Subject: APPROVAL OF PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATE (PS&E)

ASPHALT RUBBERIZED HOT MIX (ARHM) OVERLAY, CITY PROJECT
07-17
From: David H. Ready, City Manager
Initiated by: Public Works and Engineering Department
SUMMARY
The Public Works and Engineering Department schedules an asphalt rubberized hot
mix overlay (ARHM) of various City streets. Each year the City budgets funding to
overlay a few streets with an ARHM overlay that are too deteriorated to receiive the
slurry seal treatment. The construction documents (Plans, Specifications and Estimate)
are completed and, in accordance with Section 7.03.040 of the Procurement and
Contracting Cade the Council is required to approve and adopt plans, specifications and
working details, and authorize the bid request for all public projects in excess of
$100,000. Approval of this project will allow staff to proceed with this public project, with
an estimated cost of approximately $1,500,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Approve the plans, specifications, and working details for the 2007/2008 Annual
ARHM Overlay, City Project 07-17, and authorize staff to advertise and solicit
bids.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Public Works Department oversees the maintenance of the City's street system.
Each year, the Department assembles a capital project to continue its ARHM Overlay
Program on various City streets as needed. This year's overlay project, is scheduled to
include:
• Tachevah Drive, El Alameda, Tamarisk Road, and Amado Road (between Palm
Canyon Drive and Indian Canyon Drive)
• Belardo Road (between Ramon Road and Arenas Road)

Camino Real (between Mesquite Avenue and S. Riverside Drive)

• Farrell Drive (between Ramon Road and Tahquitz Canyon Way)
Baristo Road (between Sunrise Way and Farrell Drive)
• Via Escuela (between N. Palm Canyon Drive and Zanjero Road)
Provided rubberized asphalt prices do not exceed the engineer's estimate, we are
scheduling overlay of approximately 650,000 square feet of City streets this year.
The plans and specifications have been prepared by Department staff, are ready for
Council approval and the subsequent advertisement for construction bids. Section
7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code requires that for public projects in
excess of $100,000 Council approve and adopt the plans, specifications and working
details, and authorize staff to advertise for construction bids. The Engineer's Estimate
for this project is $1,500,000. Approval of the recommended action will allow staff to
proceed with bidding of this project, such that construction can occur during the
summer.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for this project is available in the following accounts: 133-4298-50225 and 133-
4498-50225.
