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. Cities will compete for approximately $3,020,583 to fund portions of projects up to a $250,000 maximum amount per project. 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 2007-08, and will seek grants for projects for the next five years. There is no local match required for this grant. The grant is a reimbursement of $5.00 per ton of rubberized asphalt, up to 50,000 tons per project. The grant funds would be paid to the City as a reimbursement, and the savings would be passed Adopted:'Weso- OR -)9 on to the following year's project. The City applied for and received the same grant for the Fiscal Year 2006-07 grant period. The Fiscal Year 2006-07 grant will be applied to the City's Fiscal Year 2006-07 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. ATTACHMENTS Resolution RESOLUTION NO.
