AGENDA TITLE: Approve Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for 2015-2016
Asphalt Materials
MEETING DATE: April 1, 2015
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve specifications and authorize advertisement for bids for
2015-2016 Asphalt Materials.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION The asphalt materials purchase is needed to carry out preventive
street maintenance and repairs. With the recent purchase of a new
paving machine, the City anticipates using more asphalt than
previous years.
The amount of asphalt requested (2,700 tons) for Fiscal Year 2015/16 will allow crews to perform localized
street repairs, thin overlays, and asphalt patching of large sidewalk offsets.
The specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The project estimate is $180,000. The
planned bid opening date is May 13, 2015.
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.
