have standardized on this engine to reduce our repair parts inventory. Vermeer-Midwest bid a
Catapillar engine with less horsepower than our specifications called for and we would have to
stock additional engine repair parts if this unit were to be purchased.
Discussion
During the past couple of months the Forestry Division has been testing different manufacturer's
style chippers prior to writing the bid specifications. The Forestry Division has worked both the
Morbark model 13 and the Vermeer model 1400 chippers that were bid. Their recommendation
~-~.~'~s-for.the Morbark Model 13. The Forestry Division found the MOrbark'~3~r
controls, making it easier and safer to operate as well as it out performed the Vermeer Model
1400. During the operation of the Vermeer Model 1400 the unit developed a major oil leak in
the plastic hydraulic tank. After talking with the Forestry Division about the operation of each
unit, I viewed both units and found the Morbark model 13 to be a more rugged built unit using
welded steel as compared to the Vermeer model 1400 that used fiberglass to shroud the engine
and plastic for a hydraulic oil reservoir. Also, the Morbark model 13 has been in production
since 1994 and the Vermeer model 1400 was just introduced this year.
Bid Recommendation
I recommend accepting the lowest qualified bid for the proposed purchase of one 2003 Mobark
13" trailer mounted brush chipper per our specifications, as submitted by Alexander Equipment
Company, Lisle, Illinois, at a cost not to exceed $21,000.00 which includes trade-in. Funds for
this proposed purchase are available in account 6707709-660115, page 294, of the current
budget. The existing 4521 will be used as a trade-in versus being sold at the NWMC auction.
Our past experience has shown these types of specialized equipment have a higher resale
value as a trade-in.

Discussion
The budget item for traffic signal maintenance from the 2003 Proposed Budget includes the cost
of routine traffic signal maintenance as well as emergency signal repair resulting from accidents
or equipment failure. Not only does this budget item include the eight intersections maintained
by the Village but also accounts for intersections maintained by IDOT and Cook County in which
the Village must reimburse a percentage back to these agencies.
In addition to the routine maintenance and emergency work that will be the responsibility of the
contractor, the Village has identified two intersections under our maintenance that will need to be
up~aded with new equipment. These improvements were scheduled to be done in 2002 but due
to delay with receiving approval from IDOT, this work must be carried over to 2003. Staff has
estimated the cost for this work to be $78,000.00 which will be carried over from the 2002
Budget.
age two...
2003 Trat'fic Signal Maintenance Contract
November 26, 2002
The total bid for this proposed contract reflects the predictable cost of the routine maintenance
work of the eight intersections and establishes hourly prices for the unpredictable emergency
work. The final award to the contractor must also include funds for emergency work as well as
unexpected replacement of older equipment. For 2003, Staff estimates this amount to be
$40,000.00.
Therefore, the award price to the contractor should be as follows:
Routine Maintenance Work $22,170.00
Emergency Work $40,000.00
Scheduled Replacement Work - $78,000.00
Total $140,170.00
Funding for the routine maintenance, emergency and replacement work has been requested in the
2003 Proposed Budget. With the catty over amount of $78,000.00 from the 2002 Budget and
$90,000.00 proposed in the 2003 Budget on page 246, there are sufficient funds allocated for this
contract.
Recommendation
Although the low total bid is $22,170.00, it is recommended that the low bidder, Aldridge
Electric, Inc., be awarded the 2003 Traffic Signal Maintenance Contract in an amount not to
exceed $140,170.00. The contract will cover the costs for routine work, emergency work and the
replacement work scheduled for 2003. The remaining funds in the account will be allocated for
the reimbursement costs associated with traffic signal maintenance by other agencies.
Aldridge Electric, Inc. has been the Village's traffic signal maintenance contractor for the past
four years. Their work has been acceptable.
rd
Please include this item on the December 3 Village Board Meeting Agenda.

ACCEPT NWMC/SUBURBAN PURCHASING COOPERATIVE BiD FOR
UTILITY TRUCK
Backqround
In the current budget, there are funds available to replace units 2745 ($28,500).
2745 is a 1996 Chevrolet Blazer utility truck. This utility truck is uSed by the Public Works
Director for daily work transportation and to respond to Village emergencies throughout the
year.
Replacement Schedule
2745 was purchased in 1995. The replacement schedule for this type of unit is 6 years or
50,000 miles. 2745 has just entered its eighth year of service and has logged 107,000 miles.
This vehicle is not equipped with an hour meter, because it does not idle for long periods of
time.
Life Cycle Cost Analysis
Life cycle cost analysis has been completed for this vehicle and is attached for your review. The
optimum economic replacement point for this vehicle has been calculated at 3 years. The
modified optimum economic replacement point has been calculated at 7 years.
Other Factors
The role assigned to this vehicle mandates reliability. Normal maintenance has been performed
through out the vehicles years of service, without any major repairs being required or long
periods of down time for the first six and half years of service. Within the last two months, the
vehicle has needed the replacement of the engine intake manifold gaskets, the engine head
gaskets, and the water pump. We anticipate the replacement of the transmission, heater core,
and the air conditioning evaporator core will be needed. Estimated cost of replacement will be
$2,250.00 which does not include labor cost.
Replacement Recommendation
It is my recommendation that a replacement for 2745 be purchased during the 2002 budget
year.

RFP FOR COMBINED SEWER SYSTEM EVALUATION STUDY
Background
In the current budget, staff has requested funds to inspect and evaluate the Village-
owned combined sewer system. Combined sewers can be described as sewers that
accept both sanitary and storm water flows.
In general, areas served by combined sewers tend to be older neighborhoods. These
types of sewers were commonly used in communities built between 1900 and the mid-
1950s. Most of the combined sewer system in the Village was originally owned and
operated by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago
(MWRDGC). Jurisdiction, and maintenance responsibilities, transferred to the Village in
the mid-1970s.
Since the Village acquired ownership, the combined sewer system has performed very
well. There have been almost no incidents of dry weather surcharge events and the
incidence rate for wet weather surcharges has been significantly lower than the rates
found in separate sanitary sewer areas. Presently, staff is unaware of any significant
structural or capacity problems with in the combined sewer area.
However, it is poignant to note that most of the sewer regulations promulgated over the
course of the last three (3) decades have focused efforts on removing excess clear
water from separate sanitary sewers and/or reducing pollutant levels in stream
discharges. These rules have had a huge impact on how the Village has allocated
resources to operate and maintain sewer systems. In particular, Village efforts to
comply with these regulations have resulted in a comprehensive examination of the
separate sanitary sewer system and have prompted recent efforts to inventory and
assess the condition of the separate storm sewer system.
Most of these ruleS have not been applicable to the Village's cOmbined sewer system.
The Village's combined sewer system was specifically designed to accept storm water
flows and it does not discharge to any creeks or streams. Therefore, by design, it has
eluded most of the recent mandates devised by regulators. As a consequence, the
combined sewer system has not been subject to the same level of scrutiny as other
sewer systems.
Page 2 of 3
RFP for Combined Sewer System Evaluation Study
November 25, 2002
Staff asserts that maintenance of the combined sewer system has been prudent and
prompt but also acknowledges that it cannot be fairly characterized as proactive or
preventative. More importantly, staff is concerned that some components of the
combined sewer system may have reached, or soon will reach, the end of their useful
lives. In an effort to minimize the potential for significant failure or service disruption,
staff proposes to assess the current condition of the entire combined sewer system.
This assessment will then be utilized to program future capital improvements or
maintenance initiatives within the combined sewer system (if needed).
Staff estimates that the Village owns and maintains approximately 42 miles of combined
sewer, which represents approximately 45% of the entire Village-owned wastewater
collection system. These sewers range in size from 8" clay tile to 60" diameter reinforced
concrete pipe. An estimated 920 manholes, 1,450 inlets, and 1,450 catch basins are
installed in this system. Attachment A contains a map depicting the combined sewered
area.
The scope of this proposed project includes the preparation of bid documents necessary
to clean, televise, and record the inspection of all combined sewer main lines. In
addition, the scope also includes the creation of a computerized dataset containing
specified attribute information relating to combined sewer system mains, manholes,
inlets, catch basins, and other appurtenances. Specified attribute information will
include structural annotations such as pipe size, pipe material, manhole depth, manhole
construction material, frame type, etc. The scope will also require a written report that
summarizes project activities and establishes a condition rating, recommended repair
methodology, and proposed repair budget for all assets inspected. Finally, the scope
also requires the creation of a GIS map depicting the combined sewer system. This
map will be derived from global positioning points garnered by a field survey and
augmented by the attribute information dataset. A copy of the request for proposals
utilized to procure these services is included as Attachment B.
Request for Proposals
On Friday, October 25, sealed proposals to conduct a combined sewer system
evaluation and mapping project were received. Three (3) requests for proposals were
distributed to local firms experienced in sewer system evaluation and GIS mapping. All
three (3) firms responded. The results are noted below:
FIRM FEE
Baxter & Woodman $245,000
Metcalf & Eddy
Eadh Tech
$274,020
$700,000
Discussion
Baxter & Woodman submitted the apparent lowest cost proposal Baxter & Woodman is
a civil engineering consulting firm headquartered in Crystal Lake, illinois. They have
recently performed similar sewer system evaluation studies and GIS mapping projects
for the Village of Hoffman Estates, the Village of Algonquin, the City of Woodstock, the
Downers Grove Sanitary District, the Village of Barrington, and the Village of Itasca. All
references indicated that Baxter & Woodman provided satisfactory performance.
age 3 of 3
RFP for Combined Sewer System Evaluation Study
November 25, 2002
Baxter & Woodman have not provided engineering services to the Village of Mount
Prospect within the last ten (10) years. However, during the 1980s, they provided
design and construction engineering services on roadway and streetlight improvement
projects. Their performance on these projects was acceptable.
Recommendation
I recommend accepting the apparent lowest cost proposal to conduct a combined sewer
system evaluation study and mapping project as submitted by Baxter & Woodman of
Crystal Lake, Illinois. I also recommend that staff be authorized to enter into a contract
for said services with Baxter & Woodman for an amount not to exceed $245,000.
In addition, also ask that the Village Board be petitioned to grant the Village Manager
discretionary authority to increase the contract award by a 15% contingency or an
amount not to exceed $281,750. Staff requests this consideration because the contract
award is based on estimated footage of combined sewer main line pipe and an
estimated quantity of structures. Estimates were based on available paper records and
have not been validated by field verification. Therefore, it is feasible that significant
quantity variances may exist.
Funds for this proposed contract are available in account number 6105510-680010
($750,000) on page 258 of the current budget. Funds remaining in this account will be
utilized for a contract to clean and televise the combined sewer system.

Article 1. Notice
The Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois, hereafter referred to as the Village, is soliciting proposals for
a contractual commitment to a combined sewer system evaluation study and a combined sewer
system survey and mapping project. The proposal must specify a lump sum fee for the entire project
as well as a schedule of costs broken down by category. Th9 Village will require the development of
technical bid documents necessary to effect the delivery of high quality, full color DVD Video
documenting the closed-circuit television inspection of combined sewer systems in the project area.
In addition, the Village will require the creation and delivery of a computerized dataset containing
specified attribute information obtained from the visual inspection of combined sewer system mains,
manholes, inlets, catch basins, and other appurtenances. The Village will also require a xvritten report
delivered in both hard copy and electronic format that summarizes project activities and establishes a
condition rating assessment for all assets inspected. The Village is also requesting the creation and
· delivery of an ESRI Arc/Info Version 8.0.2 or later coverage containing ail assets tributary to the
combined sewer system. This coverage will he derived from global positioning points garnered by a
field survey.
Background
Section 1.01 History. The Village of Mount Prospect is primarily a residential community of
56,000 people situated approximately 30 miles northwest of downtown Chicago. Located entirely
within Cook County, the Village occupies approximately 13 square miles of land straddled between
portions of Elk Grove and Wheeling townships. The Village was initially settled during the late 19th
century and was incorporated as an Illinois municipality in 1917. Shortly thereafter, combined sewer
systems were installed to service growing residential and commercial developments. Combined
sewer systems continued to be installed as the Village grew until the sanitary and storm components
were separated during the late 1950s. All combined sewered areas are tributary the Metropolitan
Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago. The Village d6~s not own or maintain any combined
sewer overflows.
Section 1.02 Target Area. The target area for this project is largely contiguous and is situated
around the geographic center of the Village. The attached Contract Map presents a graphical
approximation of the target area.
Section 1.03 Pipe and Manhole Inventory Estimates. The Village estimates that it owns and
maintains approximately 42 miles of combined sewer ranging in size from 8" clay tile to 60" diameter
reinforced concrete pipe. An estimated 920 manholes are installed in the target area. Table 2.1
depicts the 14 different pipe sizes installed in the combined sewer system and provides an estimated
quantity of pipe for each size category. In addition, Village staff estimates that there are
approximately t,450 inlets and 1,450 catch basins in the project area.

ASBESTOS REMOVAL CHANGE ORDER REQUEST
On November 6, the Village Board approved a contractor, LVI, for the removal of asbestos
from the Senior Center. The original scope of work was defined through testing of floor and
ceiling tiles throughout the building. There was also additional testing of some pipe
installation and fire proofing material sprayed on the underside of roof decking. Once the
demolition process started additional floor tile was exposed that needed to be removed and
once ceiling tiles were removed additional pipe installation was also exposed. The suspect
areas were tested and found to contain asbestos, therefore, LVI was asked to return and
remove the additional asbestos. Demolition cannot be completed until all asbestos has
been removed from the building.
The original contract with LVI was approved for $10,680. The additional work requiring a
change order amounts to $2293. I am requesting Village Board approval for an additional
$2293 for LVI for additional asbestos abatement work. If you have any questions, please
contact me.
