Roselle approves street, sidewalk and sewer contracts; board sets 0% interest on Walnut Street recapture
Summary
The Village Board voted to authorize multiple public-works contracts, approved accounts payable and amended a recapture ordinance to a 0% interest rate for a Walnut Street water-main extension recapture agreement.
The Village of Roselle Village Board on March 10 approved a package of public-works contracts and purchases and amended a recapture ordinance to set a 0% interest rate for a Walnut Street water-main extension recapture agreement.
The board voted to: authorize a contract with Schroeder Asphalt Services Inc. for the 2025 street improvement program not to exceed $1,314,560.61 and a related change order to increase scope by $65,439.39; approve a contract with Globe Construction Inc. for the 2025 sidewalk and curb replacement program not to exceed $195,000; adopt a resolution authorizing execution of an agreement with Performance Pipelining, Inc. for a 2025 sanitary sewer lining project in the amount of $603,513.20; and award design, engineering and bidding services for the Kennedy Force Main rehabilitation to RJN Group Inc. for $199,300, with staff noting an anticipated future construction budget of about $1,375,000.
The board also approved a consent-agenda bundle that included a master license agreement for a village fiber pass, the purchase of parkway trees through a joint purchasing cooperative (not to exceed $79,000), a rock-salt purchase through the State of Illinois cooperative, and a purchase of a Public Works generator from Interstate Power Systems through Sourcewell for $113,692. All consent-agenda items were approved in a single motion.
Trustee Chelsea Perkowski moved the street improvement contract and related items. After roll-call votes, the motions passed unanimously. The board then amended a pending recapture ordinance for a Walnut Street water-main extension, replacing a 1.5% interest rate with 0% interest; the amendment passed on roll call and the final recapture motion carried.
The board approved the accounts-payable list for March 10, 2025, in the amount of $1,309,055.55 by roll call. Several votes were unanimous by the roll-call procedure recorded in the meeting.
In discussion, staff said some Cook County and CIS revenue sources would fund parts of the sanitary and force-main work. Public-works staff clarified that pretreatment (brine/“bridal mix”) is applied primarily to primary routes and around schools, and that secondary and court streets may not receive the same pretreatment on every event due to route prioritization.
No legal challenges, amendments to procurement procedures, or dissenting votes were recorded in the public minutes; individual trustees asked routine questions about mileage resurfaced, future budgets for the Kennedy Force Main work and interest waivers on recapture agreements.
The board ended its regular business and moved to an executive session for mandated minute review under the Illinois code.
