THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

During the Human Resource/Public Works report, Trustee Blackwell described active contracts with engineering firm Baxter & Woodman for development of ongoing Public Works projects, including a comprehensive repavement of many Village streets. Public Works has implemented a pavement management system map (created in 2019 and last updated in 2021) to prioritize worst-condition streets and sequence road and swale work across subdivisions such as Suburban Woods, Vienna Woods, Brookwood, and Hawthorne Woods.

What it means for vendors

The discussion highlighted that basic patching has been done and that full repaving phases and swale/culvert remediation are being executed systematically, with Vienna Woods next for gutter/curb/asphalt work and Hawthorne Woods as a subsequent swale/asphalt area. Although Baxter & Woodman is the current engineering incumbent, significant future construction packages for paving, drainage, sidewalk, and tree work will need to be bid out to contractors as each phase is funded and scheduled, and citizen complaints about sidewalks, ponding, and tree maintenance suggest pressure to expand the program scope.

Background

Citizen comments raised additional needs for sidewalk drainage issues on Governors Highway and tree trimming on Governors and Kedzie; these may be folded into future capital or maintenance projects.
