BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contract was awarded to Intermountain Slurry Seal, Inc., of Watsonville, in the amount of $811,118, on May 1, 2013. The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by City Council. The project consisted of the rehabilitation and resurfacing of various City streets with a layer of asphalt rubberized chip seal followed by a layer of slurry seal on top. The combination of the asphalt, rubberized chip seal and the slurry is commonly known as a "cape seal." In the proper application, an asphalt rubberized cape seal is a more cost-effective alternative than using a traditional asphalt overlay for rehabilitating City streets in poor condition. Staff also added a list of residential streets to be rehabilitated with slurry seal only. These streets had no structural deficiencies and had fewer pavement cracks than the streets receiving the rubberized cape seal. The slurry seal sealed the pavement and provided a new wearing surface to the existing pavement. The contract completion date was September 27, 2013. The final contract price was $847,414.43. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is due to an increase in the bid item quantities for pavement crack seal and pavement skin patch, as requested by the City. 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: The project will reduce the maintenance costs in the treated area. FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded by Proposition 1 B funds. F.
