Authorize the City of Shakopee's prescribed roadway maintenance work to be awarded as part of the 2019 JPA contract.

On February 18, 2014, the City of Shakopee entered a JPA for roadway maintenance services with a group of cities with the goal of streamlining contracts and receiving better pricing from contractors. The South Metro JPA cities include the following: Apple Valley, Bloomington, Burnsville, Eagan, Elko New Market, Farmington, Hastings, Lakeville, Mendota Heights, Prior Lake, Rosemount, Savage, Shakopee, South St. Paul, Waconia, and West St. Paul, along with Scott County, and the Townships of Empire, New Market, Sand Creek, and Spring Lake. The City of Burnsville administers the JPA. This is one of the largest JPAs of its type in the state and often includes some of the largest contracts in the state for this type of work.

As a member of the South Metro JPA for roadway maintenance services, the City of Shakopee provided a scope of work for roadway seal coating, crack sealing, and pavement marking for 2019, consistent with city's 2019 budgeting for this work.

With the City of Shakopee's approval of the city's portion of the prescribed work, the City of Burnsville will officially proceed with the JPA contract as awarded for the entirety of the 2019 South Metro JPA (see attached). The city's prescribed work includes the following: 

The bids are competitive and are of good value. All contractors are reputable roadway maintenance contractors and have successfully completed similar work and contracts previously.
