Village of Lombard Legistar System

Stan Rickard distributed the Change Order Report for July, 1999. 1998 Report - 1

significant change Project # 10 - appears we will have a deduct of around $200,000.00

/will reflect in final balance. Puts change order balance at approximately 1%.

Stephen Preins: #10 Green Valley. When are we going to get results of this? Stan

Rickard: Probably in September.

1999 Projects: #1. IDOT cut us back a little/found a lot of unsuitable material & wet

weather. Large increase in excavation. Are expecting IDOT to share in some of this

expense at 50/50, but don't know yet. Joan DeStephano: Has IDOT given us funding

for this/do they have money? Stan Rickard: This is just a small amount in their scheme

of things. Also, some things have been added as far as traffic control, street light poles,

etc.

David Arnold: Why is the curb so high at St. Charles & St. Charles Place? David

Dratnol: There is a tighter radius than before. David Arnold: seems like a large amount

of restoration that needs to take place. David Dratnol: most of it is in the right of way.

John Kaforski questioned the water service lines. Stan Rickard: developers will have to

recapture on to 6 inch line. Additional stubbed in line.

#2. Stan Rickard: Engineer underestimated quantities/wet weather. David Dratnol:

underestimated quantities that would have had to be paid for by the Village anyway.

These are not charges for work that had to be redone, etc./it is an underestimate of

quantities that we would have needed anyway.

#4. Stan Rickard: 4 components of about $70,000.00 total. Explained these to

committee.

Stephen Preins: asked why 50/50 had more locations this year. Stan Rickard: very

popular because it's done monthly now.

David Arnold: question about Arno home knocked down. There is a large hole there.

Could we put in fencing there? John Burg: hole is about three feet deep not real

dangerous. John Kaforski: 3 feet deep with water could be a potentially dangerous

situation. John Burg: tried to have them put some of the dirt back in. Stan Rickard: we

will probe the hole tomorrow and will take care of this. John Kaforski: (to Stan) did you

look to see if we have the old Green Valley tapes? Stan Rickard: yes, we do. John

Kaforski: could we review these? Stan Rickard: no problem, we'll have the report in

September. David Arnold: curious as to schedule for street repairs for watermain

breaks? Stan Rickard: repairs start this week. First one is on Westmore by 7-11. John

Kaforski: question about West Road. Seems to be a controversal issue. When is first

meeting scheduled? Stan Rickard: Public Meeting is scheduled for tomorrow night.

Resistance is coming from approximately 1 block of West Road. Joan DeStephano: 35

people signed petition, has to be more than 1 block. Stan Rickard: it is a very small

amount of total project. David Arnold: how many trees are being removed? David

Dratnol: we are taking about 150 total/West Road is from 2 inch size tree on up. We

are replacing almost as many trees as we are removing. Most of the trees being

removed are by the hill. People do not understand exactly what is being proposed.

Stephen Preins: trees that we are removing/are any of these for sidewalk installation?

David Dratnol: yes. We have some sidewalk that is winding to avoid tree removal, but

some of it is necessary. Stephen Preins: we could be bending the sidewalk more.

David Dratnol: will bring plans to next meeting. Will not compromise safety to save a

tree. John Kaforski: This is a residential street not an arterial street. David Dratnol:

when they redo North Ave. there will not be access to North Ave. from West Rd. Will

be less traffic when North Ave. is redesigned. Stephen Preins: I can see why some of

the residents are upset about removal of large, mature trees. This committee is

dedicated to preservation of large, mature trees in town. David Dratnol: I understand

this. Stephen Preins: Madison west of Main Street is really starting to deteriorate.

Especially in front of Madison School. Stan Rickard: scheduled for 2007. Stephen

Preins: will not last that long. Stan Rickard: if money situation improves we could move

it up. David Dratnol: we do reassess these every year, could be moved up. Stephen

Preins: What is wrong with this area, why is it deteriorating so quickly? Stan Rickard:

poor materials. Joan DeStephano: just defective materials that year? David Dratnol:

we try new things, recycled materials, etc. John Kaforski: that laid open for a long time

also. Stan Rickard: Grinding and overlay may be a fix for this.
