� � w <br /> ECONOMIC AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM <br /> No. 03-56 <br /> June 26, 2003 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor Paul Osborne and City Council Members <br /> FROM: Steve Garman, City Manager <br /> A.J. Krieger, Assistant City Manage <br /> SUBJECT: Mound & US 51 Phase II Environmental Assessment <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> Approval of the attached resolution will authorize execution of an agreement with Bodine <br /> Environmental Services, Inc. for a Phase II environmental assessment of the US 51 and Mound <br /> Road site. The total cost of the contract is $9,460.00. City staff recommends approval. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> As Council may recall, a Phase I environmental analysis of the Mound/51 site was performed <br /> earlier this year. That Phase I, performed by Bodine, determined a need to conduct a Phase II <br /> analysis. The Phase II is necessary to determine what, if any, environmental contaminants are <br /> present. <br /> The purchase agreement between Decatur Public School District 61 and the City of Decatur <br /> requires the City to pay for the Phase II analysis. <br /> Bodine will perform the analysis in such a manner as to eventually secure a no further <br /> remediation letter from the Illinois EPA. <br /> Given the location of the former underground storage tanks within the Mound School building, it ' <br /> is necessary and advisable that this Phase II analysis be performed during the summer when no ' <br /> students are present. ' <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: II <br /> City staff is not aware of any opposition to the attached resolution. � <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: <br /> N/A <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: <br /> If Council members have uestions the ma contact A.J.
