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 ans, Budget Manager Richard C. Prima. Jr. Public Works Director Prepared by George M. Bradley.
