9. VILLAGE MANAGER'S REPORT
9.1 Motion to accept the lowest cost, responsive bid for the 2023 Water Main Replacement
Project in an amount not to exceed $4,550,131.08.
Director of Public Works Sean Dorsey provided background information, bid results and staff
recommendation on the 2023 Water Main Replacement Project.
Mr. Dorsey stated this year's project includes the replacement of 12,211 feet of existing 6" water
main. The locations include Emmerson, Debbie, Jerry, Lancaster Avenue from Lonnquist Boulevard
to Golf Road, Elm Street from Highland Avenue to Thayer Street, School Street from Gregory Street
to Central Road and Owen Street from Gregory Street to Central Road. Mr. Dorsey stated the
project also includes 37 new fire hydrants, 2,697 water service reconnections, abandonment of
exiting 6" water main and surface restoration.
Mr. Dorsey stated bids were received from six firms. Gerardi Sewer and Water Co. of Addison,
Illinois submitted the lowest cost, responsive bid. Gerardi's qualifications and references were
checked by staff and were found to be satisfactory. Staff requested a 10% contingency to address
unforeseen issues. Mr. Dorsey stated staff recommends acceptance of the bid for the 2023 Water
Main Replacements Project in an amount not to exceed $4,550,131.08
There was no discussion.
Motion by John Matuszak, second by Michael Zadel to accept the lowest cost, responsive

9.2 Motion to accept the lowest cost, responsive bid for the 2023 Cured -In -Place -Pipe
(CIPP) Sewer Lining Project in an amount not to exceed $1,700,000.
Mr. Dorsey presented background information, bid results and staff recommendation for the
2023 Cured -in -Place Sewer Lining project.
Mr. Dorsey provided a brief background of this annual project that requires rehabilitating
existing sewer main segments by inserting a cured -in-place liner inside a host pipe segment.
The scope of work for the 2023 project year includes 52 pipe segments totaling 14,644 lineal
feet of combined and separate sanitary sewer rated as category 3 and category 2. Mr. Dorsey
noted category 4 pipe segments were all rehabilitated in 2021 and category 5 were completed
in 2018. The pipe diameter for this year ranges from 8" to 42".
The 2023 project included 4,391 lineal feet of combined sewer main rated as category 3 and
6,591 lineal feet of category 2 -combined sewer main. The 2023 project also includes an
additional 3,662 lineal feet of separate sanitary sewer to be lined.
Mr. Dorsey stated the Village typically participates in this bid through the Municipal Partnering
Initiative; a collective of Cook, Lake and DuPage County Municipalities that leverage bulk
purchasing and workload sharing to reduce costs. Mr. Dorsey stated the Village of Mount
Prospect usually comprises 25%-45% of the total bid. Staff consulted with Baxter & Woodman
4
about separating from the joint partnering initiative in hopes to receive better pricing as a single
bid. Baxter & Woodman agreed that separating from the joint bid would benefit the Village due to
the unknowns of the other municipalities' projects.
Six contractors submitted bids for this project. The lowest cost, responsive bid was summitted by
Hoerr Construction. Hoer Construction has completed several past cured -in-place projects in the
Village and staff found their work to be exceptional.
Mr. Dorsey answered questions from the Board:
• The Village's decision to opt -out of the joint partnering initiative this year does not prohibit
participation in the future
• This process also seals any cracks or gaps found in the pipes.
No further discussion.

9.3 Motion to accept lowest cost, responsive bid for the 2023 Street Resurfacing Program in
an amount not to exceed $5,729,487.94.
Mr. Dorsey presented background information, bid results and staff recommendation.
Mr. Dorsey stated the purpose of this project is to maintain all Village streets on an average of
20 -year service life cycle. This year's project includes 9 miles of streets; 2.46 miles will involve
resurfacing the 2022 and 2023 Water Main Replacement streets. Mr. Dorsey stated in the past,
water main replacement projects included the asphalt street resurfacing as part of the contract.
To reduce the asphalt cost and allow additional water main to be replaced, Village staff included
the street resurfacing portion in this bid.
Two bids were received for this project. Arrow Road Construction Company submitted the lowest
cost responsive bid. Arrow Road Construction has completed street improvement and street
resurfacing projects for the Village in the past and their work has been satisfactory. Staff
contacted the three contractors who picked up bid documents but did not submit. Mr. Dorsey
stated busy workloads, scheduling and high trucking costs were cited as the reasons.
Mr. Dorsey stated staff recommends approval of the subject bid to Arrow Road
Construction in an amount not to exceed $5,729,487.94.
No discussion.
