SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. Recommended Action: Authorize the issuance of a purchase order in the amount of$150,570 to JV Sweeping Services of San Jose, CA for sweeping services required for the 1997 chip seal program. H. Financial Impact: Road funds in the amount of$150,570 are available for this planned activity. III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background: The placement of rock chip seal to resurface County roads is a long established routine maintenance practice. In order to assure complete coverage of asphalt applied to the old road surface, excess rock chips are distributed and must be removed by sweeping. It is not economical for the Public Works Department to own and operate the number of sweepers necessary to support the chip seal program. Sweeping service has historically been procured by purchase order.
