BACKGROUND
The Annual Overlay and Slurry Seal Program is an integral part of the City's pavement
management program and operates on a five- to seven-year cycle. Each year streets are studied to
identify the need for overlay or slurry. Streets are selected using the City Pavement Index Map,
street surveys, and input from the public.
The Annual Overlay and Slurry Seal Program improves various streets Citywide by resurfacing
and sealing surface cracks to enhance skid resistant properties and increase pavement life. This
results in a smoother ride for traffic, an enhanced appearance of the area, and extends the
economic life of the roadway.
Staff prepared a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the subject project. Included in the RFP was the
requirement to design the necessary improvements and evaluate streets in need of improvement.

proposals:
