FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: APPROVAL TO RENEW AN ANNUAL CONTRACT FOR PAVEMENT
LEVELING SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider the renewal of an annual contract for pavement
leveling services with Nortex Concrete Lift & Stabilization for the Public
Works Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Street Maintenance Capital Replacement Fund,
174-43301-415-090 for an annual estimated amount of $100,000.
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this contract is to establish fixed pricing for pavement
leveling services for the Public Works Department on an as -needed basis.
In specific instances where either concrete street panels or sections of
sidewalk have settled but are structurally sound, our contractor can inject
foam to raise the concrete back to its original grade. This process can be
50-70% less expensive than replacing the settled concrete.
The City of Grand Prairie, Texas solicited bids for pavement leveling
services from which they awarded a contract to Nortex Concrete Lift &
Stabilization on November 1, 2016.The Public Works Department and
Purchasing reviewed the contract for specification compliance and pricing
and determined that this contract would provide the best service and
pricing for meeting the needs of the City.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal
agreement with the City of Grand Prairie, Texas as allowed by Texas
Local Government Code, Section 271 and Texas Government Code,
Chapter 791. The contract is for an initial one-year period with three
optional, one-year renewals. If approved, this will be for the third renewal
available.
