AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Approving Application for Rubberized Asphalt Concrete
(RAC) Chip Seal Grant from California Integrated Waste Management Board
(CIWMB) and Authorizing City Manager to Execute Grant Agreements
MEETING DATE: February 20,2008
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution approving application for Rubberized Asphalt
Concrete (RAC) Chip Seal Grant from California Integrated Waste
Management Board (CIWMB) and authorizing the City Manager to
execute grant agreements.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The CIWMB administers tire grant programs to provide opportunities
to divert waste tires from landfills and prevent illegal tire dumping.
The RAC Chip Seal Grant Program provides assistance to local
governments to fund RAC chip seal projects for road repair and
maintenance. The grant program has a set per -square -yard reimbursement rate for the use of RAC chip
seal material. The City will receive a reimbursementat a rate of $1 per square yard of RAC chip seal
material used. The maximum reimbursement amount each jurisdiction is eligible to receive is $150,000,
although based on our preliminary plans, we anticipate a reimbursementof approximately $100,000.
The surface treatment utilized in Lodi is called a rubberized cape seal. The first application in this
treatment is a chip seal, and the second is a slurry seal. The chip seal provides a membrane to prevent
water from seeping under the pavement, which can rapidly deteriorate a road. The slurry seal provides a
smoother surface with a uniform black color. In many cases, the use of a cape seal will eliminate the
need to do expensive pavement patching and will add years to the life of the existing pavement.
Although this will be the third rubberized cape seal for the City of Lodi, it is the first time a grant has been
made available. The previous projects have performed well.
FISCAL IMPACT: By utilizing grant funds, the City will be able to make maintenance money go
further, allowing for more repair and maintenance at a minimum cost to the City.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: The grant is a reimbursementfor funds spent on a capital project scheduled for
FY 20
