ITEM 63,
AGENDA ITEM
Regular Board of Trustees Meeting
of
October 14, 2008
FROM: Rania Serences, Purchasing Clerk
BUDGET SOURCE /BUDGET IMPACT: N/A
RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move that the Village Board adopt the attached ordinance
authorizing the sale of 222 Light Poles and Luminaries.
Background/History:
The Village standard for street lighting has been rectangular anodized aluminum poles with
rectangular "box' luminaries. As part of the Village beautification project a new standard light
has been selected. The new lights will be installed along 22nd Street under the current I -88
bridge contract. Presently the Department of Public Works has 72 light poles and luminaries that
can be sold. There will be an additional 150 light poles and luminaries that will be taken out of
service and can be sold in the next 10 months. Approval is being requested for the total of 222
light poles and luminaries.
In future projects the old style lights will continue to be replaced with the new standard light.
The Village will first register these items with an online auctioneer run by the State of Illinois,
known as iBid. We first used iBid in December 2007 to sell a 1980 Ford F360 that was used by
the Fire Department and the experience was favorable. If inadequate or no bids are received
through the online auction, staff will advertise for bids. If no bids are received the light poles and
luminaries will be disposed.
Recommendation:
That the Village Board adopt the attached ordinance authorizing the sale of 222 Light Poles and
Luminaries.
