BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The asphalt materials purchase is required to perform preventive street maintenance and repairs. Due to budget constraints, the street maintenance program asphalt material purchase is less this year than in the past. The estimated cost of the asphalt material is $39,000. For the most part, asphalt materials will be transported by City forces. Should trucking services be required, it will be contracted on an informal bid basis, as the individual costs will be less than $5,000 per event. This has been the accepted past practice and will allow us to obtain services from multiple sources on an informal basis rather than relying upon one providerfor the entire season. The specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date is June 30,2010. FISCAL IMPACT: This budgeted expense will assist the Streets and Drainage Division in its continuing effort to maintain the City of Lodi's asphalt paving. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding to be designated at award of contract. Project Estimate: $39,000 F.
