This purchase will be used for micro-surfacing services for the Public Works
Department. Micro-surfacing is a thin maintenance treatment used on pavement
surfaces to reduce water infiltration, provides skid resistance, and minimizes ageing,
weathering and oxidation. In most cases micro-surfacing will provide a performance life
of about five to ten years and the department has found it to be cost effective in
comparison to other preventive maintenance treatments.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an interlocal agreement with City of
North Richland Hills, Texas as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 271
and Texas Government Code, Chapter 791 .
The City of North Richland Hills, Texas solicited bids for which they awarded a contract
to Intermountain Slurry Seal, Inc. on May 11 , 2015. The Purchasing and Public Works
Department staff reviewed the contract for specification compliance and determined that
this contract would provide the best product, service and pricing for meeting the needs
of the City.
Staff recommends approval.
