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 Public Service Director to enter into a contract with Shelly and Sands, Inc. in an amount up to $2,698,364.18 for the 2008 Resurfacing, Project 3, 1633 Dr. A project and to pay construction inspection costs up to $269,836.42. This improvement consists of planing, asphalt overlay, concrete curb ramps, and such other work as may be necessary to complete the contract in accordance with the plans and specifications.

The estimated Notice to Proceed date is August 4, 2008. This project has been given 75 calendar days to complete construction.

48 ADA curb ramps will be constructed with this project. No sidewalks will be constructed.

15 streets are scheduled to be resurfaced under this project which include Watkins Road, Sancus Boulevard, Olentangy River Road at North Broadway and North Broadway at Olentangy River Road Intersection, and portions of Karl Road and Dublin Granville Road.

The contractor intends to utilize recycled asphalt concrete (R.A.P.) in accordance with the City of Columbus specifications for new asphalt concrete. The use of R.A.P. in asphalt concrete reduces the need for oil by reducing the amount of asphalt concrete liquid in the mix thus providing an environmental benefit by conserving raw materials and energy. The contractor also plans to use recycled Portland Cement Concrete on this project which preserves new aggregate materials and conserves solid waste landfills thus preserving the environment.

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 June 5, 2008 as follows...
