Wauconda awards $765,957.65 road contract; work to start after July 4
Summary
Board approved a $765,957.65 contract with Peter Baker & Sons for the 2025 street improvement project; staff said the 40‑working‑day contract should finish near Labor Day and includes an alternate storm‑sewer item and construction oversight by HMG.
Village staff told trustees that HMG completed design engineering for the 2025 street project and the bid opening produced six bids; Peter Baker & Sons was the low bidder. Staff recommended approval of a $765,957.65 contract that includes an alternate bid for additional storm‑sewer work.
Staff said work is scheduled to start after the July 4 holiday and that the contract is for 40 working days, placing expected completion around Labor Day. The village will send a mailer to notify affected residents; staff said HMG will provide construction oversight and a field engineer will be on site daily to monitor asphalt and other work.
Trustees approved the contract by roll call vote. The meeting record shows no substantive amendments to the bid award; staff noted the project is within the budgeted amount and included the oversight and alternate items in their recommendation.
The board also approved a related professional‑services agreement for HMG to provide construction oversight (FY2026 budget) for $70,000. That agreement was approved by roll call at the same meeting.
