Resolution FP-R2023-002 awards the project for the resurfacing 3 miles of the Great Western Trail with ag lime. The DeKalb County Highway Department assisted the Forest Preserve District with the bid specifications and bid letting. Since the trail was acquired in 1986 as an abandoned railroad right of way, about every 12 + years new ag lime has been placed on the Great Western Trail. There are DeKalb County Forest Preserve District Funds to pay for this project. Bids were opened by the Highway Department on March 22nd.
The Project received three bids and the lowest responsible bidder was Schroeder Asphalt Services, Inc of Marengo, IL, who submitted a bid of $106,120.00 for 2800 tons of aggregate surface course (unit price of $37.90 per ton). The Engineer’s estimate for the project is $71,960.00.
