Summary: On May 24, 2018, one (1) bid was received for the rental of tandem axle dump trucks, with operators, to haul asphalt, millings and concrete breakout for the Street Maintenance Section of Public Works.
Trucking services are utilized for full depth asphalt base repair that is completed by the Street Maintenance Section of Public Works. Each year the full depth asphalt base repair is completed by city crews prior to the contracted Local & Collector Mill and Overlay Project. To keep the flow of millings and asphalt from the plant to the job site, additional trucks are necessary to minimize down time crews would spend waiting on asphalt material. This allows for increased productivity to efficiently complete the number of lane miles required by this type of construction each year.
Five-Star Trucking, LLC successfully performed this contract during the 2018 construction season. Staff recommends renewal of contract to Five Star Trucking.

$120,000 for 2019 to be paid from the Local and Collector Mill and Overlay Project funded by the Street Preservation Program.
