RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council approve the final plans and specifications and authorize the publication of a notice inviting bids for the Duquesne Avenue Slurry Seal and Striping Project, PS007.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Duquesne Avenue Slurry Seal and Striping Project will place Type 2 Rubberized Emulsion
Aggregate Slurry (REAS) on Duquesne Avenue from Culver Boulevard to Lucerne Avenue. The
purpose of the slurry is to replenish the oils in the pavement which have worn away and
prolong the structural integrity of the street. Additionally, the street will be restriped from
Lucerne Avenue to Washington Boulevard, adding bike lanes on each side of the street along
with green pavement at strategic locations. Bike “sharrows” are proposed to be installed at
several locations.
The design of the plans and preparation of the technical specifications was done by
Katz, Okitsu, and Associates, through the City Council approved on-call list for engineering
consultants.
FISCAL ANALYSIS
Approval of plans and specifications and authorizing publication of a Notice Inviting Bids does
not create a fiscal impact for the City. Should the City Council ultimately award a construction
contract, a fiscal analysis will be included in that staff report.
