Discussion
All bids were reviewed to ensure that the documents had all appropriate signatures, the
appropriate bid security, and references. Tron Restoration did not provide any references for
fire hydrant painting projects.
Staff contacted Tron Restoration and requested references for hydrant painting projects they
completed that were similar in scope to this project. Tron restoration failed to provide any
references for fire hydrant painting. This project would be Tron Restoration's first fire hydrant
painting contract. Staff believes their submittal is non-responsive to the experience
requirements of the bid documents.
The second lowest -cost bidder, Go Painters of Maywood, Illinois, has all the appropriate
documents, security, signatures, and experience. The firm's submittal is responsive to the bid
documents.
In staff's opinion, the lowest -cost responsive bidder is Go Painters of Maywood, Illinois. Go
Painters has not previously worked for the Village. Staff contacted their references, and all
came back positive. These references included the painting of over 5,000 fire hydrants in
multiple municipalities throughout Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. References include the
Village of Huntley, the Village of Highland Park, the Village of Bartlett, the Village of Burr Ridge
and the Village of Munster, Indiana.
Alternatives
1. Reject the lowest -cost bid as non-responsive to the bid documents and accept the
second lowest -cost, responsive bid for the 2024-2020 Fire Hydrant Painting Program.
2. Action at the discretion of the Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board reject the lowest -cost bid for the 2024-2026 Fire
Hydrant Painting Program as non-responsive to the bid documents experience requirements
and accept the second lowest -cost, responsive bid submitted by Go Painters of Maywood,
Illinois, for an amount not to exceed $42,400 in 2024. Expenditures in subsequent years will
be limited to amounts allocated for this purpose in authorized budgets.

The pillage of Mount Prospect owns, maintains, and operates an independent water
system with approximately 2,227 fire hydrants. The hydrants to be sandblasted represent
a variety of makes from manufacturers such as Mueller, East Jordan and Traverse city.

color on hydrant caps.
The contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, materials and necessary traffic control

commuter lots, to ensure access for the contractor and to minimize or eliminate any
potential damage to vehicles.
