9/8/2020 Coversheet <br /> 4.Unforeseen complex drainage issues that presented themselves as the design progressed. The project was originally <br /> designed to run from Faries Parkway to William Street. Carving the project into thirds also carved the drainage into thirds <br /> meaning that drainage that was originally planned to go way south,needed to be handled within the new project limits. This <br /> resulted in some more extensive design work than was originally intended. <br /> 5.Increased permit requirements with the railroads. <br /> The City has approached IDOT and the Illinois Commerce Commission to use Grade Crossing Protection Funds to cover the added <br /> $576,078 design cost. If approved,this will be brought back to Council as an amendment to the City-State joint agreement. <br /> PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION: <br /> See Appendix A for prior Council action on this item. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: There are no known objections. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: AECOM,Illinois Department of Transportation <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Matt Newell,Public Works Director.Matt will attend the City Council meeting to answer any questions <br /> of the Council on this item. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: <br /> Design work is over 60%complete.
