Explanation
Background: The Public Service Department, Transportation Division, routinely contracts for street resurfacing as a means of renewing and prolonging the life of streets and highways. Street resurfacing improves rideability and reduces street maintenance expenses. This legislation authorizes the City to enter into a contract in an amount up to $4,228,288.82 for the Resurfacing 2008 Project 2 project and to pay construction inspection costs up to $427,962.00. This improvement consists of planing, asphalt overlay, concrete curb ramps, speed humps, a traffic circle and such other work as may be necessary to complete the contract in accordance with the plans and specifications. About 164 square feet of incidental sidewalk will be added, and 631 curb ramps will be constructed. The estimated Notice to Proceed date is June 16, 2008. This project has been given 150 days to complete the construction.

The project was let by the Transportation Division and was advertised in the City Bulletin, Dodge Reports, and by the Builders Exchange. Four (4) bids were received (4 majority, 0 minority) and tabulated on May 1, 2008 as follows:

Shelly and Sands, Inc. (low) $4,228,288.82
Strawser Paving Company $4,506,583.03
The Shelly Company $4,726,642.00
Decker Construction Company $4,733,168.98

Award is to be made to Shelly and Sands, Inc. c.c. #31-4351261 (expiring 2/19/10), as the lowest, best, most responsive and most responsible bidder.

Emergency action is requested to authorize this contract at the earliest possible time so that construction may begin on or around June 16, 2008.

Fiscal Impact: Funding for this project is budgeted and available within the Street and Highway G.O. Bond Fund and available unencumbered cash within the Local Transportation Improvement Fund as a result of completed projects for the Transportation Division for this work.
