CC Regular Session 7.2. Meeting Date: 05/09/2023 By: Bruce Westby, Engineering/Public Works Information Title: Adopt Resolution #23-100 Accepting Quotes and Awarding Contract for Pavement Maintenance Project #23-15, 2023 Priority Pothole Patching Contracted Services. Purpose/Background: Purpose: Adopt Resolution #23-100 accepting quotes and awarding a contract for construction for Pavement Maintenance Project #23-15, 2023 Priority Pothole Patching Contracted Services. Background: Dozens of miles of City streets have significant numbers of potholes deeper than 2-inches and/or numerous areas where the upper 2-inches or less of pavement area missing, generally known as surface stripping. This is resulting in poor and unsafe conditions for drivers and pedestrians. The number of streets exhibiting these severe pavement distresses have grown significantly in recent years. In 2022, the Public Works department struggled to maintain all of the distressed pavement sections and in the process spent a large amount of time patching potholes, which forced them to neglect other core duties. In 2023, the number of streets with deep potholes and surface stripping have increased significantly such that Public Works staff are able to maintain very few of these distressed pavement sections. This is due in part to last winter's severe weather conditions, as well as insufficient proactive pavement maintenance over the life of the pavement. On April 25, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution #23-089 approving plans and specifications and authorizing advertisements for bids for Improvement Project #23-14, 2023 Critical Mill and Overlay Improvements, with the intent of temporarily repairing pavement sections in 21 of the most critical areas experiencing severe pavement distress. That same evening, the City Council directed the City Engineer to solicit quotes for contracted services to immediately patch as many of the highest priority potholes as possible and to present all quotes received to the City Council for consideration of awarding a contract for said services on May 9, 2023. Quotes were solicited from four (4) contractors to provide deep pothole patching services on 7.7 miles of City streets. The submittal deadline was 10 AM, May 5, 2023. A total of three (3) quotes were received and the following quotes were found to comply with the Request for Quotes.
