AGENDA TITLE: Adopt litesolution Accepting Improvements Under Contract for the Asphalt
Rubber Cape Seal, Various Streets, 2006 Project
MEETINS DATE: November 15, 2006
PREPAF D BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMEND ACTION: Adopt a resolution accepting the improvements under the "Asphalt
Rubber Cape Seal, Various Streets, 2006 Project" contract.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to International Surfacing Systems, Inc., of
Modesto, in the amount of $358,899.60, at the Council meeting on
May 27, 2006.
The Asphalt Rubber Cape Seal, Various Streets, 2006 project consisted of the rehabilitation and resurfacing of
various City streets with a layer of an asphalt rubberized chip seal followed by a layer of slurry seal on top
which was placed approximately seven days after the chip seal. The combination of the asphalt rubberized
chip seal and the slurry is commonly known as a cape seal. While a slurry seal only seals the road and
provides a new wearing surface, the hot applied asphalt rubberized cape seal provides added strength,
stability and crack reduction benefits similar to the performance benefits of an overlay but at a much lower
cost. An asphalt rubberized cape seal provides a cost-effective alternative to a more costly asphalt overlay to
extend the life and rehabilitate deteriorated roads and streets within the City. This asphalt rubberized cape
seal provides for an added step in the City's street maintenance program that defers the need for an asphalt
overlay and possibly decreases the costs of that overlay. This is a new method of pavement rehabilitation for
the City of Lodi and is being evaluated by staff for its effectiveness as part of the City's overall efforts to
maximize limited street maintenance resources. So far, this product is performing as desired. No claims have
been received related to this project.
The contract completion date was August 1, 2006, and the project was substantially complete on
July 24, 2006. The final contract price was $340,482.19. The delay in accepting this project was due to minor
striping corrections that needed to be done by the subcontractor. The difference between the contract amount
and the final contract price is due to a decrease in the actual square yardage of cape seal that was placed as
compared with the original contract estimate for this project.
Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineer will file a Notice of Completion
with the County Recorder's office. The notice serves to notify vendors and subcontractors that the project is
complete and begins their 30 -day period to file a stop notice requiring the City to withhold payments from the
prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute.
FISCAL IMPACT: There should be a slight decrease in short-term street maintenance costs.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Budgeted Fund: Measure K $395,000.00
Total Contract Amount: $340,482.19
