STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL
DATE: July 21, 2020
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM:
Linda Smith, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Delegation of Authority During Council Recess - Annual Street
Resurfacing Project (2020 Slurry Seal)
Prepared by: Michael Boitnott, Capital Improvement Program Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approving the plans and specifications and delegating
authority to the City Manager to award a contract for the Annual Street Resurfacing
Project (2020 Slurry Seal), CIP No. ST0117, during the City Council recess between
July 22, 2020 and August 17, 2020. The project will resurface multiple street segments
with a slurry seal that will prolong the life of the existing pavement surface. Actions
taken during the City Council recess will be reported to the City Council at the August
18, 2020 regularly scheduled meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Approving the Plans and Specifications and Delegating Authority
to the City Manager to Award a Contract for the Annual Street Resurfacing Project
(2020 Slurry Seal), CIP No. ST0117.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
As approved in the 2020-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), the total budget for
the Annual Street Resurfacing Project (2020 Slurry Seal) is $1,615,000, in addition to
any funds remaining from the prior year when the fiscal year books are closed.
Contract award is limited to the available funds within the CIP budget.
DESCRIPTION:
The Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes the Annual Street
Resurfacing project, CIP No. ST0117 (Attachment 2). This project provides for various
different types of pavement improvements from slurry seal to major rehabilitation of
roadways.
This year's project will include slurry seal of Amador Valley Boulevard, Regional Street,
and Wildwood Road, localized repair of failed asphalt concrete pavement, and
pavement delineation on street segments as shown on the Location Map (Attachment
Page 2 of 3
3). The total project includes approximately 700,000 square feet of slurry seal,
approximately 105,000 square feet of pavement “Hot Mix Asphalt” dig out repairs,
resurfacing approximately 30,000 square feet of bridge approaches, and adjustment of
35 utility manhole covers protruding from the road surface. Slurry seal is a preventative
maintenance technique used to prolong the life of asphalt concrete surfacing. As
streets begin to show wear and stress cracks, it is important to seal the cracks to keep
water from getting under the roadway pavement. Slurry consists of a sand/oil mixture
which seals cracks and provides a new uniform wearing surface.
The plans and specifications for the project were completed and contractors were
invited to submit bids by July 29, 2020, at which time bids received will be opened and
publicly read aloud via an online meeting tool. Bid results, references, and necessary
licenses will be reviewed by Staff. If the City Council delegates authority to award the
contract and if a responsive bid is received within the estimated construction cost of
$1.3 million to $1.5 million, Staff will then recommend that the City Manager award the
construction contract to the lowest responsive bidder. To facilitate the approval of
contract change orders and to avoid construction delay, it is requested th at the City
Manager be authorized to approve change orders up to the contingency amount of
$150,000.
Ideally, assuming no bid protests are received, a contract could be awarded on August
4, 2020. City Council delegation of authority will allow the proj ect to continue
progressing towards construction without having to wait until the City Council meeting of
August 18, 2020. Staff expects that the project would begin at the end of August 2020
and be completed by the end of November 2020.
Delegation of Authority
Dublin Municipal Code, Chapter 2.36 Contracts and Purchasing, requires that the City
Council approve any contracts for public projects that exceed $100,000. However,
Dublin Municipal Code, Section 2.04.190, states: “It shall be the duty of the Cit y
Manager to perform such other duties and exercise such other powers as may be
delegated from time to time by ordinance or other official action of the City Council.”
Therefore, Staff recommends that the City Council exercise its authority and approve
the resolution to delegate its approval in Sections 2.36.160 and 2.36.090 to the City
Manager, provided the bids come in within the budget already approved by the City
Council and that all other competitive bidding procedures are satisfied.
If the City Council delegates authority, a report summarizing actions that occurred
during the City Council recess will be included in the agenda for the August 18, 2020
City Council meeting.
This project is exempt under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA
Guidelines.

The Metropolitan Transportation Commission groups Pavement Condition Index (PCI) ratings into the following categories: 80-100 Very Good-Excellent; 70-79 Good, 60-69 Fair, 50-59 At Risk, 25-49 Poor, and 0-24 Failed. The Cityof Dublin is rated very good with a rolling three-year average PCI of 85.This annual Resurfacing Program is primarily funded by Alameda County Transportation Commission Measure B/BB funds, SB-1, and Gas Tax. This program protects the substantial investment the City has in the public street system.ANNUAL OPERATING IMPACT: NoneMANAGING DEPARTMENT: Public Works
