AGENDA ITEM 7C <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: James Studenski, City Engineer <br />COUNCIL MEETING DATE: April 8, 2002 <br />TOPIC: Resolution No. 02 — 26, Order Plans and Specifications - 2002 Sealcoat Project <br />VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority <br />BACKGROUND: <br />Each year the City maintains its streets by sealcoating. Sealcoating places a thin layer of oil and <br />rock on the street to enhance the surface. Candidate streets include new streets that received the <br />wear course 2 - 3 years ago and all other streets are done on a 5 - 7 year cycle. This year, <br />approximately 6.5 miles of streets will be sealcoated at an approximate cost of $114,000. <br />The 2002 budget includes $58,800 for sealcoating. The difference between the annual City <br />budget amount and the total bid amount would be funded from the City's Sealcoat fund as this <br />reflects the cost of the first time sealing of new roadways. Once ordered, the plans and <br />specifications could be completed in about two weeks, in time for consideration at the April 22, <br />2002, City Council meeting. The engineering budget for preparation of the plans and <br />specifications is $5,500. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Return to staff for further review. <br />2. Adopt Resolution Number 02 - 26, order the plans and specifications for the 2002 Sealcoat <br />Project. <br />3. Not adopt Resolution No. 02 — 26. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Option No. 2 - Staff recommends that Resolution Number 02 - 26 be adopted. <br />
