Board authorizes bid waiver and up to $432,000 contract with Ciorba Group for Green Bay Road Phase I
Summary
Trustees approved a bid waiver and a professional services agreement with the Ciorba Group of Chicago for Phase I engineering of the Green Bay Road project, citing Ciorba's prior experience with the Village and grant work; the contract was authorized not to exceed $432,000.
Village Manager Kathy Thake briefed the board on the recommendation from the Public Works Committee to waive bidding and contract with the Ciorba Group for Phase I engineering for the Green Bay Road Enhancement Project. Thake cited Ciorba's familiarity with the project, prior successful assignments (including the Village Streetscape Project), and grant application experience as reasons for the recommendation. She said future phases are expected to be competitively bid to meet external funding requirements.
Trustees asked questions about the need for a bid waiver and Ciorba's prior experience. Manager Thake and President Kaz explained that Ciorba will provide substantial stakeholder coordination during design and grant processes. The board approved a resolution authorizing a bid waiver and execution of a professional services agreement with the Ciorba Group for Phase I design services in an amount not to exceed $432,000.
