THE CITY IN THE SUBURBS-
AGENDA ITEM: E
MEETING DATE: August 8, 2012
ITEM:
Agreement with SmithGroup JJR for Consulting Services for Improvements at Jack E. Cook Park
($60,000)
OBJECTIVE:
Complete phase 1 improvements to Jack E. Cook Regional Park.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the agreement for consulting services with SmithGroup JJR in the amount of$60,000.
BACKGROUND
The city owns 224 acres of unimproved park land located north of Plank Road and west of
Switzer Road in Elgin. The property was annexed and purchased at a cost of$4,389,735 in April
2006. The city received a $750,000 grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to
help with the purchase of the park land and because of this grant, the city is now required to
begin the development of the park site.
To assist with the expense of the development of the park site, the city applied for an Open
Space Lands Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) grant and was awarded it in 2011. This
$400,000 OSLAD grant will be used to help offset the estimated $942,643 Phase 1 development
costs. A copy of the Phase I concept plan is attached. The Phase 1 improvements will cover
approximately ten acres of the total parcel. Future phases are not yet identified or programmed
in the city's park construction budget.
Through the issuance of a request for proposal (RFP), the city sought a consultant to lead the
design, bid development and bidding of the Phase I project. A request for proposals was posted
on the city's website, published in the Courier News on April 24, 2012 and sent directly to
several consultants for their consideration. The city received nine proposals for the project
which the staff evaluation team reviewed. Based on the quality of their proposal and
understanding of the project, staff is recommending that the city retain SmithGroup JJR as the
consultants to assist with this project. SmithGroup JJR has extensive local expertise acquired
through their prior work on the recently adopted Parks and Recreation Master Plan. This
experience will allow SmithGroup JJR to start the project with an unmatched depth of
knowledge and understanding of the city's requirements and permitting process.
1
OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS
The attached plan was submitted as part of the OSLAD grant. It is conceptual in nature and does
not have the level of detail that is needed to construct the project. If approved, SmithGroup 11R
will perform the following tasks as outlined in their attached contract: (1) discovery and
program verification, (2) master plan verification, (3) preliminary engineering, (4) final
engineering documents and permits.
It is anticipated that most of SmithGroup JJR's tasks will be completed by the end of 2012.
Bidding of the project will take place during early 2013 and the project will be completed by fall
of 2013. The OSLAD grant requires that the project be completed by the end of 2013. Future
phases of the Jack E. Cook Regional Park have not yet been identified due to the slowdown in
development which has negatively impacted park impact fee collections.
INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
None.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
A total of nine proposals were received and considered, with SmithGroup JJR chosen as the best
proposal and most qualified firm to assist with the project. The total cost to prepare the
necessary drawings, documents and permit application is $60,000. The projected cost of the
entire Phase I development is estimated to be $942,643.
