2016-0480 Renewal for the Code Red Emergency Notification

The Code Red Emergency Notification System annual service is due for renewal.

Staff is requesting approval in the amount of $20,967.75 for this service effective June 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017.

CodeRED is an ultra high-speed voice communication service for emergency notifications. The system allows us to call all or targeted areas of the village in case of an emergency or urgent situation that requires immediate attention. Our contract also allows us to use the system for general or non-emergency notifications. The Code Red system uses a phone number database to contact residents and businesses within the village with a voice message, and will also dispatch and email message and/or text message to residents and businesses that provide this additional information when they register.

The annual cost of the system is $0.75 per household or business and includes unlimited calls. The contact list feature is $150 annually and is used by the public works department to call out snow fighting teams and contractors.

I move approve the Code Red Emergency Notification System Service for a period of one year at a cost not to exceed $20,967.75. This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0482 Renewal for the PerfectForms System

PerfectForms is a cloud-based service used by the Village for the past four years to provide residents the ability to submit their tax rebate applications and supporting documentation over the Internet. The system’s core functionality includes the capability to build custom web forms with intelligent behaviors and workflow applications. Examples of the behaviors that were built into the tax rebate application include lookup and validation of property index and utility account numbers, dispatching of email to both the applicant and internal staff, and internal routing of applications for verification and approval.

The cost of the annual license is $4,500. There are additional charges for the following items; hosting the data files from which the lookups are performed, one additional user license, and increased storage space for residents to attach their supporting documentation. The total cost for the renewal of the system is $8,370 for a one year period.

I move to approve the PerfectForms System annual renewal at a cost not to exceed $8,370.00.

This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0492 Cisco Network Device - Annual Maintenance

Funds are included in the FY 2016 Budget for Cisco network switch, firewall, e-mail threat and anti-spam maintenance, which affords the Village support, software upgrades and hardware replacements for critical network switching equipment.

This year, several critical network switches in the Police Department are being added to maintenance due to limited availability of replacement equipment. We are also co-terming maintenance and support of our Cisco IronPort E-Mail AntiVirus and Spam appliance in order to simplify the renewal process. Sentinel Technologies provided Cisco government pricing along with their High Availability Network Support (HANS) pricing. HANS offers better support and a faster esponse time than standard Cisco support and at a lower cost.

Staff is recommending the purchase of Sentinel Technologies HANS maintenance and support for key Village computer network devices.

I move to approve the purchase of High Availability Network Support from Sentinel Technologies of Downers Grove, Illinois in an amount not to exceed $17,349.

This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0493 Fernway Subdivision Roadway and Ditch Grading Improvements 2016 - Bid and Construction Engineering Services

The pavement in Fernway Subdivision was originally constructed in the early 1960’s. At that time, the unincorporated roadways were constructed to a rural cross section, below Village standards. The Village has spent considerable resources maintaining these roadways since annexing the area over 40 years ago. Our Pavement Management Consultant, Applied Research Associates, has recommended full pavement reconstruction in conjunction with ribbon curbs to support the pavement edge. Due to the scale of work and expected construction cost, the overall project for the entire subdivision is planned to be completed over nine years, depending on funding.

On November 16, 2015 the Village Board approved a contract with Baxter & Woodman to provide required Phase II Engineering services for the first segment of this multi-year road improvement project.

The following roads are planned to be completed in 2016 (year 1), 167th Place (88th Avenue east to Village limit) and a section of Robinhood Drive (167th Street to 171st Street).

In addition, the Village previously engaged Christopher B. Burke Engineering (CBBEL) to design and engineer roadside drainage ditch grading improvements. Both plan sets were incorporated into the Fernway Subdivision Roadway and Ditch Grading Improvements 2016 bid package.

An Invitation to Bid was advertised in the Southtown Newspaper on June 9, 2016. Seven (7) sealed bids were submitted for the Fernway Subdivision Roadway and Ditch Grading Improvements 2016.

Ferro Construction Company of Joliet, Illinois.

The sealed bids were opened publicly by the Clerk’s Office at 11:00 a.m. on Friday,June 23, 2016.

P.T. Ferro Construction Company of Joliet, Illinois, was identified as the lowest responsible bidder for the Fernway Subdivision Roadway and Ditch Grading Improvements 2016 bid package, with a submitted project cost of $642,855.10 for roadway reconstruction, and $235,104.00 for ditch grading for a grand total of $877,959.10.

Therefore, it is staff's recommendation that P.T. Ferro Construction Company of Joliet, Illinois be awarded the project for the Fernway Subdivision Roadway and Ditch Grading Improvements 2016 in the amount of $877,959.10 plus $40,000 contingency for the road improvement work and $20,000 contingency for the ditch grading work for a total cost of $937,959.10.

To facilitate the construction, staff requested and received a proposal for Phase lll Construction Services from Baxter & Woodman. Baxter & Woodman is overseeing the 2016 Road Improvement Program and has worked with the Village on other projects. Staff recommends approving the proposal from Baxter & Woodman in an amount not to exceed $161,323.00 (proposal attached) plus $5,000.00 contingency for the road improvement work and $5,000.00 contingency for the ditch grading work for a total cost of $171,323.00.

Based on the type of construction, $101,793.80 (60%) of the cost will be funded by the Road Program; $69,529.20 (40%) will be funded by the Storm Water Fund in Water and Sewer.

This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0497 Elevator Pit Ladder Replacement at Village Buildings - Proposal

The Village uses Elevator Inspection Service (EIS) of Burr Ridge, Illinois to perform elevator inspection services. The most recent inspection revealed that pit ladders in two elevators (Village Hall and Loebe Recreation Center) do not conform to code as mandated by a recent change in the State fire code. In order for the elevators to pass inspection, the pit area infractions must be corrected and verified prior to the next inspection scheduled for September 2016. Both pit ladders will need to be removed and replaced with noncombustible retractable pit ladders in locations that will not interfere with operating equipment. Both of the elevator’s pit stop switches

will require relocation to ensure code compliance. The U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance (USCGPA) offers participating public agencies the ability to make purchases through existing, competitively solicited contracts between suppliers and public agencies. On December 1, 2014, the Village Board approved the Village’s participation in a US communities contract with Kone Inc. of Lisle, IL. for elevator maintenance services. Kone Inc. services elevators located in the following facilities: the Franklin Loebe Center, Village Hall, Cultural Arts Center, and Sportsplex.

To meet the new requirements, a proposal was requested and received from Kone Inc. for the required ladder installation and associated work in the amount of $9,950.00.

I move to approve the transfer of contingency funds in the amount of $9,950.00; And Accept the proposal from Kone Inc. of Lisle, IL. to perform pit ladder relocation and associated necessary code improvements to elevators at the Village Hall and Frank Loebe Center for a not to exceed cost of $9,950.00.

This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0500 Purchase of two (2) 5-Ton Combination Roof-Top HVAC units for Robert Davidson Center - Emergency Purchase

There are five (5) 5-Ton combination HVAC units on the roof of the Robert Davidson Center (RDC). Two similar units were replaced on an emergency basis earlier this year. As a combination HVAC, each unit provides both heating and air conditioning needs for specific zones in the facility. HVAC units can generally be repaired, except in the case when the heat exchanger becomes corroded and fails.

A failure of the heat exchanger and other critical components can lead to carbon monoxide being introduced into the building. Replacing the entire unit becomes more cost effective and prudent when these components fail. Substantial repair work has been performed on the units and both units require replacement. These critical component failures coupled with the need to cool and heat the facility, necessitates the need for immediate replacement.

Trane® HVAC units are being installed as the replacement brand for the failed Village HVAC units in an effort to standardize the Village’s HVAC inventory. Standardization ensures that quality parts and repair supplies are readily available when repairs are needed. To facilitate the replacement of the units, the Village requested and received a proposal from Trane Supply Co. of Tinley Park, IL, the authorized area dealer, for the purchase of two (2) 5-ton roof-top combination HVAC units for a total cost of $5,939.00. This is the same cost provided by Trane Supply earlier this year, and requires Village Board approval.

Building Maintenance staff will perform the labor to connect and install the units. As part of the HVAC installation, Building Maintenance will need to complete electric rewiring to install the HVAC units according to code requirements.

Materials will be purchased from Steiner Electric Company of Tinley Park, IL at an estimated cost of $1,132.32. Necessary sheet metal material for duct work will also be purchased and installed per the invoice for previous similar work from Dalhman Sheet Metal Co. of Frankfort, IL at an estimated cost of $2,382.00.

Additionally, a crane is needed to remove the old units from the roof of the Robert Davidson Center and replace with the new units. Stevenson Crane Services Inc. of South Holland, IL will provide a 35-ton truck crane to accomplish this work at an estimated cost of $1,250.00.

The total estimated cost to remove and replace the 2 (5-Ton) combination HVAC units on the roof of the Robert Davidson Center (RDC) is $10,703.32.

I move to approve the emergency purchase of two (2) 5-ton combination roof-top HVAC units from Trane Supply Co. of Tinley Park, IL at a cost not to exceed $5,939.00.

This matter was APPROVED on the Consent Agenda.

2016-0487 Chi-Cal Rivers Fund Grant Resolution Trustee Fenton stated that because this resolution did not go through the Development Services Committee and has been directly referred to the Board for consideration (so the Chi-Cal Grant’s annual July 27th application deadline can be met) this item should not have been on the consent.

Assistant Director of Development Services Mike Kowski reported that The Chi Cal Rivers Fund offers grants to local governments and non-profits in our region for the protection and restoration of area waterways. The Chi-Cal Rivers Fund, administered by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, is a public-private partnership of 11 local and national organizations working to restore the health, vitality and accessibility of the waterways in the Chicago and Calumet region. The three primary funding categories are green storm water infrastructure, habitat enhancement, and public-use improvements. The grant is limited to a $300,000 maximum, and requires an equal local match. Total funding for the program is 1.7 million, and the grants are highly competitive. However, staff believes the Village of Orland Park Nature Center is well positioned to apply for the grant.

In 2012, the Village purchased the 3.5 acre former Pebble Creek Nursery property on Lagrange Road with funds from the Village's Open Lands Program, and has made considerable progress cleaning up trash and debris from the site and readying it for development as the Village of Orland Park Nature Center. In 2013, the Village Board approved a conceptual master plan for the nature center site. On February 1, 2016, the Village Board approved the hiring of Upland Design Inc. to complete the final design and engineering of the project, which is currently underway. The final plans are based on the Village Board approved 2013 master plan, with building improvements, detailed exhibits, and signage to be addressed at a later time. Construction of the site plan improvements is anticipated in 2017.

On July 5, 2016, the Open Lands Commission voted 4-0 to support application to the Chi Cal Rivers Fund Green Region Program grant. The Chi Cal Rivers Fund grant application requires a document from the Village Board approving the submission and the utilization of Village Open Land funds for the local match, which in this case will be a maximum of $300,000.

The Open Lands Corporation will fund the 1:1 match, for potentially as much as $300,000, depending on the award amount. The Village’s 2016 annual budget for Open Lands’ capital improvements for the Nature Center is $434,083.

Upland's preliminary estimate for the cost of nature center site improvements is $1.7 million. Although there are adequate funds in the Open Lands budget to cover the match for the Chi-Cal grant, by accepting the grant the Village is committing to the construction of the entire $1.7 million project at the same time the grant money is expended, which has not yet been included in the budget. The Chi-Cal Rivers Fund grant anticipates the awarding of the grants in December 2016, with two years allowed for expenditure of the funds, or through the end of 2018.

I move to pass Resolution Number 1607, entitled: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SUBMISSION OF AN APPLICATION FOR A CHI CAL RIVERS FUND GRANT.

A motion was made by Trustee Fenton, seconded by Trustee Calandriello, that this matter be PASSED. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: Trustee Fenton, Trustee Dodge, Trustee Gira, Trustee Griffin Ruzich, Trustee Calandriello, Trustee Carroll, and President McLaughlin 7 - Nay: 0

EXECUTIVE SESSION

I move to recess to a Closed Executive Session for the purpose of discussion of a) the purchase or lease of real property for the use of the village; and b) setting a price for sale or lease of village property.

A motion was made by Trustee Fenton, seconded by Trustee Calandriello, that this matter be RECESS. The motion carried by the following vote:

Aye: Trustee Fenton, Trustee Dodge, Trustee Gira, Trustee Griffin Ruzich, Trustee Calandriello, Trustee Carroll, and President McLaughlin 7 - Nay: 0

RECONVENE BOARD MEETING

The roll was called to reconvene the Regular Meeting and Trustees Fenton, Dodge, Gira, Ruzich, Calandriello, Carroll and President McLaughlin were present.

Purpose of the Executive Session was for the discussion of a) the purchase or lease of real property for the use of the village; and g) setting a price for sale or lease of village property.

NON-SCHEDULED CITIZENS & VISITORS

Melanie Mobeck, 14069 Putney Place - along with other members from the Save Palos Health and Fitness Center group came before President McLaughlin and the Board thanking them for all their help in keeping this facility open. They also thanked Village Manager Grimes for his help on this project and wished him well in his new position as City Manager for the City of McKinney, Texas.

Chuck Krezwich, 15239 St. Andrews Drive - echoed his thanks that the Save Palos Health and Fitness Center group stated to the Board.

Ken Huemmer, 8640 144th Place - lives in the Maycliff subdivision and stated that when Airy’s installed the stormwater pipe on the side of his home, the house was shaking from the vibrations of placing that pipe in. Now there are cracks in the drywall inside his home from that pipe being installed which are worse than what they were before. He has meet with Airy’s and they stated only one crack will be fixed in his home.

Village Manager Grimes stated that the Village’s contractors have been directed to reach out to Mr. Huemmer and they reported back that they did not have much success getting a definitive response from Mr. Huemmer. An enormous amount of time has been spent with Mr. Huemmer addressing his concerns. A very good faith effort has been made by the Village along with Airy’s, but frankly no one can get a good response from Mr. Huemmer.

Mr. Huemmer stated he received a letter from Airy’s and his concern is once he agrees for Airy’s to fix his home, then the funds will be released to Airy’s and he won’t have any repercussions if he is not satisfied.

Village Attorney Friker stated that the funds that will be paid to the contractors has nothing to do with any claims that Mr. Huemmer may have. If he has a claim that he wishes to bring against the Village, he is free to do so.

President McLaughlin stated that it is important to schedule the restorations to begin, so this project can be completed. It is important that this neighborhood looks good and the neighbors are happy.

Mr. Huemmer questioned how he would go about submitting a claim.

Village Manager Grimes stated for him to contact Assistant Village Manager La Margo and he will walk him through the process.

BOARD COMMENTS

TRUSTEE GIRA – Stated that she had the privilege of meeting with Aquatic Center’s Lifeguards last week after they were recognized (in groups) for a volunteer competition that they participated in (on their own time) to increase their skills.

She congratulated all the Evan’s Scholars that were present tonight.

TRUSTEE CARROLL – He expressed his pride to live in a community where the residents love and respect the Village of Orland Park’s Police Department. He is very saddened on what is going on in the country and he is happy that this community has a fine and professional Police Department.

TRUSTEE DODGE – Is very happy on the positive outcome with the Palos Health and Fitness Center. President McLaughlin was involved with this from the very beginning (before the media reported it) and the Board was very supportive. Staff also worked very hard on this project.

TRUSTEE RUZICH – Congratulated staff and thanked President McLaughlin for his leadership on the Palos Health and Fitness Center. She is very happy that this has been completed in such a short amount of time and she realizes the amount of staff time that went into this.

TRUSTEE CALANDRIELLO – Stated that in the very beginning he stated that he had faith in the system and faith came out today with the approvals of the Palos Health and Fitness Center items.

He echoed what Trustee Carroll stated and agrees that the Orland Park Police are the best, trained the best, and lead by the best!

TRUSTEE FENTON – It takes a Village to accomplish thing and in this case it did for the Palos Fitness Center. She is looking forward in January to a ribbon cutting ceremony. This facility will be a great asset to the community, everyone will benefit from it. She stated that without the cooperation of Palos and Village Staff along with President McLaughlin and the Board this would have never moved forward.

PRESIDENT McLAUGHLIN – The items that were voted on tonight regarding the Palos Health and Fitness Center are huge. It was not just about the Fitness Center, there is also a $133 Million addition to the Palos Primary Care Center, which is wonderful for the community in terms of jobs and health care.

There is also a Phase II planned in the future, which has not been identified.

Between the Fitness Center, the $133 Million addition, and what Phase II will bring along with some other buildings on that property, this is a great project for the Village of Orland Park.

Regarding the Police Department – The Board along with the entire community has been honored to say that Orland Park is ranked the 13th safest community in the State of Illinois thanks to our Police Department and that Chief Tim McCarthy was named as Illinois Police Chief of the year. All great things!

The Police Officers have been hosting over the summer months the Police in the Park programs with great turnouts and a wonderful reception has been received towards the Police Officers. Our residents as well as staff and the Board are very proud of the Orland Park Police.

President McLaughlin stated that tonight seems like a very quick way to say goodbye to Paul. However, he explained that two weeks ago at the Civic Center a farewell luncheon took place for Paul with the employees as well as folks that do a lot of work with the Village. They all had the opportunity to say their goodbyes and

wish Paul along with his family the best. A lot of tears were shed at that event. President McLaughlin once again wished Paul all the best and sees this as an opportunity as a warm weather place to go visit. He stated the Village will miss him and wished him the best of luck!

Tonight was Village Manager Paul Grimes last Board Meeting and last day at the Village of Orland Park. He has accepted a new position as City Manager in McKinney, Texas where he will begin August 1st.

The entire Board wished him nothing but the very best on his new adventure and made the following comments: Village Manager Paul Grimes is a class act and will be missed very much; When Village Manager Grimes started here there were some really big and complexed projects in the making, without his leadership a lot of these would not have been completed - Orland Park is now a better place for having him here; Texas’s gain is the Village of Orland Park’s loss; Thanked him for all his help and patience in answering the same questions asked over and over; He will be truly missed!
