Summary: The Department of Transportation and Highways respectfully requests approval of the proposed Grant Award Amendment between the Department and the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The grant in the amount of $22,087,000.00 was approved by this Board on April 25, 2019. The FY2020 budget appropriation was $18,577,000.00; however, the total grant spending has been $11,928,021.00 due to delays in the project work. This resulted in the FY2021 carryover amount of $7,039,595.00. Most of delays were brought upon by pandemic related issues, utility conflicts and supplier delays, and the planned construction in late FY2020 was shifted into FY2021. Work items that were shifted into FY2021 include the Weiland Road and Buffalo Grove Road Bridges over Buffalo Creek. At this time, the Department seeks to carryover the remaining FY2020 balance of $7,039,385.00; thereby, increasing the FY2021 appropriation to $10,158,979.00.
