Village reviews pavilion bids, park furniture options and mutual‑aid storm response
Summary
Public works presented MEP quotes for the Pavilion at the Square, with Glady's quote at $58,910 (including mini‑split) against Houlihan at $63,399; the committee discussed quotes, furniture options for the pavilion, a skate‑equipment inquiry for Hendrickson Park, and Illinois Public Works mutual aid arrangements for storm response. Action items were referred to the Monday board agenda.
Public works presented Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing quotes for the Pavilion at the Square and compared multiple bids. Staff reported Glady's total was $58,910 (including plumbing, mini split installation and allowances), while Houlihan quoted $63,399; committee members discussed included footage allowances and trench excavation responsibilities and asked staff to place the item on the next board agenda for formal action.
Trustees also discussed a resident inquiry about adding skate equipment at Hendrickson Park; staff suggested prioritizing playground replacements and a trustee agreed to provide a parks equipment condition report at the next meeting.
The committee debated furniture options for the pavilion’s interior — movable table & chair sets (approximately $1,100 per set) versus heavier, permanent picnic tables (up to $3,700) — and asked staff to return with weights, layout and pricing for about six sets to fit under the pavilion.
Public works briefed the committee on the Illinois Public Works Mutual Aid Network (IPWMAN), describing typical mutual‑aid expectations (up to three days of assistance without charge) and possible state/federal reimbursement pathways if assistance extends and qualifies for FEMA or other aid.
The quotes and procurement details will be placed on the upcoming Monday board agenda for formal motions and votes.
