CONSENT AGENDA 06-08-05
There were no consent items.

PUBLIC WORKS 06-08-05
Keith Browning, Director of Public Works/County Engineer, appeared before the Board requesting authorization to solicit bids for hot-in-place recycling work on 3.8 miles of county routes during the 2005 contract maintenance season. Browning stated that road inspections conducted this spring identified three route segments for which hot-in-place recycling (HIR) could be used to rehabilitate deteriorating surfaces. Hot-in-place recycling is an on-site, in-place method that rehabilitates deteriorated bituminous pavements and thereby minimizes the use of new materials. This process may be performed as either a single pass (one phase) operation that monolithically recombines the restored pavement with virgin material, or as a two pass procedure, wherein the restored material is recompacted and the application of the new wearing surface then follows a prescribed interim period that separates the process into two distinct phases. It is designed to address surface distresses or deterioration on pavements that have a sound base.

The three locations for HIR work are:

Route 1061 from N 1300 Road to N 1200 Road
Route 1055 from N 450 to N 550 Road (Baldwin Hill)
Route 460 from US 59 Highway to E 1452 Road

After discussion, Jones made a motion to authorize the solicitation of bids for hot-in-place recycling work on 3.8 miles of county routes during the 2005 contract maintenance season. Motion was seconded by Johnson and carried unanimously.
