Award a contract to the lowest responsible bidder, Roy Allan Slurry Seal, Inc., in accordance <br />with the Base Bid and Alternate A, totaling $961,074.50, for construction of the Local Streets <br />Resurfacing using Tire Rubber Modified Slurry. <br />2. Approve the Cost Analysis for a total estimated project delivery cost of $1,300,000 (Exhibit 1). <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City has made a significant investment to rehabilitate local streets over the last ten years, and <br />therefore a top priority Is to maintain and protect that investment. The City's Pavement <br />Management Program effectively strategizes short and long -term maintenance schedules to <br />maximize performance of the entire street pavement network, including identifying preventative <br />maintenance improvements (Exhibit 2). <br />The application of a surface slurry seal to streets every seven to ten years will ensure a continued <br />high level of service. Historically, a conventional slurry seal has been used. Rubberized slurry <br />seals offer superior performance over conventional slurry by providing a more flexible surface that <br />resists cracking while also benefiting the environment by repurposing recycled tires. There are <br />several rubberized slurry products available, including Tire Rubber Modified Slurry Seal (TRMSS) <br />and Rubberized Emulsion Aggregate Slurry (REAS). Both provide similar wear and aesthetic <br />characteristics. In an effort to compare the performance of each of these products, two projects <br />are recommended for award on June 17, 2014. Both products are industry proven applications for <br />street maintenance. Based on the bids received, staff recommends award of TRMSS for this <br />contract. <br />
