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 three-year capital improvement plan we are continuing replacing the fire suppression system throughout the stadium. Because of the age of the system many leaks have formed that have resulted in emergency repairs, rendering parts of the system inadequate. This round of replacement will occur at the concourse level.
CONCLUSION:
The City of Joliet is seeking approval of purchase and installation for the Joliet Slammers Stadium Fire Suppression Pipe Replacement. Staff contacted three contractors to obtain quotes for the scope of work, three returned proposals. Staff is recommending the purchase be approved and awarded to AMS Industries, Inc in the amount of $186,770.00.?Original projected estimates were $250,000.00. 2026 Capital Improvement Funds provide funding for this fire suppression pipe replacement project (Org 30020010, Obj 557300, $186,770.00).
