CONTRACT PERIOD - October 22, 2015 to October 21, 2018

The finance department has confirmed with the City of West Palm Beach and the contractor that we are able to piggyback this contract.  The Finance Department also has the complete City of West Palm Beach Contract on file.  The City of West Palm Beach’s competitive bid process satisfies the City of Boynton Beach’s competitive bid requirements.

Over the past several years, City staff and elected officials have received a growing number of complaints from the Village Royal on the Green Home Owners Association and residents regarding the pavement condition of NE 1^st Court from Gateway Blvd. to NE 26^th Ave.  As such, staff proposes to resurface this street.  The proposed contract with M&M Asphalt Maintenance Inc. is piggy backed upon the City of West Palm Beach General Roadway and Miscellaneous Construction Contract #16393.

NE 1^st Court was last micro surfaced in 2004.  Currently the micro-surface layer is thinning and revealing the asphalt beneath.  The exposed asphalt has begun to oxidize and show signs of water damage (i.e. ponding, which will eventually result in the formation of pot holes).

This project was planned and budgeted prior to the passage of the sales tax initiative.

Asphalt overlay will extend the pavement surface life by an additional 20 years, at which time the city should consider a micro-surface application.

Either defer all roadway maintenance to a future year (not recommended) or considering utilizing micro-surfacing in lieu of asphalt overlay.  Staff was unable to procure a micro-surfacing piggyback so selection of this option would delay the project.
