C. Agreement with ESSCOE, LLC for the Police Department CCTV and Access
Control System Updates in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $70,000
Summary: As a result of the relocation of Lake Zurich dispatch center staff to
the consolidated dispatch center in Libertyville in the third quarter of this
year, the Police Department requires the expansion of its CCTV and access
control system. ESSCOE, LLC has been requested to submit a proposal for
upgrading the existing system, which was originally installed and maintained
by them, to meet the new operational requirements. These systems are highly
2
integrated and technically intricate, and soliciting bids from multiple vendors
is not be the most efficient or cost-effective approach for the Village.
Staff recommends awarding a contract to ESSCOS, LLC for the expansion of
CCTV and door access control systems in the Police Department in the amount
not-to-exceed $70,000.
D. Agreement with Upland Design Ltd. for the Key Parks Master Plan in the
Amount Not-to-Exceed $98,910
Summary: The objective of the Parks Master Plan is to optimize the Village’s
existing key park properties while strategically planning for the future
allocation of resources and potential redevelopment of these parks over the
next 5 to 10 years. The FY 2025 Budget currently includes $100,000 in funding
to support the development of the Master Plan.
The Village announced a Request for Proposal on March 3 for the development
of a master plan for key parks and received twelve proposals in response. A
multi-department review team evaluated the proposals and concluded that
Upland Design Ltd.’s submittal offered the park development and renovation
expertise that would best match the Village’s needs at this time.
Staff recommends awarding an agreement to Upland Design Ltd. to develop a
master plans for key parks in the amount not-to-exceed $98,910.
E. Agreement with Paramedic Billing Services Inc. for Providing Ambulance
Billing Services in the Village of Lake Zurich
Summary: The Village is seeking new ambulance billing service since the last
agreement with Andres Medical Service was updated in 1997. Many
regulatory and compliance changes have occurred involving billing practices
for Emergency Medical Service providers. Village staff researched vendors that
are well versed in current regulatory standards of ambulance billing and
practices that afford the community to receive EMS services that are cost-
effective and reliable.
Staff had found a limited number of ambulance service providers available.
Paramedic Billing Services stood out as their fee structure remains the same
as Andres at 4% of revenues collected, while offering greater administrator
support, record keeping, and assistance with federal and state reimbursement
submittals.
Staff recommends the approval of an agreement with Paramedic Billing
Services Inc as the Villages ambulance billing services provider.
Recommended Action: A motion to approve the Consent Agenda as presented.
