AGENDA ITEM: MEETING DATE: February 11, 2015 ITEM: Parkway Tree Trimming – Bid 14‐054 ($135,000) OBJECTIVE: Provide comprehensive and cyclical maintenance of Elgin’s urban forest. RECOMMENDATION: Award contract to The Davey Tree Expert Company for parkway tree trimming in the amount of $135,000. BACKGROUND Cycle pruning is one of several operations coordinated through the forestry department for the care of Elgin’s urban forest. During cycle pruning and the associated crown cleaning, certified arborists remove dead, damaged or compromising limbs thereby preventing additional damage or disease. The process also improves the effect of street lighting while lessening tree and property damage that may occur during a storm. To maintain its tree stock effectively, Elgin strives to maintain a seven year trimming cycle.
The city has utilized a contractor to perform a majority of its cycle pruning for the last nine years. The contractor provides notice to affected residents prior to trimming a predetermined neighborhood and implements traffic control as necessary. Each tree also receives an aerial evaluation that is forwarded to staff for appropriate action outside of the pruning process. Staff evaluates the work performed and confirms contractor activities prior to authorizing payment. OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS Use of a contractor for cycle pruning allows staff to focus on additional forest management tasks consisting of: 1. Addressing constituent concerns as provided through 311 2. Coordination of spring and fall tree planting (approximately 450 trees annually) 3. Evaluation of tree health on public property 4. Specific pruning, removal and stump grinding 5. Storm response and cleanup 6. Pesticide applications for the Emerald Ash Borer 7. Assisting code with evaluation of hazardous trees Elimination of contract pruning would require additional staff and equipment as outlined in At‐ tachment C, or refocusing staff attention from activities listed above. Curtailing the cycle prun‐ ing program would lengthen the preventative maintenance cycle resulting in increased damage or disease to Elgin’s tree stock. INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The bid solicited proposals on pruning cost per tree category based on diameter in six‐inch in‐ crements. Quantities provided in the bid documents are a representative sampling of the entire urban forest, and are intended for bid comparison purposes. The proposed three year agree‐ ment contains an option for two annual renewals extending the contract through 2019. The Davey Tree Expert Company (Davey Tree) is willing to carry pricing through the extension years pending evaluation of the Consumer Price Index for the Elgin area. The approved 2015 forestry budget contained funding consistent with a seven year pruning cy‐ cle. Staff requests approval to authorize Davey Tree to perform cycle pruning up to the budget‐ ed amount of $135, 000. Remaining funds are intended for contract tree removal.

AGENDA ITEM: MEETING DATE: February 11, 2015 ITEM: Parks and Recreation Department Athletic Program Officials ‐ Bid 14‐063 ($66,506 ‐ Offset by Program Revenues) OBJECTIVE: Provide athletic program officials for softball and basketball games. RECOMMENDATION: Award the bid to RACK Officials for Parks and Recreation Department Athletic Program Officials in the amount of $66,506. BACKGROUND The parks and recreation department began using a referee assignor in 2003 for the city’s adult softball and basketball leagues and youth basketball leagues. Before then, the city staff was re‐ sponsible for contracting each referee individually. This process was time‐consuming as staff was responsible for finding quality referees, scheduling and training them, managing referee‐ related disputes and then paying the individual referees for their services. The city has realized greater efficiencies by contracting with a single referee assignor to staff all of the city’s softball and basketball leagues. One fee is paid to the contractual assignor who, in turn, assumes re‐ sponsibility for all referee‐related operations. This operational change has become a necessity following the city’s reduction in parks and recreation department full‐time staff during the past several years. OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS Approximately 400 youth basketball games, 70 adult basketball games and 1,350 softball games are annually conducted in the city’s leagues. About 3,500 participants compete in these games during the year. Vendors were asked to provide fees per referee for the various leagues that are offered in addition to the assignor fee. Because the number of games bid has been estimat‐ ed on the 2014 actual athletic schedule, the proposed contract amount is an estimate and will be modified based on actual games played in 2015. RACK Officials, the current assignor, was the only responsive bidder in the amount of $66,506. The city has used RACK Officials as its assignor since 2003 and staff has been impressed with
their quality of work and professionalism. RACK Officials is a local company that primarily em‐ ploys local residents who have come to know the program’s facilities and participants. Their familiarity of the Elgin league rules and operations is critical to the success of the programs. Youth soccer is the only city athletic league that does not utilize an assignor. This is because no assignor has a large enough pool of soccer officials to handle the leagues. Soccer officials are hired as employees, scheduled by city staff and paid hourly. INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The proposed agreement consists of an initial three‐year term with optional annual extensions through 2019. RACK Officials, the only responsive bidder, has agreed to hold contract prices for the first three years of the agreement. In year four, the price would increase by less than 1 per‐ cent and 1.1 percent in year five. The basketball and softball leagues generated combined rev‐ enues of $204,000 in 2014. To make sure that RACK’s charges are competitive, staff contacted other local communities to see what they are being charged for similar services. The table be‐ low outlines what other communities are currently paying, as well as RACK’s proposed fees for 2015. The fees include all assigning fees combined with the payment for the officials.

AGENDA ITEM: MEETING DATE: February 11, 2015 ITEM: 2015 Neighborhood Street Resurfacing Program ‐ Bid 15‐001 ($2,237,240) OBJECTIVE: Improve pavement infrastructure on several adjacent streets within the Heartland Meadows, Woodbridge South and Mulberry Grove subdivisions. RECOMMENDATION: Award the 2015 Neighborhood Street Resurfacing Program bid to Plote Construction, Inc. of Hoffman Estates, Illinois in the amount of $2,237,240. BACKGROUND The city hired Will Burke Kelsey and Associates (WBK) in 2014 to develop a project for resurfac‐ ing neighborhood streets. Staff requested that WBK prepare a project large enough to exceed available funding in the event additional funding became available and to have a second project ready early the following year. The project being awarded to Plote falls within this second cate‐ gory. Plote completed the 2014 street resurfacing work as designed by WBK, so awarding to Plote in early 2015 the remainder of the contemplated 2014 work will provide a smooth transi‐ tion for the city, the contractor and the consultant. When the city increased its home rule sales tax by 0.05 cent to 1.25 percent in 2012, it decided not to deposit the incremental revenue generated from this sales tax in the General Fund but rather to fund infrastructure and other capital improvement projects throughout the city. These funds are designated by ordinance to the city’s “Capital Improvements Fund” (CIP). The resur‐ facing programs have also historically utilized Riverboat Funds and this project will be no excep‐ tion. The amount of Riverboat Funding, however, will be lower. The city also previously used Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) funds to provide intermittent resurfacing, but to avoid delays caused by submitting local programs to the State, the MFT funds are now used to pay operational expens‐ es and the offsetting amount in the General Fund is used on resurfacing projects. In summary, the Neighborhood Resurfacing Program will be funded by CIP, Riverboat and General Funds. The city’s Neighborhood Street Resurfacing Program extends the life of the existing pavement (i.e., the portion of the pavement below the surface course) by resurfacing and sealing the sur‐
1
face to prevent rain water from reaching the base course. The primary purpose of the Neigh‐ borhood Street Resurfacing Program is to provide pavement maintenance rather than pave‐ ment improvement. This maintenance is performed to extend the life of the pavement as far into the future as possible before rehabilitation and replacement is needed. The streets in this area were originally constructed between 1990 and 2000 as part of the Heartland Meadows, Woodbridge South and Mulberry Grove Subdivisions. At the present time, most of the infrastructure, with the exception of the surface, is in fair to good condition. This project will, in Woodbridge South, thicken the asphalt surface and replace small sections of the gravel base that has failed. In the other two subdivisions, the city has an asphalt base instead of the gravel base found in Woodbridge South that manages the loads, water conditions and freeze/thaw issues much better. Although there is some curb and gutter and sidewalk work contemplated in this project, the primary focus of this program is paving only. The concrete work will generally be utilized for improving the accessibility ramps at the intersections. OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS The project primarily involves pavement grinding and new riding surface of either three or five inches of new bituminous concrete over existing base (three on asphalt base and five on gravel base) on city jurisdictional streets. The incidental removal and replacement of minor amounts of curb and gutter and sidewalks will also be performed when required. Attachment A includes maps of the streets to be resurfaced. The bid award also includes one alternate to allow the streets within the Tollgate industrial park to be resurfaced. Current funding levels dictate that the alternate for resurfacing the industrial park’ streets may not be awarded. The Tollgate industrial park resurfacing project will ready to proceed in the event the city issues bonds to fund additional street resurfacing. Seven bid packages were issued with the city receiving five bidders for the project. For the base bid only, the bids ranged from a low of $2,237,236 to a high of $2,652,177. The alternate bid, for the Tollgate industrial park, ranged from a low of $697,487 to a high of $914,849. Plote Con‐ struction was the lowest responsive bidder for the base bid as well as the alternate bid. The bids are shown in Attachment B. Funds in the budget are available to award the base bid only at this time. If additional funding becomes available the alternate could be added via a change or‐ der. The engineers estimate for the base bid was $2,479,864 and for the alternate was $832,697. Plote Construction has just finished up the 2014 Neighborhood Street Resurfacing‐North and South projects, has previously worked for the city and has, in each case, provided a satisfactory product that the city ultimately accepted.
2
INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS Staff is recommending awarding the 2015 Neighborhood Street Resurfacing Program to Plote in the amount of $2,237,236.08. The city council approved a 2015 budget that appropriated Capi‐ tal Improvement ($1,153,460), General ($975,000) and Riverboat Funds ($500,000) for the 2015 resurfacing programs. The 2014 design and construction administration contract with the amendment number one to add McLean Resurfacing ($230,350 charge to the CIP) with WBK included sufficient funds for the construction administration of this project. The WBK contract is expected to be fully completed in 2015. In addition to this project, the staff is hoping to utilize any remaining 2014 resurfacing money (anticipated to be $310,000) and the remainder of the aforementioned 2015 funds (anticipated to be $160,800) to employ a consultant to design/engineer a 2016 resurfacing program in the first half of 2015. There may be an opportunity to use this other project in 2015 should the city move forward with issuing bonds. Staff will be bringing a separate memorandum to bring this other project forward.

AGENDA ITEM: MEETING DATE: February 11, 2015 ITEM: Purchase of Vactor ‐ Northwest Municipal Conference/Suburban Purchasing Cooperative Joint Purchasing Program ($371,369) OBJECTIVE: Replace equipment to meet the maintenance needs of storm and wastewater infrastructure. RECOMMENDATION: Award a contract to Standard Equipment Company for the purchase of a Stock 2015 Vactor Model 2112 Plus for the sewer division in the amount of $371,369. BACKGROUND The city has been using two Vactor sewer cleaning trucks to meet the maintenance needs of the storm and wastewater infrastructure. A Vactor is a sewer cleaning vehicle with equipment capable of sewer jetting and hydro‐excavating. As the city’s infrastructure has continued to grow, the city’s maintenance needs have been commensurately increasing. Staff uses Vactors to properly maintain and clean the infrastruc‐ ture in accordance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. In accordance with this program, staff annually cleans 309,000 linear feet of sanitary lines, 109,000 linear feet of storm lines, 100,000 linear feet of combined sewer lines and 1,955 catch basins. Staff uses these vehicles to maintain fourteen combined sewer overflows that are annu‐ ally inspected by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA). Crews clean and maintain nine sanitary lift stations as well as 22 storm water detention basins with this equipment. OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS The average life span of a Vactor, when used in an operation comparable to the city, is ten years. The city replaced a seventeen‐year‐old Vactor in 2013. While this new Vactor is techni‐ cally a replacement of the existing fifteen‐year‐old Vactor, the old Vactor will be kept as a city‐ wide unit and backup as there is no cost effective trade‐in value according the vendor. The city requires that at least two Vactors be operable and functioning to properly clean storm sewer lines and catch basins.

Bicycle Route 1 & 4: Construction has been completed on Route 1. Rudd reported on some issues
concerning duplication of signage. Issues getting under US Route 20 and past the railroads remain a significant hurdle for the project. The inability, to date, to connect the bikeway to the National Street METRA Station may make the project ineligible for continued CMAQ funding.
Bicycle Friendly Community Application: Elgin has been placed on the honorable mention list of communities. One criticism was the lack of bicycle accommodations along arterial streets, many of
which are county and state controlled. Adopting a Complete Streets policy and guidelines will be an important step to take prior to the next application.

concerns regarding the Fox River Trail. Waden will forward the letters to City staff for review and further action.
Walnut /South / Lillian Corridor Pedestrian Accommodations: The committee continued discussions
regarding the lack of traffic control for vehicles travelling the Walnut /South /Lillian corridor and the impact of that traffic on the quality of life for area residents and businesses. It is difficult for adjoining residents to exit their driveways and for traffic (motoring, bicycle and pedestrians) to cross the corridor with the unrestricted traffic flow. The committee discussed various steps to start a dialogue to address these issues.
Shady Oaks /Summit Intersection: Residents from Cobblers Crossing Subdivision approached the City Council with concerns regarding recent accidents at the intersection. There has been no update to follow -up action. New Business:

draw people to us. Member Cherry said we should emphasize Elgin as a destination
for the arts. Member Rehberg recommended using language already created by the Council as much as possible.
Jim asked about the Current functions section of the draft.
Member Rehberg
suggested adding some of the users to the text as well as attaching a list. It was suggested that City events such as the upcoming MLK event be highlighted. Chair and 011ayos suggest that different language be used rather than " Home of ..."
maybe a different way of listing users. Butch suggested local, regional and national.
Member Rehberg stated that " Home of ..." suggest longevity. Member Cherry stated the need to focus on education and kids. Chair 011ayos recommended
showing success stories from CTE and others. Member Cherry suggested equating to sports: they need fields and courts; the arts need performance spaces and galleries. Member Johnson recommended adding volunteers and participants to the by the numbers section.

community outreach and Member Rehberg pointed out that this was a Chair staffing011ayos issue.
Member Johnson recommended that staffing is " severely limited." questioned what the new Communications Director would be able to do for The Hemmens.

administrative staff was needed to which Butch responded both. Member McCoy stated that marketed needed to go both ways to get renters in and information out and that staff is imperative for this. Jim confirmed that the Challenges section would
