On October 19, 2021 the Mayor and City Council approved a Professional Engineering Services agreement for the Houbolt Road (US Route 6 - I-80) Roadway Reconstruction Project to Civiltech Engineering Inc. in an amount not to exceed $3,174,684.00.

 

The Public Service Committee will review this matter.

 

CONCLUSION:

The construction of the Houbolt Road reconstruction project was originally expected to be completed in June 2023.  The actual construction was completed in June 2024.  Due to the extension of the construction, the Phase III Engineering services were also extended approximately one year.  Civiltech Engineering Inc. has submitted a supplement to their agreement for the additional services in the amount of $296,695.86.  The Illinois Department of Transportation is responsible for 100% of these costs and has previously agreed to fund the additional $296,695.86.

 

Funding for Amendment No. 1 exists utilizing the Grant & Special Revenue Funds / Engineering and Construction (Org 20090270, Object 557200, $296,695.86).
