This is a project description and bid list for the Western Avenue Early Action Plan Greenway project administered by the City of Joliet, Illinois. The project encompasses three major components: landscape removals, corner landscaping improvements at Western Avenue and Hickory Street, and central seating with holiday tree area enhancements. Project 1 involves the removal of 10 deciduous shade trees and 3 evergreen trees with stump grinding 18 inches below grade and lawn restoration. Project 2 requires removal of 3 flagpoles, power washing of 2 segmental retaining walls, removal of 1,025 square feet of groundcover and lawn, installation of a custom post-mounted sign with aluminum posts and concrete footings, installation of 350 square feet of shrubs and groundcover, placement of 22 full round log steppers with concrete footings and exterior paint, installation of 675 square feet of engineered fiber mulch, and placement of 6 habitat house structures. Project 3 calls for installation of 4 precast concrete seating pebbles, 17 precast concrete benches (including 4 Concrete III benches and various Centeniare models), 3,510 square feet of sodded lawn with 4-inch topsoil, 20 screening shrubs at 4-foot height and spacing, and 675 square feet of mulch at 3-inch depth.

The document specifies detailed supplier requirements and product specifications, including Columbia Cascade full round steppers, Vestre Habitats Wings bird houses with hot-dip galvanized steel construction and lifetime rust warranty, and Wausau Tile precast concrete furnishings with A20 white acid wash finish. All installations require manufacturer-supplied hardware, bolt templates, and adherence to manufacturer instructions. The contractor must provide shop drawings for the custom sign and planting plans for landscape installations, subject to City review and approval. Prior to tree removals, the contractor must coordinate with City staff to tag all trees designated for removal. The project requires preparation of a detailed budget for HUD submission before construction commences. No cost column information is provided in this bid list document, indicating that pricing details are to be determined by bidders during the procurement process.
