The low bidder, Fleck's Landscape of Wheeling, Illinois, has successfully worked
for the Village in the past on stump removal (2015-17), landscape maintenance
(2015-17), turf mowing (2012-14, 2016), and snow plow damage seeding (2014-
20). They also submitted four (4) references, as required with the bid, all of which
were contacted by Village staff. All references indicated that Fleck's performed
work similar to this contract in an acceptable manner.
The contract documents include a provision which allows the contract to be
extended for a third year at 2023 bid prices, if both the contractor and Village
Staff recommends authorization of award up to the budgeted amount to allow for
quantity variances and unanticipated conditions. In this instance, a contingency of
$11,507 added to the lowest cost bid would result in a total contract award of
$60,457.00 (Base Bid: $48,950.00 + Contingency: $11,507.00 = Total
Recommended Award: $60,457.00).
Alternatives
1. Accept the second lowest cost, responsive bid for Parkway Tree Stump
removal Contract.
2. Action at discretion of Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends the Village Board award a two (2) year contract to Fleck's
Landscaping of Wheeling, IL, for parkway tree stump removal in an amount not to
exceed $60,457.
In addition, staff requests approval to extend the contract for up to one (1)
additional year beyond the initial termination date provided the contractor agrees
not to raise rates.

performed, add such incidental services as may be necessary and increase or
decrease the services to be performed to accord with such changes, including the
deduction or cancellation of any one or more or the services. Such changes shall
not be considered as a waiver of any condition of the contract nor to invalidate any
of the provisions thereof.
8. The performance of the required services shall be done under the supervision of
the Village's Director of Public Works or his/her designee who shall decide all
questions that arise as to the quality and acceptability of materials furnished,
services performed, manner of performance, acceptable fulfillment of the contract,
compensation and the disputes and mutual rights between contractors under the
Specifications.
9. If the contractor fails to begin providing the services within the specified time, or
fails to perform these services in accordance with the terms of the approved
schedule or performs the services in a manner unacceptable to the Village, or if
the contractor becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt, or makes an assignment
for the benefit of creditors, or from any other cause fails to perform the required
services in a manner required by the contract, the Village shall give notice to the
contractor and its surety in writing specifying such failure, delay, neglect, refusal
or default, and if the contractor, within a period of ten (10) calendar days after the
giving of such notice, does not proceed in accordance therewith, then the Village
shall have the full power and authority to declare the contract and the contractor in
default, and to forfeit the rights of the contractor in the contract.
10. All costs and charges incurred by the Village, together with the cost of performing

provide identification of its personnel if requested by the Village. Any contractor's
employee or representative whose employment is reasonably detrimental or
objectionable to the Village shall be transferred immediately from the work site
upon the Village's request. The exercise of this option shall not be construed as
placing the Village in charge of the performance of the services required under the
contract, or as making the Village responsible for safety. All tools or equipment
required to carry out the operations within the scope of the contract shall be
provided by the contractor, and shall meet the standards of OSHA and the State
