Approve the Cost Analysis for a total estimated project delivery cost of $1,145,951. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City has made a significant investment in rehabilitating arterial streets over the last ten years <br />and, therefore, maintaining and protecting that investment is a top priority. 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 improvement projects. <br />The application of a surface slurry seal to asphalt streets every seven to ten years ensures a <br />continued high level of service. Historically, a conventional slurry seal has been used. In contrast, <br />rubberized slurry seals offer superior performance over conventional slurry by providing a more <br />flexible surface that resists cracking, while also benefiting the environment by repurposing recycled <br />tires. There are several rubberized slurry products available, including tire rubber modified slurry <br />seal (TRMSS) and rubberized emulsion aggregate slurry (REAS). Both of these products are <br />industry proven applications for street maintenance. Additionally, both provide similar wear and <br />aesthetic characteristics. Based on the City's Pavement Management Program, staff has identified <br />a project area in which the TRMSS product will be used to rehabilitate arterial streets (Exhibit 1). <br />23A -1 <br />
