ITEM SUMMARY:
On December 25, 2020, a motorist drove his vehicle into the control building for Lift Station #1, located
adjacent to the Aspen Ridge Apartments parking lot (1450 South Neltnor Boulevard (IL Route 59)),
causing significant damage, including shifting the building from its foundation (see attached pictures). A
police report was filed and the responsible party is identified.
The City has completed the insurance claim process with the Intergovernmental Risk Management
Agency (IRMA) and funds for repairs have been authorized. The control building at Lift Station #1 was
originally constructed and installed by Starnet Technologies (Starnet) of Franksville, Wisconsin, and is
modular in its construction (i.e., building components can be removed and replaced). As Starnet is most
familiar with the building fabrication, City staff obtained a proposal from Starnet to complete repairs.
Starnet’s proposal, based on visible damages, is estimated at $25,472.40. However, additional costs are
anticipated once the exterior and interior panels are removed, the building is shifted back into place, and
a structural inspection is completed.
Therefore, City staff is seeking authorization to waive the competitive bidding process and award a
contract to Starnet Technologies for needed repairs to the control building for Lift Station #1 for an
amount not to exceed $30,000.00. IRMA will reimburse the City for all associated repair costs. City staff
anticipates that repairs will be completed by June 2021.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Waive the competitive bidding process and approve Resolution No. 21-R-0012 authorizing the Mayor to
execute a Contract with Starnet Technologies of Franksville, Wisconsin, for an amount not to exceed
$30,000.00, for services related to the Lift Station #1 Control Building Repair Project.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Infrastructure Committee voted 6-0 for approval.
