Public Works committee to consider IPWMAN participation, water‑main design and multiple contract change orders
Summary
The Public Works and Utilities Committee will consider multiple infrastructure contracts and intergovernmental cooperation items, including participation in IPWMAN and design work for a Shoe Factory Road water main replacement.
The Village of Hoffman Estates Public Works and Utilities Committee will meet April 28 and consider multiple infrastructure and procurement items that would affect village operations if approved.
Why it matters: proposed items include intergovernmental cooperation, water‑main replacement design, and contract change orders for ongoing capital projects; approvals would authorize expenditures and allow projects to proceed to construction or further design.
Items listed on the committee agenda (as read at the April 21 board meeting): - Approval of an ordinance to permit village work on Illinois state rights of way. - Approval of an intergovernmental agreement to participate in the Illinois Public Works Mutual Aid Network (IPWMAN). - Design engineering agreement with Baxter & Woodman, Inc. (Chicago) for the Shoe Factory Road water main replacement; contract value to be determined. - Authorization of change order No. 1 with Hoare Construction, Inc. for $60,000 (unspecified project in packet). - Authorization of change order No. 2 to Marthem Construction, Inc. for Pfizer lift station improvements in an amount not to exceed $12,266.32. - Authorization of change order No. 1 to the existing order with Linco Equipment (Maryville, Indiana) in an amount not to exceed $20,000 and delegation to the village manager of authority to approve additional change orders up to $10,000. - Award of a contract for Village Hall window replacements and caulking to Fox Valley Glass, Inc. (Schaumburg), the lowest qualified bidder, in an amount not to exceed $69,800. - Authorization for police facility boiler replacements to Advantage Mechanical, Inc. (McHenry), the lowest qualified bidder, not to exceed $197,308.
Committee reports to be received and filed include monthly reports from Public Works and the Engineering Division. Several items reference specific vendor names and dollar amounts; the board read the agenda and directed committee review on April 21.
What’s next: the committee will convene on April 28 for discussion, public comment and potential action. If the committee approves items, individual contract awards and change orders will return to the board or be executed per procurement rules.
