CONSENT
ITEM #: 11
AGENDA ITEM: 2017 Mill and Overlay Project – Accept Bids and Award Contract
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator
Rob Weldon, Public Works Director
Amanda Groh, Project Engineer
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council accept bids and award a contract for the 2017
Mill and Overlay Project?
BACKGROUND: Each year the City implements preventive maintenance work on the public streets
consisting of minor reconstruction and subgrade correction, resurfacing, mill and overlays, crack sealing,
seal coating, and patching. The annual Preventive Street Maintenance Program employs a cost effective
approach for street repairs to extend the life expectancy of the pavements. Streets selected for the
Preventive Street Maintenance Program are determined by using a pavement management system where
each street pavement in the City is assigned a condition rating based on visual inspection of the pavement
distresses and observed deterioration. The number of streets selected each year is dependent upon the
amount of funding available for the program. Streets that have exceeded their life expectancy and can no
longer be effectively maintained are programed for reconstruction in the City’s Capital Improvement
Program.
For 2017, the following streets were identified for mill and overlay improvements:
• 31st Street from CSAH 6 (Stillwater Boulevard) to CSAH 14 (Stillwater Blvd.), including 400
feet of full depth patching.
• 43rd Street from Kirkwood Avenue to CSAH 17 (Lake Elmo Avenue).
A “mill & overlay” is a street maintenance technique that requires the removal of the top pavement layer
of the street by the grinding action of a large milling machine. After the top layer is removed, a new layer
of bituminous pavement is placed. Prior to the mill and overlay, localized areas with significant distress
and potential subgrade failure are corrected by completing a full depth patch (removal and replacement of
the entire aggregate base and pavement layers). The mill and overlay will remove the surface distresses,
improve ride quality, and will preserve the lower portion of the pavement. Cracks that extend the full
depth of the pavement are likely to reflect into the new pavement within two years of construction.
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Bids were received, publicly opened, and read aloud on Thursday,
July 6, 2017. A Tabulation of Bids and a letter of recommendation for the award of the Contract has been
prepared and attached. The City received 4 bids for this project, with Hardrives, Inc. providing the lowest
bid in the amount of $156,695.40.
The City Engineer is recommending that the City Council award the Contract to the lowest responsible
bidder, Hardrives, Inc. as outlined in the attached letter. The Project was advertised on QuestCDN.com
and in the Oakdale-Lake Elmo Review in accordance with the Minnesota Competitive Bidding
requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this resolution commits the City Council to enter into a construction
contract for the project with a construction contract amount of $156,695.40. The total estimated project
cost is $167,000.00 to be paid from the Street Maintenance fund.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council approve, as part of the Consent
Agenda, Resolution No. 2017-, thereby accepting bids and awarding a contract to Hardrives, Inc., in the
amount of $156,695.40 for the 2017 Mill and Overlay Project. If removed from the consent agenda, the
recommended motion for the action is as follows:
“Move to approve Resolution No. 2017–78, accepting bids and awarding a contract to Hardrives, Inc.,
in the amount of $156,695.40 for the 2017 Mill and Overlay Project.”
ATTACHMENTS:
