COMMITTEE ON PROCUREMENT

 

Mr. David St. Pierre, Executive Director

 

Title

Authorization to further amend and revise File No. 17-0411 (Agenda Item No. 12) Authority to advertise Contract 13-370-3F, Buffalo Creek Reservoir Expansion, estimated cost between, $20,074,055.75 and $24,300,172.75, Accounts 401-50000-645620 and 501-50000-645620, Requisition 1461806 (As Revised) (Deferred from the April 20, 2017 Board Meeting) “ADOPTED AS AMENDED REFER TO FILE ID #17-0411A”

(Deferred from the July 6, 2017 Board Meeting)

Body

 

Dear Sir:

 

At the Board meeting of May 4, 2017, the Board of Commissioners duly ordered the above stated action.

 

A motion to amend File No. 17-0411, Agenda Item 12 to require the successful Contractor eventually awarded said contract to enter into a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) with the District and to authorize the District to enter into such PLA was also approved at the May 4, 2017 Board meeting.  The Lake County Building and Trades Council and its Union affiliates (collectively “Council”) have now expressed an interest in entering into a Multi-Project Labor Agreement (MPLA) as attached.  Accordingly, the District now further amends the prior Board Order to delete and remove any PLA requirement and instead require a MPLA on this public improvement project in Lake County Illinois. 

 

Therefore, it is requested that the aforesaid Board order of May 4, 2017 be amended to effect the changes set forth above, otherwise to remain in force and effect as heretofore enacted including advertisement of said contract documents and further authorization to enter into said MPLA.  A companion Board transmittal letter is on today’s agenda seeking authority to enter into an MPLA with the Council.

 

Requested, Susan T. Morakalis, Acting General Counsel STM:HSW:kk

Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management

Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement

Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for August 3, 2017
