The original service for the park lighting was by a meter and timer mounted on a utility pole. To provide a constant service between dusk and dawn, the addition of the photo electric cell will be added to the contract. The lighting will then be paid for under a Rate 25 Contract with Commonwealth Edison. Public Property and Recreation has requested that an additional row of hedges be added to the contract. This hedge will act as a screen and help to improve a major approach to the City (Route 31 from the south) . The original engineer's estimate to construct this project was $44,985.00. The contract cost is $35,782.00 which was awarded to Illinois Hydraulic Construction on July 11, 1983. The two items above will add $3,020.35 (Photo Electric Cell $64.35, and 56 Evonymous Alata Compactor $2,956.00) . We would therefore request that the City Council approve Change Order No. 1 to the Tyerson Park Improvements (copy attached) .
