A Resolution Approving a Retail Lease Agreement for a Construction Field Office at 104 North Oak Park Avenue for the Oak Park Avenue Streetscape Project in an Amount not to Exceed $28,500 and Authorizing its Execution
end
Introduction
overview
A construction field office is needed in order to have a space for the Village's consultant to use when managing the upcoming Oak Park Avenue Streetscape project. For these types of large projects, providing a field office is typically done by the project's contractor as a pay item. The Engineering Division found office space within the Hemingway District, which will be the most convenient and allow for hosting meetings with businesses during the project. By the Engineering Division finding and leasing this field office instead of using the construction contract pay item, the Village will be saving approximately $2,000 per month, or approximately $38,000, over the 19-month term of the lease.
