BACKGROUND:
The scope of work involves the maintenance application of a Type II slurry seal over
designated streets. Since the membrane applications completely cover the roadway,
striping and pavement markings will also be performed. Staff developed the project
scope of work to correspond with the recommendations of the Pavement M.anagement
Master Plan adopteq by Council in September 2010. Street improvements were
identified as the City's highest priority unfunded need when the Local Sales Tax
measure was approved in 2006. Since then, the City has made significant progress in
addressing the worst streets in the City. The City has established a goal of improving
all streets to a satisfactory condition on a 7-year cycle.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
It is important to emphasize again the general pavement management strategy that the
City has been pursuing since the Local Sales Tax measure was approved. It includes
an effort to concurrently improve some of the worst streets each year, while also
providing maintenance to those streets that are in good condition. This sometimes
results in confusion by the public when they see streets improved, while there are
others in worse condition. However, since street reconstruction work is so expensive,
the City would fall further behind each year if all the funds were invested in those
projects. Under the current strategy, more str~ets are brought up to good condition
each year, while preventative maintenance is provided to those in good condition to
avoid more expensive treatments in the future.

ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
1. Approve staff's recommendations to award a construction contract to American
Asphalt South, Inc. for the 2014 Street Resurfacing Project;
2. Do not award a construction contract for the project; or
3. Provide direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The consistent application of slurry seals is part of a yearly maintenance program
essential to ensure the integrity of the City's roadway network. The program is
designed to apply maintenance treatments to every street in the City on an ongoing
seven year cycle. The recommendations maintain funding for the highest priority
projects and minimize deferring improvement of streets in the approved pavement
management program.
DISADVANTAGES:
There is a temporary inconvenience to the traveling public as vehicles are rerouted
when the surface treatments are applied.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 (c).
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS:
The agenda was posted at City Hall on Thursday, August 7, 2014. The agenda and
staff report was posted on the City's website on Friday, August 8, 2014. No public
comments were received as of the time of preparation of this report.
