By going with Amoco, I believe we do have an assured supply of fu,el, but I also believe that we will have 11-ttle influence over the price and based upon their past performance, we cannot be assured they will pass the best price on to us. of with Miller does have a degree of risk because they are essentially a middleman and do not nave control of their own supply. Miller, however, appears to offer the best price stability. The Village has topped off all of its fuel to this week and there is no pressing need to make a final decision at this time. I do not believe that we would get any better p 3- if the r matter were re -bid, but I do believe that if ces, I I Mr. Weeks and I were to approach more suppliers, we might be able to negotiate a more attractive price or at least develop an interest in additional suppliers. I recommend that the Mayor and the Board reject all bids for not meeting specifications and allthorIze theMianager and Director of Public Works to recontact all., suppliers in an II attempt to negotiate a purchse. As a second alternative, I recommend the Mayor and the Board award the purchase for this yearls supply of gasoline and di-esel fuel to Miller of Barrington pursuant to their bid tabulation of April 28, 1981. While their bid in total exceeds the Amoco bid by some $1,109, their willingness to tie their prices to the 011gram price service offers us 0,11 greatest price. stability over the year.

The intent of this condition was to tie our fuel prices to market conditions rather than the fortunes or misfortunes of any given SUP�)Iier. S U BJ E'CT - 01 BiC r Gasoline/Diesel Fuel Page 2 Amoco Oil Company have stated that they are riot quoting to Platts Midwest,, but only to their current price policy which is price on date of delivery, FOB delivered. They are further suggesting that we adhere to thei,r Schedule A Products and Quantities, which in effect puts us on a quarterly alloca- tion for a total year's supply of 105,000 gallons of product, Franson Oil is also not quoting from Platts Midwest, and he states, "We purchase our premium diesel from Standard Oil Company. We will use them as a price guide". Miller Barrington Oil Company Inc. is a jobber bidding a Mobil oil branded product. Their bid is using the Platt Oilgram, guidelines on a listing of April 22, 1981. Oilgram Service listing data as follows-, Regular Leaded Gasoline - $1.071 Gal. Premium Unleaded - $1.111 Gal. Premium Diesel Fuel - $1.047 Gal. We have not gone on the market and bid gasoline for several years, as we had been under a Federal mandated allocation control since 1973. These con- trols were lifted by President Reagan in January of 1981. One of the con- cerns I had in the preparation of this bid was that if another fuel shortage should occur, we would probably have a better guarantee of a fuel supply,if we had a contract with a major oil supplier vs. a jobber who buys the product basically on the open market. For that reason one of the bid conditions stated. - "That a statement be furnished stating that the bidder is a major oil company supplier and to include location of the termi- nal from which the product will. be delivered". Notices were placed in the local newspaper advertising this bid, and in addition 14 invitational bids were sent out to all major oil companies. To summarize no bid entirely met our conditions and yet all oil companies had equal opportunity to bid. The bid as submitted by Amoco Oil Company is sub- ject to changes at their descretion and at will. This translates into a no guaranteed price p.rotection on the bid which could be construed as a "no bid". The bid submitted by Miller Barrington Oil Company does offer a degree of price protection in that it can only fluctuate with the Platt Oilgram listing. This jobber is affiliated with Mobil Oil. Cof-npany in some ma"riner and they state that they have been in business for over 40 years. If they would have to go on the open market to fullfill our needs we still only pay Platt Oil - gram, price plus per bid an additional .03� per gc--allon on regular leaded gas- oline, .07� per gallon on premium unleaded gasoline, and .10� per gallon on diesel fuel. Although the foregoing analysis is less than satisfactory, in my opinion, it would be questionable whether a rebid would achieve a better response from the suppliers.

Under Section 1 - Scope and Section 11, the specifications call for a meter with a nutating disc. The Badger meter meets that specification while the Kent meter has an oscillating piston. Historically, the, present Village water scl supply has a number of wells that pump sand, and with a piston type meter there is increased probability, that the meter ill stop because of close tolerances, sand, or any other foreli-gnmaterial which could stop the complete flow o water. This will, not occur with a nutating type disc. 2. Section 4.3 -(fur specifications call for a hydrostatic test pressure of 450 PSI, and the Kent meter is only rated at 300 PSI. Bid Results "ater Meters Page 2 addition to not meeting the above specifications, there would be an added financial burden put on our water meter budget by introducing a new meter into our system. We presently have approximately 11,000 water 0 meters 'in service, of which 85% are of the Badger type. To take on a new meter would also require the purchase of an inventory of repair parts. have had piston type meters in service many years ago and we experienced many problems with accuracy of the units, and complaints were received that they were noisy. We periodically purchase other brand meters on a limited basis to test their reliability, and until the Kent meter could pass this test period with a limited exposure, I would not want to commit the Village to a ma3or change. Based on the above, I recommend that the next lowest bid as submitted by Badger Meter, Inc. be accepted. This expenid,iture is budgeted in the fiscal year 1981-82 budget on page 110 - "New Meters, $35,000 The estimated quantities as outlined in this bid amounted to $24,918.44.

Mount Prospect, Illinois Ilk" INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: APRIL 30, 1981 The Tree Farm Estates Subdon has been a problem for us for nearly two years since the original developer, Stape, effectively closed down operations for one reason or another. The Staff and I have had numerous meetings with Stape, the financial institutions, residents of the Subdivision, prospective purchasers of property in the Subdivision., and prospective new developers. As a policy matter, the Village has not allowed itself to become a third -party mediator in the private disputes between seller and purchaser. We continue to maintain that policy. We have, however, taken an aggressive posture, where legally authorized., with the financial institutions and the developers. We are prepared, at this time, to offer a partial solution as it affects the outstanding public improvements. We have reached agreement with St. Paul Financial Development Corporation, who retains ownership control of 34 lots in Tree Farm Estates. This agreement will allow the Village of Mount Prospect to use the remaining improvement escrow to install certain public improvements and make repairs to certain existin•g public improvements.. The Village is now holding $58,260.59 and we would use this for the completion of all public improvements including the installation of *dewalks and our inspection fees. St. Paul would be some si responsible for the final pavement of the road-�-7ays. Subsequent purchasers of individual lots would be required to install the necessary parkway improvements and sidewalks in front of their homes]-tes. St. Paul has developer/purchasers for the 34 lots under their control, The Village took bids earlier this week for those improvements that would fall within our ibility and we are, therefore, assured that we can responsi live up to our part of the bargain within the limits of the escrow funds. While this is not a complete solution to the problems in Tree Farm, it will assure the neighborhood sure completion of the necessary public improvements, the regrading of vacant lots, and allow new developers to work towards completion of the Subdivision. We will still have some remaining problems on three lots under the effective control of Stape and the overall drainage easement question that must be worked out with the MSD. In this instance, a partial solution is better than the current stalemate and, therefore, I recommend that the Mayor and the Board authorize the Mayor and the Clerk to execute an agreement between the Village of Mount Prospect and St. Paul Financial Development Corporation for the completion of certain public improvements in Tree Farm Estates Subdivision. The acreemenp is being drafted by I 0 our attorneys and St. Paul and should be'avallable at the meeting Tuesday. The Village's responsibility is limited to funds in the escrow agreement and no General Tax Revenues will be used. rl'EUANCE L. BURGHARD TLB/rcw C1.

Pedersen & Houpt have proposed a retainer of $1,500.00 a month to cover attendance at regular rneetings of the Mayor and Board of Trustees, preparation of ordinances and resolutions, routine consultation with Village Staff, and the review of * routine contracts and other normal day-to-day matters of the Village. Litigation, attendance at special meetings, major annexation agreements and major Code revisions would be covered at an hourly rate outside the retainer. 'The hourly rate for partners is $75.00 per hour and $65.00 per hour for associates. While this language is broad in nature, I believe it suits our purposes during this transition and provides competitive market rates for similar services. Based upon earlier directions of the Mayor and Board, I have communicated our - intent to Pedersen & Houpt'and they will be in attendance at the meeting as General Counsel next Tuesday.

Geick VillaqCif Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: APRIL 30, 1981 SUBJECT: WELL 17 ENGINEERING CONTRACT In January of 1980, the Village entered into a contract for the design and inspection of Well 17 (North Elmhurst Road) with Ralph Gross and Sons for a fee not to exceed $15,000 for design and $15,000 for inspection. As the project nears completion, the engineer finds that his time and charges for inspection have exceeded the contract limitation and requested an additional $7,500. While review of that contract addition request is continuing., I can justify no more than $4,000 as an increase for inspection. I am placing the matter on the Agenda anticipating that negotiations can be completed by that time, however, if I am not satisfied about several matters incomplete as of the writing of this memo, I-,*11re�_quest another deferral.

The Resolution is to be acted upon by the Agency's Board of Directors. These docujmnts have not been approved by the Board of Directors and, therefore, it is possible that some changes may be made to them. Should your Corporate Authorities approve the enclosures by formal action before they are approved by the Board of Directors, your approval should be given "subject to" the Board of Directors' final approval. The documents should be considered In the sequence noted in the upper left corners, i.e., 1 of 3, 2 of 3, and 3 of 3. Please note that your Municipality needs only to act on 2 of 3 and 3 of 3. When approved by all Member Municipalities these documents will serve to arrend the basic Agency Agreement to provide methods to cope with Members who default on their payments to the Agency and/or expenses which arise by reason of a Member's withdrawing from the Agency. Both provisions serve also to anplify general provisions already included in the existing Agreeraent. Finally, the Executive Committee has recommended favorable consider- ation of the enclosures by the Board of Directors and ,it is pleased to recommend approval of the Amendments by your Municipality.
