Overview
In April of 2016 the Village of Oak Park entered into an agreement with Strand Associates to provide Construction Inspection Services for the Site/Civil Work at the Emerson (previously Oak Park Station) Development project. The intent of the agreement was to provide full time inspection services during the underground utility work and then inspection of the streetscape and paving work at varying levels of coverage from part time to full time depending on the work involved.

In 2016 Underground utility work took significantly more time than originally projected by Tishman Construction which required more time and cost for the Village's inspection of the work. This year there has been additional delays in streetscape and paving construction, and numerous design changes requiring Strand to be onsite more than anticipated in the original agreement and amendment. This amendment would allow Strand to inspect part time to full time depending on the specific work activity up to late October as needed.
