This contract will finish the seven street segments and prepare the project to be advertised for bid. Bid advertisement is anticipated for March /April 2012. As with past practice, the list of streets for repair was largely developed from the City's Pavement Management Program. Staff will return to Committee in 2012 with a construction bid. The final list of projects will depend on cost estimates, with a balance made between the cost of the project and its priority. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO NOVEMBER 14 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
