A Resolution Approving a Compensation and Indemnification Agreement for Landscaping and Paving Damage with Northern Illinois Gas Company d/b/a Nicor Gas Company for the Resurfacing of North Boulevard in an Amount not to Exceed $70,000 and Authorizing its Execution
end
Introduction
overview
Nicor recently completed gas main improvements generally between Kenilworth and Euclid Avenues, from North Boulevard to Lake Street, in conjunction with the Oak Park Avenue Streetscape project. Nicor has completed the majority of the restoration of the impacted areas outside of the limits of the Village’s streetscape project except on North Blvd. Instead of having Nicor just patch North Blvd. from Kenilworth to Oak Park Ave., this agreement allows Nicor to pay the Village the $70,000 they would have spent for their roadway patching so that the Village can fully resurface North Blvd. as part of the streetscape project, which is estimated to cost the Village approximately $72,000 based on the contract unit prices.
