FROM:Jamison Theis, Street Foreman
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
2022 Roadway Crack Seal Maintenance
Policy/Action Requested:

Approve a contract with Asphalt Surface Technologies Corporation in the amount of $145,000 for roadway crack sealing in 2022.   

Recommendation:
Authorize execution of the contract.
Discussion:

As part of the city's pavement maintenance program, sealing the cracks in the roadway pavement is an extremely important maintenance practice to help prevent and minimize the further degradation of the pavement cracks.

 

Typically, annual crack sealing is contracted out through the Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) work. The contractor hired through the JPA completed some work but has been issued a stop work order for performance issues; therefore, we have proceeded with obtaining quotes for the remaining crack sealing work. The attached map provides the roadway locations that will be crack sealed as part of this work. 

 

In accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 471.345 Uniform Municipal Contracting Law, quotes were solicited and three quotes were received as follows:

 

Quote Amounts:

Contractor   Amount
Asphalt Surface Technologies Corp. $210,000.00 
Allied Blacktop Company $217,500.00
Gopher State Sealcoat Inc. $348,600.00

 

The quotes came in higher than the $145,000 budgeted so the quantities will be lowered to fit within the budgeted amount - the contractor has agreed to these reduced quantities, accordingly.

 

Asphalt Surface Technologies Corp. from St. Cloud, Minnesota, provided the low quote in the amount of $210,000. Asphalt Surface Technologies Corp. has the capacity and experience for the project and is deemed a responsible bidder. They are prepared to begin the work in September and will complete the work this fall.
