BACKGROUND:
Joliet Slammers Stadium was built in 2002 and hosts baseball games for the Slammers, University of St. Francis, IHSA State Finals, and local youth tournaments. As part of a four-year improvement plan we are continuing painting structural steel throughout the stadium. Because of the age of the stadium the structural steel needs painting to protect its durability and longevity. This is year three of four in the painting project. This round of painting would cover all the main concourse and steel on the face of the suites.
The Public Assets Committee recommended this item for Council approval at their February 18, 2026 meeting.
CONCLUSION:
The City of Joliet is seeking approval to award payment for the Joliet Slammers Structural Steel Painting. Staff contacted three vendors to obtain proposals for the scope of work, three returned proposals. Staff are recommending the payment be approved and awarded to Cosgrove Construction Inc. in the amount of $409,660.00.?Original projected estimates were $400,000.00.?The 2026 Capital Improvements Building & Grounds and Community Development Ballpark funds provide funding for this repair project (Org 30020010, Obj 557300, $400,000.00 and Org 02015130, Obj 524300, $9,660.00).
