Adopt a Resolution approving the plans and specifications and authorizing the city clerk to advertise for bids for the 2017-18 Slurry Seal Project, Project No. 6001-17SS. Executive Summary This project is part of the city's ongoing Pavement Management Program. The 2017-18 Slurry Seal Project will perform maintenance activities on various streets throughout the city. Staff recommends approval of the project plans and specifications, and authorization to advertise for construction bids of the 2017-18 Slurry Seal Project, Project No. 6001-17SS. Discussion The city's Pavement Management Program (Program) includes a set of ongoing activities that assess roadway pavement conditions, maintain and improve city streets, and extend the life of the roadway system. Implementation of these maintenance activities are examples of the city's organizational values of stewardship and excellence. The Program relies on detailed computerized pavement condition analysis, as well as visual observation analysis by city staff. The 2017-18 Slurry Seal Project will extend the life of various streets by resurfacing the existing pavement with an asphaltic emulsion-aggregate slurry. The locations included in this project, as shown in Exhibit 2, were selected based on the age and existing condition of the roadway surface. The application of slurry seal protects the pavement surface from oxidation, raveling, and cracking. Prior to slurry sealing, pavement cracks will be sealed, and asphalt concrete patches will repair areas of deteriorated pavement. Fiscal Analysis There are sufficient funds available to complete the 2017-18 Slurry Seal Project, Project No. 6001-17SS. Funding for the Program consists of non-jurisdictional fees (generated from trash haulers), Gas Tax Funds, and TransNet-Local Funds available for drawdown from SAN DAG. Remaining Program funds will be used on future pavement rehabilitation and resurfacing projects.
