Explanation
This ordinance is to authorize the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department to enter into contract with M&D Blacktop for the Asphalt Improvements 2019.
Background: Each year, Recreation and Parks allocates a portion of the Capital Improvements budget to the maintenance of existing and potentially needed new installations of hard surfaces. This particular contract focuses on the removal and replacement of existing asphalt surfaces that are highly used by the public and include entry drives, parking lots, and walkways. By improving these surfaces, safe and easy access can be ensured to the parks and facilities, in particular those facilities which are utilized for voting purposes. Areas for improvement are determined by input from members of the Community as well as Recreation and Parks staff.
At this time, priorities and improvement locations are being determined by staff. UIRF expenditures have been requested and approved by the NEAC for the completion of a loop walk at Driving Park. Construction Management and Inspection will be facilitated by the Design and Construction Section (CRPD).
Bids were advertised to our prequalified vendors, in accordance with City Code Section 329, on May 7, 2019 and received by the Recreation and Parks Department on May 21, 2019. Proposals were received from the following companies:
