Staffreport
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the work for the Annual Street Sealing 2015-16 Project and authorize the City Manager to file the Notice of Completion, release the performance and payment bonds and release the maintenance bond upon successful completion of the one-year maintenance period.
BACKGROUND
Street sealing is an annual maintenance activity that prolongs the useful life of pavement. The treatments associated with this project include slurry sealing, asphalt rubber chip sealing, and micro-surfacing. These treatments involve the application of one or more layers of rock chips, crumb rubber chips produced by recycling used tires, and asphalt binders. The particular process is individually selected for each street based on the pavement condition.
The City was awarded a grant from CalRecycle in March 2016 for the use of crumb rubber chips in the rubberized chip seal process and will be reimbursed at a rate of $0.50 per square yard of roadway where that process was applied on this project. The City will be reimbursed $31,359.50 from the grant for this year's project.
Each year work is performed in one of the City's four maintenance areas. This year streets within maintenance area 1, in the northeast quadrant of San Leandro, were evaluated for work. Priority was given to streets with the lowest pavement condition index that had not deteriorated to the point that replacement was required. The project installed approximately 5.7 lane miles of slurry seal and approximately 6.1 lane miles of cape seal.
