CITYWIDE ARHM OVERLAY PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council award contract to Granite Construction
Company, in the amount of$176,176.17 for Bid Schedules A through D inclusive,
for the Citywide ARHM Overlay Project, City Project 02-01.
SUMMARY:
Award of this contractwill install asphalt rubber hot mix(ARHM)overlays on Stevens
Road, from Indian Canyon Drive to its easterly end; Crossley Road, from Mesquite
Avenue to 34"Avenue; Calle Abronia, from Ramon Road to Camino Parocela; and
Calle Palo Fiero, from Sunny Dunes Road to North Riverside Drive.
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. In some cases,certain streets require additional
preventive maintenance than a normal slurry seal can provide. In those cases, an
overlay of asphalt rubber hot mix(ARHM)material is used to seal larger cracks and
overlay the entire street to provide for its extended life. As an incentive to using
ARHM overlays, the material includes rubber generated from scrap tires, allowing
the City to be environmentally-sensitive in the use of recycled materials.
The ARHM overlay plans have been designed by City staff, and on July 3, 2002,
Council approved and adopted the plans and specifications for this project, and
authorized advertisement for construction bids. The project consisted of four Bid
Schedules: Bid Schedule A represents ARHM overlay on Stevens Road; Bid
Schedule B represents ARHM overlay on Crossley Road; Bid Schedule C
represents the ARHM overlay on Calle Abronia; and Bid Schedule D represents the
ARHM overlay on Calle Palo Fierro.
On July 9 and 16,2002,the project was advertised for bids, and at 2:00 P.M.on July
26, 2002, the Department of Procurement and Contracting received bids from the
