FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2012 -13 ANNUAL SLURRY SEAL PROJECT IN THE AMOUNT OF $466,214 Recommendation: Approve SUMMARY As part of the City's Annual Asphalt and Concrete Program, the Public Works Services Department is preparing to slurry seal various residential streets within the City. It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Doug Martin Contracting, Inc., for the Fiscal Year 2012 -13 Annual Slurry Seal Project, in the amount of $466,214. DISCUSSION The Public Works Services Department is responsible for the maintenance and repair of approximately 147 miles of roadway pavement within the City. In 1999, as part of the Pavement Management Program, the condition of all City streets was assessed and a Slurry Seal Maintenance Program was established to help prolong the life of City streets through scheduled maintenance related to safety, drainage, and the effects of weather on the pavement surface. This program provides surface maintenance of all City streets on an eight year cycle. The Fiscal Year 2012 -13 Annual Slurry Seal Project includes the majority of work performed under the Annual Asphalt and Concrete Program. It will address approximately 17.3 miles of residential streets as shown on the attached map. This will include limited repair of failed pavement areas, replacement of curbs and gutters that have been damaged or lifted, weed killing, filling of cracks in the pavement surface, the application of an emulsified asphalt and sand coating commonly referred to as slurry, and re- striping of any street centerlines, stop bars, or other safety striping. This process protects the asphalt pavement surface from weather, restores skid resistance, and provides an aesthetic uplift to the street.
