UPDATE
The Village is eight months into the Implementation Phase of the Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP) System project. Village staff and New World Systems
have been working diligently to configure the system, convert data from the old
software to the new system, and train end - users. Village staff will be present to
provide the Village Board a progress report and answer questions.
V. LAKE BRIARWOOD SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM EVALUATION
Late last year (2009), several residents from the Lake Briarwood residential
subdivision contacted staff to express concerns about the frequency and voracity of
basement back -ups in their neighborhood. Of particular concern to staff were
complaints about basement back -ups that occurred during dry- weather periods as
well as complaints from homeowners that have endured back -ups more than once.
In January 2010, the Village Board awarded a contract to Baxter and Woodman
consulting engineers of Crystal Lake, Illinois to perform an engineering study of the
entire Lake Briarwood area sanitary sewer basin. Internally, staff refers to the Lake
Briarwood area as Basin 37 present this report and its findings to the Village Board
at the September 28 Committee of the Whole meeting.
The report identifies a number of both private sector and public sector defects that
contribute to the substandard performance of Basin 37. The report also outlines
several corrective actions that are necessary to alleviate the area's basement back-
up and sewer surcharging problems. Appropriate staff will be on hand to answer
questions and facilitate discussion.
