The Public Works Department’s Street Division is backlogged with maintenance repairs to sidewalks, curbs and gutters, cross gutters, wheel chair ramps, and driveway approaches in various locations throughout the City.  In May 2021, City Council awarded a contract to CT&T Concrete Paving Inc., to furnish all labor, material, and equipment for on-call concrete construction work in an effort to reduce backlog and invest in the City’s overall infrastructure.  

This calendar year has seen price increases for commodities, equipment, and services that are essential for maintaining City streets and infrastructure. Specifically, unit price costs for concrete maintenance for this particular service contract have risen by 7% this year. Additionally, this contractual increase will cover work that will be done in residential streets as part of the City’s Five Year Capital Improvement Program.  

There is no impact to the General Fund. This increase will be covered by gas tax funding. 

It is recommended that the City Council:

• Approve Amendment No. 4 to the agreement with CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc., for providing on-call concrete repair and installation by  increasing the current annual contract amount from $660,000 to $900,000 and future option year contractual term amounts from $600,000 to $900,000; and

• Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4, and to execute option years, with minor modifications as needed on behalf of the City.
