SUBJECT: Roof Consulting Service Contract
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information to award a contract
for Roof Consulting services .
BACKGROUND
During the 2003 budget process, two roofs, Fire Station #2 and
the Fire Museum, were identified for replacement . Funding was
also budgeted to provide for roof condition evaluations for 71
other city owned structures . The evaluations are intended to
help prioritize future roof repair, maintenance, and
replacement, to prevent roof failures, and provide short and
long term budget information.
Requests for proposals were sent out to several firms
specializing in roof consulting. The consulting firm will
provide specifications, bid documents, bid review, construction
monitoring, and final inspections for the two roof replacement
projects . The consultant will also provide roof condition
evaluations for 70 additional City owned structures . Two
proposals were received from Raths, Raths, and Johnson, Inc . and
Illinois Roof Consulting Assoc . Inc . The committee reviewed the
two proposals and determined that Raths, Raths, and Johnson,
Inc. was the most qualified firm to perform these services .
Raths, Raths, and Johnson, Inc . has successfully completed work
for the City of Elgin in the past .
