SUBJECT: Commonwealth Edison "Customer Works Agreement"
Additional Compensation for Relocation of Utilities
on Kimball Street
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information to consider
compensating Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) for additional work
associated with relocating their utility lines on Kimball
Street .
BACKGROUND
rk As part of the Kimball Street Reconstruction Project, the City
Council authorized an agreement with ComEd to relocate their
existing overhead utilities underground. With the completion
of this work, ComEd is requesting $58, 708 . 25 in additional
compensation for items not included in the original agreement .
Of this amount, $28, 000 is for the installation of underground
conduit at the intersections of Brook Street, Douglas Avenue
and Spring Street with Kimball Street . It was originally
anticipated that the contractor working for the City would
install the conduit for these crossings . However, the cost for
ComEd to install this conduit was less than the amount the
City contractor would have charged (approximately $35, 000)
to do the work and, therefore, ComEd did the installation. The
balance of the compensation, $30, 708 . 25, is for additional
underground conduit extending further north on Grove Avenue
and south on Brook Street . The extension of conduit resulted
in the more immediate removal of overhead lines and provides
for additional, overhead removal upon completion of demolition
of the Borden Building and 55 Water Street .
A copy of the "Customer Work Agreement" is attached as Exhibit
A.
