CONSENT AGENDA
Action Item
A key component of the Mount Prospect Strategic Plan is to improve the Village's residential
streetlight system. 2025 street lighting improvements are targeted for Burning Bush Lane
between Kensington Road and Euclid Avenue. This section of Burning Bush Lane is currently
the third -highest ranked project on the Village's Streetlight Priority Matrix (see Village
website). The two streets ranked higher are temporarily on hold due to other near -term
projects that may affect streetlight design.
Burning Bush Lane is classified as a collector street, a neighborhood street that carries more
traffic than other local streets. Along the east side of the street near Kensington Road is
Prairie Trails School. The locations of the streetlights have not yet been determined.
Staff is seeking to enter into a contract with a consulting engineering firm for engineering
design and construction inspection services to facilitate construction of the street lighting
improvement project. The 2025 Village budget has allocated funds for engineering design and
construction inspection in 2025.
Reauest for Proposals
A request for technical and cost proposals for engineering consultant firms to provide design
and construction inspection services was posted on the Demandstar bidding website. Three
consulting engineering firms responded and submitted Technical and Cost Proposals. Each firm
was asked to provide the following information in their proposals:
1. Resumes of key personnel and related experience on similar type of projects.
2. Summary of the firm's approach to the project.
3. Staff hours estimate and cost proposal for major phases of work.
4. Project schedule.
Key tasks for each consultant:
1. Perform a field survey.
2. Prepare construction plans, specifications, and a construction cost estimate.
3. Coordinate design with utility companies.
4. Provide bidding assistance for a construction contract.
5. Provide construction staking.

Discussion
Staff has identified Ciorba Group, Inc. as the preferred consultant. Ciorba Group, Inc. has a
very strong project team with experience in design engineering for numerous residential
lighting projects in the Village of Mount Prospect. They recently completed engineering design
and construction services for the section of Burning Bush Lane from Euclid Avenue to Camp
McDonald Road. They have a very experienced professional engineering staff with a thorough
understanding of the project coordination, communication, and documentation needed to
successfully accomplish the project within the proposed schedule.
Ciorba Group, Inc. experience also extends to construction inspection services as they worked
on the previously mentioned Burning Bush Lane streetlighting project from Euclid Avenue to
Camp McDonald Road, as well as numerous other Village lighting projects. It is staff's opinion
that Ciorba Group, Inc. will provide the best product at an appropriate number of hours
dedicated to engineering design and construction inspection services.
In addition, it is the opinion of staff that Ciorba Group, Inc. has requested a reasonable,
competitive fee for requested services.
Alternatives
1. Accept proposal for engineering design and construction inspection services for the
2025 Burning Bush Lane Streetlighting Project.
2. Action at the discretion of the Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board accept the proposal from Ciorba Group, Inc. of
Chicago, Illinois to provide engineering design and construction inspection services for the
2025 Burning Bush Lane Streetlighting Project for an amount not to exceed $54,493.99.

The Village ofMount Prospect isseeking aqualified engineering firm toprepare design plans and specifications for the
installation ofnew street lighting along Burning Bush Lane between Kensington Road and EuchdA,enue Land use along
Burning Bush Lane is primarily single family residential but includes Park View Montessori School near the southern project
limit. Based on a preliminary review of the site, it appears that installation of new poles on either side of the street could
work. The final locations will be determined by proximity of existing utilities and trees. The new lighting will provide safer
conditions for motorists and pedestrians. This design wit[ be completed in accordance with the Village's Street Lighting
Program Guidelines and current Village standards, The Construction Engineering team will ensure the design isbuilt per the
plans and the contractor follows the requirements of the contract to deliver successful project.
[iorba Group'm ([iorba) Project Team will build upon experience gained from the Village's recent Burning Bush Lane'
Schoenbeck Road' and Seminole Lane projects. Experience gained from the many successful past lighting projects completed
for the Village, state agencies and Chicago area communities will be applied to this project. In addition to the design of the
street Lighting installed along Central Rood, Algonquin Road, Busse Road, Dempster Street, and Main Street within the Village
of Mount Prospect, [iorba has completed severoi lighting studies for the Village. Our experience also includes the design of
street Lighting projects for Hoffman Estates' Hanover Park, Streamwood, Tinley Park, Wheeling, Winnetka' Illinois
Department of Transportation (|DOT) and the |KinoisToKway.
Chzdbawill verify and implement the Village's desired not -to -exceed 300'foo1 pole spacing as allowed by site conditions such
as the location of existing utilities and trees, Pole locations will be selected to highlight intersections with cross streets and
the horizontal curves in Burning Bush Lune near Kensington Road' Apache Lane' Cho(o Lane, and Ivy Lane. The crossing of
McDonald Creek will be carefully considered to minimize cost and disturbance to the fences and landscaping adjacent to this
structure. Plans, specifications, and estimates will be prepared in accordance with Village, Illuminating Engineering Society
(|E5)' and |D0T recommendations for approval by the Village, Proposed tight poles will be located outside ofCook County and
|OOTright'of-vvaytoavoid the need for permits.
Experience. Our Project Team previously worked together on the Village's Bunning Bush Lane, Schoenbeck Road
and Seminole Lane lighting projects and are familiar with Village preferences and requirements. In addition, we
