l��R{NG S ASSO(I1ITtS <br />Memo <br />TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members <br />FROM: Lee Elfering, City Engineer <br />DATE: September 20, 2012 <br />RE: Pioneer Park West Parking Lot Paving Repair <br />As outlined in our memo to the City Council on March 14, 2012 the recommended <br />improvement for the Pioneer Park west parking lot was to complete drop spread (thin <br />overlay) patching of the worst bituminous areas of the lot to extend it's life. Based on <br />that recommendation the City included $36,000 in this year's budget to have the work <br />completed. <br />In review of the parking lot there are several small areas of the lot that require drop <br />spread patching. However, there is one significant area, approximately 245 feet x 45 <br />feet, that also requires a drop spread or thin overlay. While the Public Works crews <br />could effectively complete a drop spread repair on the smaller areas the size of the <br />larger patch warrants utilizing a paving machine and that will require an outside <br />Contractor. The paving machine will allow for greater control of the patch thickness and <br />will provide a much smoother paved surface over this large of an area. Due to the fact <br />the large patch will require an outside Contractor we would recommend that we utilize <br />the paving machine and Contractor for all the lot patching. <br />Three quotes were obtained for the large paving repair described above and the low <br />quote of $7,570.00 was received from FPI Paving. Based on that pricing we would <br />anticipate that having the Contractor complete all the patching would be less than <br />$14,000.00. FPI Paving has completed several projects for the City over the last few <br />years and we consider them a responsible and responsive Contractor. We feel their <br />quote is competitive and would recommend acceptance of the quote and approval to <br />have the patch completed by them with a maximum expenditure of $14,000.00. If you <br />have any questions concerning this information, please call me at (763) 780 -0450. <br />10062 Flanders Court NE — Blaine, MN 55449 — Ph: (763) 780 -0450 Fax (763) 780 -0452 <br />Memo - 092012- Pioneer Park Lot Repair <br />
