HomeMy WebLinkAbout1/21/2004 - STAFF REPORTS (3) DATE: January 21, 2004 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Public Works/City Engineer 2003/2004 ANNUAL SLURRY SEAL RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve and adoptthe specifications, and authorize advertisement for construction bids for the 2003/2004 Annual Slurry Seal, City Project 03- 15. SUMMARY: Section 7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code requires that Council 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$208,000. BACKGROUND: The Public Works Department oversees the maintenance of the City's street system. Each year, the Department assembles a capital project to continue its Slurry Seal Program on various City streets. Last year, the Department identified those streets within Sections 14 and 19, as well as Vista Chino, east of Gene Autry Trail, as those streets requiring a slurry seal consistent with the Department's schedule of maintenance. Unfortunately, the City was unable to award the entire contact for the scheduled streets, and due to lack of sufficient funds, completed a slurry seal program only of those streets located within Section 19. This year, we are moving forward to "catch up" on last year's slurry seal program, which includes the streets within Section 14, as well as Vista Chino from Gene Autry Trial to the east City limits. Unfortunately, this year's capital improvement budget only allows for the Department to move forward with slurry sealing these streets which were scheduled last year, and not for any slurry sealing of additional streets which are due to be scheduled this year. This fact represents a challenge the Department continues to face each year, as the budget for street maintenance and improvement projects is limited to gas tax and Measure A revenue which is restrictive and decreasing in relation to rising costs to perform street maintenance and improvement projects. This Department has not yet suggested supplementing its project budget with general fund revenue, realizing the other programs and projects that require funding solely from the general fund. However, further discussion at an appropriate time should occur to discuss the Department's future abilities to fund a program to maintain the City's infrastructure only with the use of gas tax and Measure A revenue. The Department has coordinated with the planning staff from the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, and will not include work on those streets adjacent to the completed Casino Project. The slurry seal specifications have been prepared by Department staff, are ready for Council approval and the subsequent advertisement for construction bids. 3A 2003/2004 Annual Slurry Seal January 21, 2004 Page 2 Section 7.03.040 of the newly enacted 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$208,000. Funding for this project will be available through local Measure A revenue, in an account budgeted as part of the 2003/2004 capital improvement project, account 134-4498-50100 (Slurry Seal Program). This action is being brought before Council to be in compliance with the Procurement and Contracting Code. Following Council's approval of the plans and specifications, and authorization to advertise for construction bids, staff will schedule bid advertisements with a bid opening date of February 10, 2004.
