sealing linear street segments do not justify the cost. <br />The final modification Staff is proposing this year is to require the contractor to provide a third sweeping of all <br />sealcoated streets before striping. This will remove more loose rock before striping, and will potentially reduce one <br />round of sweeping that City Staff completes following the project. During the last couple of years, Staff has swept <br />sealcoated streets two to three times to remove loose rock upon receiving complaints from the public. <br />Notification: <br />No notifications were required for this case. <br />Observations/Alternatives: <br />Observations: <br />If Council approves plans and specifications and authorizes advertisements for bids, the bid advertisements will be <br />published in the Anoka Union Herald and in Finance and Commerce on January 26th and February 2nd. Bids will <br />then be opened publicly on February 20th, and Council will be asked to accept bids and award a contract for <br />construction on February 27th. <br />Alternatives: <br />Alternative #1 - Motion to adopt Resolution #18-027 approving plans and specifications and authorizing <br />advertisements for bids for 2018 Crackseal and Sealcoat Improvements, Improvement Project #18-04. <br />Alternative #2 - Motion to deny adoption of Resolution #18-027 at this time. <br />Funding Source: <br />Attached is a cost estimate for the proposed improvements. Estimated costs for the base bid plus three alternates <br />totals 623,169.69. This includes 14% indirect costs for administrative, engineering, legal and financing. <br />A total of $500,000 was budgeted for 2018 Crackseal and Sealcoat Improvements. <br />Staff anticipates that bid prices will be generally favorable and equivalent to 2017 project costs. Staff therefore used <br />average unit bid costs based on the 2017 crackseal and sealcoat project bids to estimate 2018 project costs. <br />No special assessments are proposed with this project. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends Alternative Action # 1. <br />The Public Works Committee reviewed the proposed 2018 Crackseal and Sealcoat Improvement project on January <br />16th and recommended City Council approval of plans and specifications. <br />Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #18-027 approving plans and specifications and authorizing advertisements for bids for <br />2018 Crackseal and Sealcoat Improvements, Improvement Project #18-04. <br />Resolution 18-027 <br />IP 18-04 Plans <br />IP 18-04 Est Proj Costs <br />Street Segment Summary <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />
