ROADS & BRIDGES – Julie McKevitt

Trustee McKevitt reviewed the roadwork scheduled for 2005, specifically for sections of 
the following roads:  Cuba, Meadow Hill, Healy, Chapel Hill, and Honeycutt.  This 
year’s work will also include the refurbishing of the island at Spring Creek and Haeger’s 
Bend Road.

Trustee McKevitt motioned to award the 2005 road contract, in the amount of 
$720,669.25, to Chicagoland Paving, Lake Zurich, Illinois.  Trustee Smithe seconded. 
Two amendments were proposed to the motion: 

(1) President Abboud requested the addition of $4,000 to the bid as a maximum limit to 
be used for structural engineering inspections, to assure any potential damage that could 
have occurred during construction.  Trustee McKevitt motioned to approve this 
amendment; Trustee Gohl seconded.  Roll Call.  

Ayes:	5  (Schueppert, McKevitt, Smithe, Gohl, Abboud)
Nays:	0
Absent: 	2  (Horne, Knoop)
								
      Amendment Approved
      
(2) Trustee Schueppert proposed that the engineers revisit Honeycutt Lane to take into 
consideration potential drainage issues, that Chicagoland Paving be asked to reconsider 
their bid price on that project given the potential work scope, and if it exceeds the bid, 
that the matter come back before the Board for reconsideration. Trustee Schueppert 
motioned to approve this amendment; Trustee Gohl seconded.  Roll Call.
