REPORT & RECOMMENDATION

APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF WOOD DALE & CONCENTRIC INTEGRATION FOR UPGRADES TO CITY’S SCADA SYSTEM

DISCUSSION:

Ald. E. Wesley asked which plant the SCADA system is for and was advised by Director Lange it’s kept at the north Wastewater Treatment plant, but is used for all lift stations and water pumping stations. Ald. Jakab asked if any quotes were obtained from other companies. Mr. Lange explained this company installed and hosts Wood Dale’s system. Nick Kace noted that the City is using the scale technologies for the equipment, which is the same as what City Hall has. It will allow the capability to sync back and forth data from City Hall to Wastewater as a disaster recovery scenario.

APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF WOOD DALE AND COMPASS MINERALS AMERICA, INC.

DISCUSSION:

Ald. Susmarski inquired about the amount of salt used in the past. Director Lang stated the City used 580 tons last year, and purchased about 594 which was 46 tons lower than the minimum requirement to purchase. Mr. Lange estimates the City will need 800 tons; they are required to purchase at least 80% of that number which is 640 tons, but had capability to purchase up to 130% which would be slightly over 1,000 tons. This amount is for the 130% figure, which is 1,040 tons.

REPORT & RECOMMENDATION:

APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF WOOD DALE AND BROTHERS ASPHALT PAVING FOR FY2021 CAPITAL ROAD RESURFACING PROGRAM

DISCUSSION:

Ald. Catalano inquired about George Street and partnering with the Village of Itasca for their side of the road. Mr. Mermuys stated that the City originally reached out to Itasca and worked out a tentative deal and was awaiting the formal IGA. However, in the interim the COVID crisis occurred, and Itasca decided to cancel their road program for the next year, which put this project on hold. Ald. Catalano requested a letter be sent to those residents on George explaining the reason for the delay; Mr. Mermuys agreed to work with Director Lange to do so. Mr. Lange noted that George Street repairs were replaced with Apollo Court and Roy Drive, which were rated a 1 (Failed) and 3 (Very Poor) respectively. Mayor Pulice asked about repairing streets that will eventually be redone anyway with the large water main project. Mr. Lange explained that staff does take that into consideration when redoing streets, and has coordinated the City’s road program around that stormwater project.
