City of Missoula, Montana Item to be Referred to City Council Committee Committee: PWC Item: Special State Projects FY 10 Russell Street chip seal and stripe from North Ave to Ronan Street RR crossing Date: August 5, 2009 Prepared by: Brian Hensel Initiated by: Brian Hensel Action Required: Approve and authorize the Mayor to sign an agreement with Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) for City of Missoula Street Maintenance Division to perform large scale paving projects on State Routes as described on the attached Appendix C (Addendum 1) and in accordance with our state route maintenance contract. Recommended Motion: The committee recommends the City Council authorize the Mayor to sign Appendix C (Addendum 1) with MDT in the amount of $41,787. Timeline: Referral to committee: August 10, 2009 Committee discussion: August 12, 2009 Background and Alternatives Explored: In the past City of Missoula and MDT have annually performed large scale street maintenance projects on State routes within City limits. These projects are permissible under our maintenance contract between MDT and the City. Financial Implications: These projects provide an opportunity for the City and MDT to benefit by improvements realized by a new street surface on busy routes within City limits. These special projects short-cut the complicated and protracted process normally associated with State contract work. MDT compensates the City for all work performed including labor, equipment costs, materials, and sub-contractors. Attachments: Appendix C (Addendum 1) FY 10
