FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> Staff recommends $28,600 be transferred from the 2017/18 Annual Slurry Seal of <br /> Various Streets Project (CIP No. 18504), and $13,630 from City Parking Lots — <br /> Resurfacing Project (CIP No. 17424) increasing the total 2016/17 Annual Slurry Seal of <br /> Various Streets Project (CIP No. 16504) budget from $535,000 to $577,230. A full <br /> breakdown of all project costs is shown in Attachment 1. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> The City of Pleasanton has an extensive pavement preservation program that annually <br /> resurfaces city streets. There are two main type of projects: an annual slurry seal <br /> project that installs an application of slurry seal used to rejuvenate pavement surfaces <br /> that are in good condition, extending the useful life, and an annual resurfacing project <br /> that reconstructs streets with a new layer of asphalt paving. <br /> On June 6, 2017, City Council awarded the Annual Slurry Seal of Various Streets <br /> Project (CIP No. 16504) to American Asphalt Repair & Resurfacing Company, Inc. for <br /> the low-bid amount of $484,575. The project consisted of applying slurry seal coating to <br /> approximately 2,607,000 square feet of pavement on sections of 85 city streets. As part <br /> of the award, City Council also authorized the Director of Engineering to approve and <br /> execute changes orders up to a not-to-exceed amount of $50,000 (the remaining project <br /> budget) for unforeseen conditions discovered during construction. <br /> The project began construction in the fall of 2017, but due to an early cold snap and rain <br /> causing poor conditions for slurry seal installation, the project went into winter <br /> suspension. Work resumed in June 2018 and continued through July. During the 2018 <br /> slurry placement, very hot weather occurred that caused the slurry seal material to <br /> remain soft and malleable longer than expected. This resulted in normal vehicle traffic <br /> causing excessive scarring and blemishing of the newly sealed street surfaces. <br /> Because the material stayed malleable for so long, the City and the contractor had <br /> numerous specialists review the streets and test the material. The results indicated that <br /> the material was within specification, and the specialists recommended providing more <br /> time for the material to cure. The material did finally cure when the weather cooled <br /> toward the fall of 2018, but the scarring of the street surface had already occurred. The <br /> scarring is aesthetically unpleasing, but does not change the serviceability of the slurry <br /> sealed surface. <br /> There have been four change orders to date executed on the project, with two more <br /> change orders anticipated. The four executed change orders total $35,554. The change <br /> orders increased the project cost for additional pavement striping required, adding <br /> Tanager Court to be sealed, adding Augustin Bernal Park parking lot to be sealed, and <br /> a specification allowed adjustment to contract price based upon oil price escalation. The <br /> two anticipated change orders remaining total $49,659. This includes $42,156 to install <br /> 324,275 square feet of Type I slurry in the Valley Trails area and Sandpiper Way, and <br /> $7,503 as a balancing change order for the actual measured constructed quantities <br /> compared to the estimated quantities used in the bid documents. These costs are also <br /> shown on Attachment 1 . <br /> There are also three other costs on the project that are shown on Attachment 1 . <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br />
