Title
Authorizing the Mayor to enter into contract(s) for crack sealing; authorizing the expenditure of $200,000 from the Street Construction Maintenance and Repair (SCM&R) Fund for the 2019 crack sealing program; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
Crack Sealing is a cost efficient pavement preventive maintenance technique that can greatly expand the service life of city streets. The City of Toledo has conducted minor Crack Sealing Programs in the past, averaging 81 lane miles a year, with the most recent program conducted in 2017. The Division of Streets, Bridges & Harbor, in cooperation with the Division of Engineering Services, is proposing to operate a spring and fall Crack Sealing Program to address deferred maintenance of city streets. This would allow for eligible streets to be crack sealed within a timely manner. The City of Toledo will contract out major arterial roads and some residential streets while Division of Streets, Bridges & Harbor crews will crack seal other residential and minor arterial streets. The Division of Streets, Bridges & Harbor has $200,000 in its existing 2019 operating budget, appropriated by Ordinance 26-19 from the SCM&R Fund for the 2019 Crack Sealing Program.
