t INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: VILLAGE MANAGER MICHAEL E. JANONIS
FROM: SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS & BUILDINGS PAUL BURES
DATE: APRIL 25, 2011
SUBJECT: SEALED BID RESULTS FOR THE 2011& 2012 PAVEMENT MARKING
CONTRACT (NOT TO EXCEED $52,773)
BACKGROUND
A contract is let annually for repainting markings for crosswalks, centerlines, lane dividing lines,
parking stalls, and stop bars throughout the village. Pavement markings require repainting and
installation of glass beading every two years to maintain their reflectivity. For purposes of this
contract, the village is divided into north and south sections using Central Road as the dividing
line. These areas are serviced every other year, with the exception of the downtown area and
parking lots, which are done annually. On the state highways we are only responsible for painting
some of the crosswalks and stop bars.
BID RESULTS
Sealed bids were opened at 1:00 P.M. on April 18, 2011 for the proposed contract to install
pavement markings. The pavement marking work contemplated this year will be for all areas
south of Central Road, the downtown business district, parking lots, Wolf Road, and select areas
on state highways. Four invitational bids were mailed, and a bid notice was placed in the local
paper. Also because State of Illinois Motor Fuel tax money is funding a portion of this project,
IDOT also advertised this bid in the IDOT bulletin.
Three bids were received, with bid opening results as follows:
