Board approves McGuire Road resurfacing proposal that adds aprons at unchanged price
Summary
The Village of Makanda Board approved a revised resurfacing proposal from E.T. Simonds for McGuire Road that adds driveway aprons without raising the previously approved bid; work is expected in April, trustees said.
The Village of Makanda Board of Trustees voted Feb. 4 to approve a revised proposal from contractor E.T. Simonds to resurface McGuire Road and add driveway aprons without increasing the previously approved bid.
Trustee Allen asked whether aprons were included in the original bid; after village staff and contractor representatives conducted six core drills and adjusted the scope, trustees were told the bid amount would remain the same and the new proposal would include aprons. Trustee Wolff moved to approve the revised proposal and Trustee Allen seconded; a voice vote carried with all members present voting yes.
Trustees said the work is likely to be scheduled in April. The board did not record a dollar amount in the minutes. The approved motion was procedural acceptance of the contractor's revised proposal rather than a separate appropriation.
Speakers: Trustee Allen; Trustee Wolff; E.T. Simonds representatives.
Votes and next steps: The board approved the revised proposal by voice vote; the village will coordinate scheduling and notify affected residents before construction.
