TITLE
The Mayor and City Council shall discuss and possibly take action on approving a contract with Crafco, Inc. for purchase of rubber crack seal material to be used in upcoming crack sealing of City streets. This contract, in an amount not to exceed $90,000, will be funded from ½ Cent County Road Tax Fund, Transportation, Street Projects-Capital, Street Maintenance (30044146-67750-34005), is based on Arizona Department of Transportation Contract Number ADSPO13-035060, and is in compliance with City of Maricopa Purchasing Code, Article IV, Section 3-223, “Cooperative Purchasing.” Discussion and Action.
AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION
Crack sealing is a sound, cost-effective preventive maintenance technique employed to extend the life of pavement. In an ongoing effort to reduce costs, staff has determined that purchasing the crack seal material separately from Crafco through a cooperative contract with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is more cost-effective than having the application contractor provide the materials.
The Poly Flex III material manufactured by Crafco is specially formulated to withstand the high temperatures of Arizona and is the same material used by the City of Chandler for the last 19 years. This product does not track on the streets, does not get carried onto driveways, is stable, and is very durable.
This item will be presented by Public Works Director/City Engineer William P. Fay.
