ASPHALT CONCRETE GRANT PROGRAM
City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City's 2005/2006 Rubberized Asphalt Concrete
Grant application as part of the Annual Overlay and Slurry Seal Program; and direct staff to
submit the completed grant application to the California Integrated Waste Management Board.
BACKGROUND
The State of California is currently accepting applications to fund a portion of the construction of
capital projects that promote reducing the tire waste going into landfills for disposal and
eliminating the stockpiling of waste tires. The Rubberized Asphalt Concrete Grant Program is
administered through the California Integrated Waste Management Board. Statewide city projects
will compete for approximately $1,663,000.00 to fund portions of projects in $50,000.00
maximum increments.
This year's proposed project would resurface numerous streets through the City's Annual Overlay
and Slurry Seal Program. This project seeks grant funds for Fiscal Year 2005/2006. There is no
local match required for this grant. The grant is a reimbursement of $2.50 per ton of rubberized
asphalt, up to 20,000 tons per project. The grant funds would be paid to the City as a
reimbursement, and the savings would be passed on to the following year's project. The City
applied for and received the same grant for the Fiscal Year 2004/2005 grant period. The Fiscal
Year 2004/2005 grant will be applied to the City's Fiscal Year 2004/2005 Annual Overlay and
Slurry Seal Program.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no immediate fiscal impact from submitting the recommended grant application. In the
event that the City is successfully awarded the Rubberized Asphalt Concrete Grant, the amount
would be added to the current project in which the City would realize a savings and pass the
additional savings on to the next year's project. Funding for the Annual Overlay and Slurry Seal
Program has been approved by the City Council.
