AGENDA TITLE: Approve Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids 2013/14 Asphalt
Materials
MEETING DATE: April 17, 2013
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve specifications and authorize advertisement for bids
2013/14 asphalt materials.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The asphalt materials purchase is needed to carry out preventive
street maintenance and repairs. In the past few years, due to budget
shortfalls, the street maintenance program did not include a thin
overlay program but only purchased materials needed for localized repairs.
The amount of asphalt requested for Fiscal Year 2013/14 is the same as the previous year (800 tons) to
accommodate localized repair needs. The proposed contract will include an optional cost for delivery, at
the City's discretion, if needed.
The specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The project estimate is $60,000. The
planned bid opening date is May 15, 2013.
FISCAL IMPACT: Preventive maintenance will extend the useful life of our streets and reduce
future street reconstruction costs.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at contract award.
