RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning the Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Various Road Materials Pricing Agreement - Joy D. Blackmon, P.E., Public Works Department Director

That the Board authorize the issuance of a Purchase Order to Roads, Inc., of NWF, in an amount of $250,000, on Contract PD 10-11.028, "Various Road Materials Pricing Agreement Fiscal Year 2010-2011", to provide asphalt and tack to resurface open graded cold mix roads.

[Funding Source: Fund 352, "LOST III", Account 210107/56301, Project #09EN0388]

The County paved several miles of dirt roads with open graded cold mix over the last decade. These roads had a life expectancy of five to seven years, and in most cases have exceeded this period. Many of these roads are now in poor shape and have severe raveling of the driving surface. By allowing the Roads Division to resurface some of these roads before they fail, the County may potentially save thousands of dollars.

This Recommendation will allow the Roads Division of the Public Works Department to obtain asphalt and tack from Roads, Inc., of NWF, for use in resurfacing open graded cold mix roads.
