Summary

Public works recommended awarding a 2026 street-resurfacing contract to Barrett Paving Materials at $741,344.52 with a 10% contingency; staff said combined curb, sidewalk and resurfacing work remains about $216,136.79 under the 2026 budgeted amount of $1,463,000.

Public works staff recommended awarding the city's 2026 street resurfacing contract to Barrett Paving Materials for $741,344.52 and adding a 10% contingency to cover potential changes or extra work.

At the March study session, Mr. Borton said three bids were received for the resurfacing program, ranging from $741,344.52 to $853,208.10, and described the work as following the curb-and-sidewalk program. He said the combined budget for curb/sidewalk, trip-hazard removal and resurfacing in 2026 was $1,463,000 and that, after current estimates, the combined program would be about $216,136.79 under budget, which is why staff recommended a contingency to allow adding streets or other work.

Council did not take a formal vote in the study session transcript; Borton presented the recommendation to the council for formal action at a later meeting. The transcript lists the engineer's estimate as "$82,000," a figure that differs materially from the received bids; that discrepancy is noted here as reported in the transcript and should be verified with the city engineering office before publication.
