Sincerely, Ja d.s ah -CJ �� g h � \ JAN 0 9 1995 CITY OF ELGIN ENGINEERING DEPT. • n CS Agenda Item No. A-412-) January 18, 1996 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Richard B. Helwig, City Manager SUBJECT: Historic District Ornamental Lighting PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to rescind an Agreement with Neil W. Eash and Associates, and to enter into an Agreement with Sunjoy Area Lighting, Inc. , for the preparation of plans, specifications, estimates and construction assistance for the Historic District Ornamental f"k Lighting project. BACKGROUND In May, 1993, the City of Elgin was awarded a grant from the State of Illinois for the installation of about 275 historic street lights in the Elgin Historic District. The grant was in the amount of $800,000 with $200,000 to be funded by the City. (In July, 1995 the grant amount was increased by the State to an amount of $1, 176,000 with $294,000 to be funded by the City. ) On September 23, 1993, an Agreement was entered into with Neil W. Eash and Associates for the Phase I : Project Analysis and Design Development and Phase II : Pre-Final and Final Engineering for the Historic District Ornamental Lighting project. Phase I work was completed satisfactorily and accepted by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) . However, Phase II work was consistently rejected by IDOT as incomplete and unsuitable for bidding. In July, 1995, Neil W. Eash and Associates went out of business. In order to salvage the project, we turned to Sunjoy Area Lighting, Inc. to redesign the project to the satisfaction and fek approval of IDOT. Sunjoy Area Lighting, Inc. , was the electrical sub-consultant on the Grove Avenue Mall Reopening project as well as the electrical sub-consultant on the Slade Avenue Streetscape project. Both of these projects utilized Historic District Ornamental Lighting January 18, 1996 Page 2 the acorn style lighting fixtures which were approved for the Elgin Historic District. Sunjoy Area Lighting, Inc. has completed the preparation of plans, specifications and estimates to the satisfaction of IDOT with the project issued to bid by IDOT in December 1995 . The bid opening occurred on January 11, 1996 . COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None. FINANCIAL IMPACT An encumbrance was made under the original contract with Neil W. Eash and Associates in Account 392-0000-795 .92-32, Project 339536 in the amount of $45,456 .00. A payment in the amount of $5,062 .05 was made to Neil W. Eash, on February 11, 1994, for the completion of Phase I services . As Phase II services were not successfully completed, no subsequent payments were made to Neil W. Eash and Associates . Additional expenditures of $2, 10S . 30 were made against the project in 1994, for a f'` total ex?enditure in 1994 of $7, 171 . 35. The project was originally funded under Account 392-0000-795 .92-32, Project 339536 in the amount of $200,000. Because of the increased grant amount, the City's share of the project also increased. Consequently, an additional $95,000 was included in the 1996 budget under River Boat Revenues . Total City funding for the project is in the amount of $295,000 less $7, 171. 35 paid out in 1994, or $287,828.65. The Agreement with Sunjoy Area Lighting, Inc. is in the not- to-exceed amount of $66,897 .62 inclusive of final engineering, bidding, and construction related services . As $287,828. 65 is available under Account 392-0000-795. 92-32, Project 339536, adequate moneys are available to fund this Agreement. LEGAL IMPACT None.
