Council authorizes bid documents for Cherry Street sidewalk project, targets 2027 construction
Summary
Village Engineer Andrew Rudd recommended rebidding Alternate 1 sidewalk work on Cherry Street; Council authorized Wightman to prepare bid documents with construction anticipated in 2027 using two years of budgeted sidewalk funding.
Village Engineer Andrew Rudd told the council that previously solicited bid pricing for the Cherry Street Alternate 1 sidewalk improvements is more than a year old and that the project should be rebid this year. He recommended bidding the project now with construction anticipated during the 2027 construction season and using two years of budgeted sidewalk funding.
Following discussion about scheduling, costs, and project scope, Council moved to authorize Wightman to prepare bid documents and solicit bids for Alternate 1. The motion passed on a roll call vote with all present council members voting aye.
Why it matters: rebidding will refresh contractor pricing and allow the village to pursue a larger, more contiguous sidewalk segment in 2027 rather than many small annual segments.
