Cech, Director of Public Works George B. Knickerbocker, Village Attorney Greg Riddle,Deputy Fire(thief Steve Sullivan, Training Coordinator FIRE DEPARTMENT TRAINING FACILITY The Committee reviewed a video tape of a training facility and discussed a memo from the Fire Chief date May 8, 1998. Computers control the"fireplace"training burners to ensure safety and to provide feedback to firefighters. Other fire departments utilizing the Elk Grove facility would pay a fee to do so. It was determined by staff and concurred by the Committee that BWC submitted the most responsive and responsible proposal due to BWC having the: • lowest cost proposal when all factors were considered; • experienced"training facility"construction consultants as part of the project team; and, • serving as the construction manager for the Fire Station construction project with experience regarding the Village's site,personal knowledge of municipal staff, and the ability to coordinate trades on both projects concurrently. The consensus of the Committee was to recommend that the Village Board award a contract to BWC of Decatur,Illinois for the construction of a training facility in the amount of$750,000 including one"fireplace"burner. This approval will be placed on the May 26 Village Board Committee of the Whole Agenda and Consent Agenda. Funds in the amount of$750,000 are budgeted for this project. In addition, it was the consensus of the Committee to request that the Foreign Fire Insurance Board consider funding the second"fireplace"burner at a cost of$150,000. Should the Foreign Fire Insurance Board choose not to fund the second burner,the CIC would recommend that the Village Board consider adding the second burner to the project. PLUM GROVE ROAD SIDEWALKFROM ORIOLE TO NERGE The Committee reviewed a memo from the Village President concerning the installation of a sidewalk along the east side of Plum Grove Road from Oriole to the Roselle "Town Center" shopping center. The cost for the sidewalk is approximately$11,500. This includes $500 worth of work on property located in Roselle. In addition, it includes some sidewalk extension work on Oriole. The consensus of the Committee was to recommend approving the sidewalk installation subject to Roselle agreeing to fund approximately $500 of work in their corporate limits. Staff will contact the Village of Roselle requesting their funding assistance on this project.
