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