ITEM SUMMARY:
There are three natural area basins located on and around the Water Treatment Plant building at 1400 West
Hawthorne Lane. These basins were created as part of the stormwater management permit requirement at the time
of various building construction onsite. The three basins include:
e the northwest compensatory storage basin (NW comp basin),
e the southeast wetland buffer enhancement area (SE buffer), and
the north-central basin (NC basin) located north of the salt storage building.
Per the DuPage County Stormwater and Floodplain Ordinance, a three-year maintenance and monitoring of
the natural basin area is required post construction. This requirement was met when the sign off was received
in February 2023. Christopher B. Burke Engineering LTD (CBBEL) performed the required three years of
maintenance and monitoring for the City.
Due to the location and to prevent overgrowth of these natural area basins, staff recommends continuing with
post permit maintenance and monitoring. Staff solicitated a proposal from CBBEL due to its history of
previously providing these services to the City. Three years of maintenance and monitoring services are
proposed with the goal of preventing weed infestations, preserving the ecological functions, and improving site
aesthetics. Services include annual weed control, supplemental seeding, and preparation of annual summary
reports, and a prescribed burning in 2025. The total cost for the three years will be $25,970.00 with an annual
cost as follows:
FY 2024 - $6,470.00
FY 2025 - $12,500.00
FY 2026 - $7,000.00
Staff recommends approval of the item. In FY 2024, fund account 06-34-48-4216 has $7,000.00 budgeted for this
item. Appropriate funds will be budgeted in FY2025 and FY2026 to cover the costs in future years.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Approve Resolution No. 24-R-0019 authorizing the Mayor to execute a professional services contract with
Christopher B. Burke Engineering LTD. for the Water Treatment Plant Natural Area Basins Maintenance and
Monitoring for an amount not to exceed $25,970.00 for FY 2024-2026.
