II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. 2011 Overlav and Repair Program: Proiect Completion and Acceptance
Staff is seeking full Council approval for formal project acceptance and completion of the 2011 Overlay
Repair Progam which was contracted to Watson Asphalt Paving Company, Inc.
Repairs in the 2011 Program included portions of Andover Park West, Interurban Avenue South, East
Marginal Way South and a portion of the Fort Dent parking lot.Three change orders were issued during this
project for a total of $27,000 and under -runs were credited at $236,338.65 for a total contract amount of
$781,047.88. Under -runs were largely due to cost savings on the East Marginal Way South repair area. The
project came in under budget by almost $270,000. No retainage was held since the contractor used a
retainage bond.
Committee Members requested staff include a base map and construction summaries of the areas that were
repaired be included in the packet that goes to full Council. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD
TO FEBRUARY 21 CONSENT AGENDA.
III. SCATBd
Staff reported briefly on the Joint Subarea Transportation Board (SCATBd, Eastside Transportation Partnership,
and Seashore Transportation Forum) meeting on Friday, Februray 3, 2012.
Committee Chair Ekberg requested that the Committee and staff research the possibility of creating a
Transportation Benefit District for Tukwila (councilmatic action) for possible revenue opportunites for
transporation related issues.
Since the last SCATBd meeting was canceled, there were no minutes to review; however, staff distributed and
briefly discussed tomorrow's SCATBd agenda.
Also included in the agenda packet was a copy of the Governor's transportation priorities and PSRC's call for
projects. The Strander extension project is listed as one of PSRC's draft local transit priorities.
