Jaycees and said that they couldn't have done it without the Village contributions of |

DuPage Theater Demolition Contract (Waiver of Bids) |
Request for a waiver of bids and award of a contract to Heneghan Wrecking in the |
amount of $214,950 for the DuPage Theater Demolition Contract. Public Act 85-1295 |
does not apply. (DISTRICT #4) |
Trustee Soderstrom said he had requested these items be pulled. He said that he did |
not have a problem with bids or the RFP, but he said he thought that considering these |
two issues at this time is putting the cart before horse. He said that the Redevelopment |
Agreement should be in place first. He gave the example of Special Assessments |
where the actual Special Assessment is in place before we award contracts. He pointed |
out that the same should hold true in this situation, until the agreement is in place, it is |
premature to demolish the building. He mentioned that Trustee Tross and himself didn't |
feel that the Village should do the RFP, that once we have a redevelopment agreement |
Mr. Curto and Mr. Coffey should take care of the demolition. He said that he had been |
specific that the Village could pay for the demolition, but the developer should handle it. |
Trustee Tross concurred and said the Board needed more information to be placed on |
the dais. He said if we pass this now still nothing can be done until December. He said |
that they had seen nothing about the redevelopment agreement and when we have it, it |
needs to be iron clad faultless. |
Village Manager William Lichter explained that there are two issues; the timing of the |
work and who will perform the work. He said that Trustees Soderstrom and Tross did |
indicate that the demolition should be after the redevelopment agreement but there are |
concerns about the safety of the building especially approaching another winter. He |
said that there are three options one would be to move forward and this could be |
completed by October, these specifications were requested by Mr. Coffey and the |
contractor could do the deomolition before winter. Another way is to have Mr. Curto |
work with Henegan prior to approval of the agreement and the third option would be to |
wait for the redevelopment agreement. The TIF extension is in place but can't be |
approved until December. We could wait and keep an eye on the building. We have |
had these concerns for some time with falling bricks and the integrity of the barrel roof. |
He advised them that there will be an invoice coming for the specifications by Curto, |
which would have had to be done whether we did the demoltion or they did the |
demolition. Mr. Lichter said that the redevelopment agreement could be done with the |
approval of TIF District . |
Village Attorney Thomas Bayer said that there will be three ordinances, once the |
ordinances are filed with the County, we can approve the Redevlopment Agreement. |
He said that the agreement could be approved at the next meeting after that. President |
Mueller said that there had been some delays due to Mr. Curto's surgery. Trustee |
Soderstrom inquired as to when at least a draft form would come before the Board. Mr. |
Lichter responded that it should come before the Board at the second meeting in |
September. |
Trustee Soderstrom suggested that this matter be tabled to the 2nd meeting in |
September, saying that the Board has spent a lot of time talking about these issues, it |
would be wise to hold off on this matter until the Board sees a draft of the agreement |
and be able to make an educated decsion President Mueller asked how long the bids |
would be valid. Mr. Lichter told him 90 days. |
Trustee Florey said that he agrees with Trustees Soderstrom and Tross and asked if |
we could move forward with the redevelopment agreement before the TIF Extension |
passes. |
Attorney Bayer replied that the matter could be considred by the Plan Commission and |
an environmental due diligence can be completed while we wait. Trustee Florey asked |
if theycould approve the agreement contingent on the extension of the TIF. |
Trustee Tross said he did not want everything at the same time,putting contengencies in |
the agreement gives wiggle room and he didn't want that, he wants the agreement solid |
for both parties. He suggested the first meeting in October for these two matters, since |
we should see the draft agreement the second meeting in September. He said that we |
could request Mr. Curto to look at the option of saving items that need saving for those |
concerned with historic restoration. |
It was moved by Trustee Soderstrom, seconded by Trustee Tross, that this matter |
be tabled to the meeting of October 5, 2006. The motion carried by the following |
