2014 Street Improvement Project
Dear Mr. Hullihan:
At your request, we are providing this proposal to provide professional engineering services
related to the preparation of the plans, specifications, and bidding documents for the
Village's 2014 Street Improvement Project. We understand that the Village will use
Infrastructure Funds therefore; IDOT coordination will not be required. Included below you
will find our Understanding of the Assignment, Scope of Services and Determination of Fee.
UNDERSTANDING OF THE ASSIGNMENT
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) understands that the Village of Oak Brook
would like to rehabilitate the streets located in four areas throughout the Village. These
projects are described as the 2014 Street Improvement Project. The project areas and
proposed improvements are as follows:
Area 1 (Coolidge Street)
The proposed improvements Will include the reconstruction of Coolidge Street from
31St Street to the terminus; approximately 1,140 square yards of pavement with 2.5"
hot-mix asphalt binder course and 2" hot-mix asphalt surface course, driveway
pavement removal and replacement (where necessary). The proposed cross section
will consist of two 9 foot wide lanes crowned at 2% and a turnaround shall be
provided at the north terminus. Improvements will.also include installation of new 12"
storm sewers, installation of drainage structures, and all necessary restoration.
Area 2 (35th Street):
This work will involve resurfacing and widening of 35th Street from Adams Road west
to the dead end. The street shall be widened an additional foot on either side to
maintain a 20 foot wide cross section. The widening will involve removing the outer
3 feet on either side of the existing pavement and constructing new 4 foot wide
pavement. The widening will include aggregate base course, type B, 6" and 3" hot-
mix asphalt binder course. The remaining pavement surface shall then be milled 3",
strip reflective crack control will cover the longitudinal joint and hot-mix asphalt
leveling binder 1" and 2" hot-mix asphalt surface course will be installed across the
entire width of pavement. 18" wide aggregate shoulders and all necessary
restoration will also be included.
Area 3 (Golf Drive):
Golf Drive improvements will involve the resurfacing of Golf Drive from York Road to
the end of the Oak Brook Golf Course parking lot and the reconstruction of the
access road from the parking lot to the north end of the driving range. The
resurfacing area, approximately 1,780 square yards involves hot-mix asphalt surface
removal, 3", hot-mix asphalt leveling binder, 1", and hot-mix asphalt surface course,
2". The reconstruction area, approximately 2,925 square yards, involves full depth
pavement removal, hot-mix asphalt binder course, 4" and hot-mix asphalt surface
course, 1.5". The reconstruction area will also involve widening in some areas to
provide for 18 foot wide cross section throughout.
Area 4 (Butler Government Center Parking Lot):
This area includes reconstructing a portion of the Butler Government Center (Village
Hall) parking lot as shown in the attached location map. The proposed improvement
will include full depth removal of the existing asphalt pavement (3") and removal of
an additional 2-inch of aggregate base course in order to provide for the installation
of a new 5-inch pavement section through the parking areas. The proposed
pavement section will consist of 3-inches of hot-mix asphalt binder course and 2-
inches of hot-mix asphalt surface course. The drive lanes shall include 3" surface
removal, 1" hot-mix asphalt leveling binder, and 2' hot-mix asphalt surface course.
Area 5 (Fire Station #2):
This area involves full depth PCC pavement patching of cracked sections of the rear
access drive of Fire Station #2.
Area 6 (Well House Parking Lot):
This area includes reconstructing the wellhouse access drive and parking lot. The
work involves full depth pavement removal, 2 1/4" hot-mix asphalt binder course and 1
3/4" hot-mix asphalt surface course.
The estimated construction budget for the 2014 Street Improvement Project is
approximately $875,000. It is anticipated that all areas will be bid as one project in 2014
and constructed during the 2014 construction season.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
DESIGN ENGINEERING:
Design services will include geotechnical investigation, limited topographic survey,
preparation of Contract Documents including plans and specifications, cost estimates,
permitting and bidding assistance. Our scope of services includes, but is not limited to, the
following:
Task 1 — Pavement Cores: CBBEL will retain Testing Service Corp. (TSC) to rrform
pavement cores of the subject streets. Four pavement cores will be taken along 35t Street
and the Butler Government Center Parking Lot; two cores will be taken in each other area
OCGlmc Page 2 of 7
N:\PR0P0SALS\ADMIN\2013\0ak Brook-2014 Street Improvement-Const Insp.101411doc
for a total of 16 cores. Auger samples will also be obtained of underlying base
course/subbase materials. A split-spoon will then be taken of the upper subgrade to a depth
of approximately 3 feet below the top of pavement. The core holes will be patched upon
completion using cold mix asphalt. The cores will be examined by a materials technician in
the laboratory, who will accurately measure and describe the various pavement courses.
Subgrade samples will also be examined by a soils technician. Laboratory testing will
include moisture content and dry unit weight determinations as well as pocket penetrometer
estimates of unconfined compressive strength, as appropriate. Upon completion of field and
laboratory work, a Pavement Core Summary report will be completed. The report will give
complete pavement and base course thicknesses as well as subgrade descriptions and
laboratory test data that will be used to determine the best method of rehabilitation.
Task 2 — Survey: CBBEL will perform a topographic survey of each area as required to
adequately complete design. Coolidge and 35th Street surveys will extend from ROW to
ROW.
CBBEL will perform the following survey tasks (as needed only):
Horizontal Control: Utilizing state plane coordinates, CBBEL will set recoverable
primary control utilizing our GPS equipment.
Vertical Control: CBBEL will perform a level circuit throughout the entire length of the
project establishing benchmarks and assigning elevations to the horizontal control
points. The elevations will be based on NGVD of 1929 to coincide with the DuPage
County datum.
Topographic Survey: CBBEL will field locate all pavements, driveways, curb and
gutters, pavement markings, signs, manholes, utility vaults, drainage structures, cross
road culverts, etc.
Cross-Sections: CBBEL will survey cross-sections of all areas to the extent needed in
each area.
Utility Survey: CBBEL will utilize existing storm and sanitary sewer information that
has been surveyed during the GIS Project for the Village. Above ground facilities of
any additional underground utilities including watermain, gas, electric, cable, etc. will
also be located.
Tree Survey: CBBEL will locate all trees over 6 inches in diameter within the existing
right of way.
CBBEL will also obtain utility information from all known utility companies along the project
corridor and include the utility information in the existing conditions base sheets developed
from the above information. The base sheets will be drafted at a scale of 1"=20'.
Task 3 — Field Reconnaissance: CBBEL Construction Staff will perform a Field
Reconnaissance of the streets to be improved. The purpose of the Field Reconnaissance
will be to determine the limits of curb and gutter repairs, sidewalk replacement to meet ADA
requirements (if applicable), full depth pavement patching, and drainage issues. To ensure
all existing drainage issues are detected, CBBEL will complete a site inspection following a
rain event to determine any ponding locations. CBBEL will inspect existing conditions on
Coolidge to determine the best route for the proposed sewer and will also review the
existing drainage along Golf Drive to determine if the lines provide adequate drainage. The
results of the Field Reconnaissance will be reviewed with the Engineering Department and
OCGlmc Page 3 of 7
N:IPROPOSALSWDMINM13\Oak Brook-2014 Street Improvement-Const Insp.101413.doc
compared to previous estimates to determine their impact on the estimated construction
cost.
Task 4 — Plans, Specifications, and Estimates: CBBEL will prepare Plans, Specifications
and Estimates for the Street Improvements utilizing the information described in the
above tasks. We will utilize information from our topographic survey in Task 2.
Locations of new storm sewers and corresponding drainage structures will be drafted
after coordination with the Village. Areas 5 and 6 will not be surveyed; aerials will be
utilized to depict the proposed work at these locations.
In addition, CBBEL will develop special provisions and estimates of cost and working days.
The special provisions will be based on IDOT Standard Pay Items and Specifications. Hot-
Mix Asphalt mix requirement specifications will be per the 2013 Paving Project. Plans will
be submitted to the Village for review at the 75%, 90% and 100% level.
Task 5 — Bidding Assistance: CBBEL will provide the Village with Plans, Specifications,
and Contract Documents to be distributed to all bidders, and will be present at the bid
opening to be held at Village Hall. CBBEL will review and tabulate all of the bids, check
references, and make a recommendation of award.
Task 6 —CCDD Evaluation and Report: CBBEL will also retain TSC perform a "Potentially
Impacted Property" (PIP) evaluation for the completion of the LPC-662 Form and, if
necessary, provide sampling and laboratory analyses for completion of the LPC-663 Form.
Uncontaminated soil including uncontaminated soil mixed with clean construction or
demolition debis (CCDD) accepted at a CCDD fill operation must be certified to be
uncontaminated soil in accordance with Section 22.51(f)(2)(B) of the Environmental
Protection Act [45 ILCS 5/22.51(f)(2)(13)]. Uncontaminated soil accepted at an
uncontaminated soil fill operation must be certified to uncontaminated soil in accordance
with Section 22.51 a(d)(2)(B) of the Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS
5122.51 a(d)(2)(B). These certifications must be made by a licensed professional engineer or
geologist (PE/PG) using the Form LPC-663 when the soil is removed from a site which is
determined by the PE/PG to be a "Potentially Impacted Property" (PIP) based on review of
readily ascertainable property history, environmental databases and site reconnaissance.
Uncontaminated soil from a site which is not identified as a PIP by the PE/PG may be
certified by either the source site owner or operator using a LPC-662 with pH analysis only.
TSC will evaluate current Federal and State environmental agency records for the source
site and vicinity by obtaining a Radius Map Report from Environmental Data Resources, Inc.
(EDR). TSC will also perform a site reconnaissance to evaluate the property for evidence of
the use or release of hazardous substances or petroleum products. A sample for pH
analysis will be obtained from pavement cores outlined in Task 1. Based on the results of
this review, the TSC Professional Geologist will conclude if the source sites are a PIP. If the
source site is not identified as a PIP and pH analysis meet requirements, TSC will prepare a
letter discussing the reviewed information and recommend that the Owner or Operator sign
the LPC-662 Form certifying that the site is not a PIP and the soil is presumed to be
uncontaminated.
In the event that the source site is identified as PIP, soil sampling and analysis will be
performed for completion of the LPC-663 form at additional costs of $1,200 per site. A
summary report will be prepared which describes the sampling procedures and results of the
analytical laboratory testing. If all analytical results meet their respective Maximum
Allowable Concentrations of Chemical Constituents in Uncontaminated Soil Used as Fill
OCGlmc g
NAPROPOSALS\ADMIN\2013\0ak Brook-2014 Street Improvement-Const Insp.101413.doc Pa e 4 O 7
Material At Regulated Fill Operations (MACs), Form LPC-663 will be filled out and signed by
a Licensed Professional Engineer or Geologist.
Please note that signing of Form LPC-663 is contingent upon all constituents meeting their
respective MACs. If any constituent exceeds the MACs, the Licensed Professional will not
be able to certify the soil as uncontaminated. In that event, additional analysis may be
required in connection with disposal at a Subtitle D landfill, at additional cost for consulting,
analytical testing and completion of the wasted profile.

to this Agreement are intended for use on the Project only. They cannot be used by
Client or others on extensions of the Project or any other project. Any reuse, without
specific written verification or adaptation by Engineer, shall be at Client's sole risk, and
Client shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer from all claims,damages, losses,and
expenses including attorney's fees arising out of or resulting therefrom.
The Engineer shall have the right to include representations of the design of the Project,
including photographs of the exterior and interior,among the Engineer's promotional and
professional materials. The Engineers materials shall not include the Client's
confidential and proprietary information if the Client has previously advised the Engineer
in writing of the specific information considered by the Client to be confidential and
proprietary.
8. Standard of Practice: The Engineer will strive to conduct services under this agreement
in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members
of the profession currently practicing in the same locality under similar conditions as of
the date of this Agreement.
9. Compliance With Laws: The Engineer will strive to exercise usual and customary
professional care in his/her efforts to comply with those laws, codes, ordinance and
regulations which are in effect as of the date of this Agreement.
With specific respect to prescribed requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990 or certified state or local accessibility regulations(ADA), Client understands ADA is
a civil rights legislation and that interpretation of ADA is a legal issue and not a design
issue and, accordingly, retention of legal counsel (by Client) for purposes of
interpretation is advisable. As such and with respect to ADA, Client agrees to waive any
action against Engineer, and to indemnify and defend Engineer against any claim arising
from Engineer's alleged failure to meet ADA requirements prescribed.
3
Further to the law and code compliance, the Client understands that the Engineer will
strive to provide designs in accordance with the prevailing Standards of Practice as
previously set forth, but that the Engineer does not warrant that any reviewing agency
having jurisdiction will not for its own purposes comment, request changes and/or
additions to such designs. In the event such design requests are made by a reviewing
agency, but which do not exist in the form of a written regulation, ordinance or other
similar document as published by the reviewing agency, then such design changes (at
substantial variance from the.intended design developed by the Engineer), if effected
and incorporated into the project documents by the Engineer, shall be considered as
Supplementary Task(s) to the Engineer's Scope of Service and compensated for
accordingly.
10. Indemnification: Engineer shall indemnify and hold harmless Client up to the amount of
this contract fee(for services)from loss or expense, including reasonable attorney's fees
for claims for personal injury(including death) or property damage to the extent caused
by the sole negligent act, error or omission of Engineer.
Client shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer under this Agreement, from loss or
expense, including reasonable attorney's fees,for claims for personal injuries(including
death)or property damage arising out of the sole negligent act, error omission of Client.
In the event of joint or concurrent negligence of Engineer and Client, each shall bear that
portion of the loss or expense that its share of the joint or concurrent negligence bears to
the total negligence (including that of third parties),which caused the personal injury or
property damage.
Engineer shall not be liable for special, incidental or consequential damages, including,
but not limited to loss of profits, revenue, use of capital, claims of customers, cost of
purchased or replacement power, or for any other loss of any nature,whether based on
contract,tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, by reasons of the services rendered
under this Agreement.
11. Opinions of Probable Cost: Since Engineer has no control over the cost of labor,
materials or equipment, or over the Contractor(s) method of determining process, or
over competitive bidding or market conditions, his/her opinions of probable Project
Construction Cost provided for herein are to be made on the basis of his/her experience
and qualifications and represent his/her judgement as a design professional familiar with
the construction industry, but Engineer cannot and does not guarantee that proposal,
bids or the Construction Cost will not vary from opinions of probable construction cost
prepared by him/her. If prior to the Bidding or Negotiating Phase, Client wishes greater
accuracy as to the Construction Cost, the Client shall employ an independent cost
estimator Consultant for the purpose of obtaining a second construction cost opinion
independent from Engineer.
12. Governing Law & Dispute Resolutions: This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with Articles previously set forth by(Item 9 of)this Agreement,
together with the laws of the State of Illinois.

proceedings,which shall be stayed pending mediation for a period of 60 days from the
date of filing, unless stayed for a longer period by agreement of the parties or court
order.
The parties shall share the mediator's fee and any filing fees equally. The mediation
shall be held in the place where the Project is located, unless another location is

law, the Engineer's total aggregate liability to the Client for any and all injuries, claims,
costs, losses, expenses, damages of any nature whatsoever or claim expenses arising
out of this Agreement from any cause or causes, including attorney's fees and costs,
and expert witness fees and costs, shall not exceed the total Engineer's fee for
professional engineering services rendered on this project as made part of this
Agreement. Such causes included but are not limited to the Engineer's negligence,
errors, omissions, strict liability or breach of contract. It is intended that this limitation
apply to any and all liability or cause of action however alleged or arising, unless
otherwise prohibited by law.

services as may be necessary at any time for the Project, including auditing services
which the Client may require to verify the Contractor's Application for Payment or to
ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used the money paid by or on
behalf of the Client.
The Client agrees to require the Contractor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Engineer, its consultants, and the employees
and agents of any of them from and against any and all claims, suits, demands,
liabilities, losses, damages, and costs ("Losses"), including but not limited to costs of
defense, arising in whole or in part out of the negligence of the Contractor, its
subcontractors, the officers, employees, agents, and subcontractors of any of them, or
anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of whether or not such
Losses are caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder. Specifically excluded from
the foregoing are Losses arising out of the preparation or approval of maps, drawings,
opinions, reports,surveys, change orders,designs, or specifications, and the giving of or
failure to give directions by the Engineer, its consultants, and the agents and employees
of any of them, provided such giving or failure to give is the primary cause of Loss. The
Client also agrees to require the Contractor to provide to the Engineer the required
certificate of insurance.
The Client further agrees to require the Contractor to name the Engineer, its agents and
consultants as additional insureds on the Contractor's policy or policies of
comprehensive or commercial general liability insurance. Such insurance shall include

Contractor, the Client agrees to be wholly responsible for setting forth any and all such
insurance requirements. Furthermore, any document provided for Client review by the
Engineer under this Contract related to such insurance(s)shall be considered as sample
insurance requirements and not the recommendation of the Engineer. Client agrees to
have their own risk management department review any and all insurance requirements
for adequacy and to determine specific types of insurance(s) required for the project.
Client further agrees that decisions concerning types and amounts of insurance are
specific to the project and shall be the product of the Client. As such, any and all
insurance requirements made part of Contract Documents prepared by the Engineer are
not to be considered the Engineer's recommendation, and the Client shall make the final
decision regarding insurance requirements.
25. Information Provided by Others: The Engineer shall indicate to the Client the
information needed for rendering of the services of this Agreement. The Client shall
provide to the Engineer such information as is available to the Client and the Client's
consultants and contractors, and the Engineer shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy
and completeness thereof. The Client recognizes that it is impossible for the Engineer
to assure the accuracy, completeness and sufficiency of such information, either
because it is impossible to verify, or because of errors or omissions which may have
occurred in assembling the information the Client is providing. Accordingly, the Client
agrees,to the fullest extent permitted by law,to indemnify and hold the Engineer and the
Engineer's subconsultants harmless from any claim, liability or cost (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and cost of defense) for injury or loss arising or allegedly
arising from errors, omissions or inaccuracies in documents or other information
provided by the Client to the Engineer.

preceding period. Client agrees to pay each invoice within thirty(30)days of its receipt.
The client further agrees to pay interest on all amounts invoiced and not paid or objected
to for valid cause within said thirty (30) day period at the rate of eighteen (18) percent
per annum (or the maximum interest rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is
the lesser) until paid. Client further agrees to pay Engineer's cost of collection of all
amounts due and unpaid after sixty (60) days, including court costs and reasonable
attorney's fees, as well as costs attributed to suspension of services accordingly and as
follows:
Collection Costs. In the event legal action is necessary to enforce the payment
provisions of this Agreement, the Engineer shall be entitled to collect from the
Client any judgement or settlement sums due, reasonable attorneys'fees, court
costs and expenses incurred by the Engineer in connection therewith and, in
addition, the reasonable value of the Engineer's time and expenses spent in
connection with such collection action, computed at the Engineer's prevailing fee
schedule and expense policies.

clause is incorporated)agrees to assume the entire liability for all personal injury
claims suffered by its own employees, including without limitation claims under
the Illinois Structural Work Act, asserted by persons allegedly injured on the
Project; waives any limitation of liability defense based upon the Worker's
Compensation Act, court interpretations of said Act or otherwise; and to the
fullest extent permitted by law, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless and
defend Owner and Engineer and their agents, employees and consultants (the
"Indemnitees") from and against all such loss, expense, damage or injury,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, that the Indemnitees may sustain as a
result of such claims, except to the extent that Illinois law prohibits indemnity for
the Indemnitees'own negligence. The Owner and Engineer are designated and
recognized as explicit third party beneficiaries of the Kotecki Waiver within the

and consultants, agents and employees of each of them for damages to the extent
covered by property insurance during construction.The Client and Engineer each shall
require similar waivers from the Contractor, consultants, agents and persons or entities
awarded separate contracts administered under the Client's own forces.
