Resolution approving Amendment No. 1 to the contract with Burns & McDonnell in the |
amount of $35,651.04 for resident engineering services related to Special Assessment |
213B (West Road - St. Charles Road to Woodland Avenue). (DISTRICT #1) |
Mike Folta and Colin Campbell from Burns & McDonnell were introduced. They were in |
attendance to discuss Burns & McDonnell's resident engineering amendment for Special |
Assessment 213B. Initially, Wes Anderson outlined how Burns & McDonnell will cover |
the remaining work to be done by R.W. Dunteman. Mike Folta then reviewed the |
business history of Burns & McDonnell and the Village of Lombard along with the scope |
and structure of the contract. Mike Folta explained that with the time extension of the |
contract, along with the "hand-holding" of the residents of West Rd. concerning issues |
related to right-of-way improvements and on properties acquired by the Village, Burns |
and McDonnell exceeded the original contract hours. Trustee Soderstrom explained |
that BOLI is evaluating all contracts, both construction and professional services. |
Trustee Soderstrom continued to say that the 39.3 % cost overrun is difficult to |
understand especially after the fact. This should have been identified in a more timely |
manner. Trustee Tross expressed that there was a communication failure of staff to |
inform BOLI of the issue. There also was a communication failure between staff and |
Burns and McDonnell. He also reiterated that he had concerns of how this issue was |
addressed and handled and that professional service contract issues like this not |
happen again. |
It was moved by President Tross, seconded by Vice President Soderstrom, that |
this matter be approved. The motion carried by the following vote: |
It was moved by President Tross, seconded by Vice President Soderstrom, |
