<br />6. ðA-z., <br /> <br />more than 2,850 square feet of failing or damaged concrete sidewalk with rubberized <br />sidewalk. Rubberized sidewalks were installed at about 70 locations in 2005, which <br />amounted to approximately 4,000 square feet of rubber sidewalk. The rubber material <br />serves as a suitable walking surface; reduces future sidewalk maintenance costs, and <br />reduces the root pruning of adjacent trees. Each five square-foot sidewalk section utilizes <br />approximately 4.4 recycled tires. Four thousand square feet (4,000 sf) of rubber sidewalks <br />diverts about 3,500 used tires at a cost of approximately $33,000. <br /> <br />Alternative <br />Do not approve the applications for the grants. Staff intends to continue to use the rubber <br />materials in our projects whether the grant money is approved, or not. The awarding of the <br />grants will extend the money the City has budgeted for both roadway and sidewalk repairs. <br /> <br />Fiscal Impact <br />There are no fiscal impacts to the City for submitting the Application. Staff will be <br />submitting the two applications for Grant funding in the amount of up to $100,000 each. <br /> <br /> <br />J el atterson <br />munity Development Services Director <br /> <br />Chu Chang, P.E. <br />Manager, Engineerin <br /> <br />g£J-- <br /> <br />Ed Everett <br />City Manager <br /> <br /> <br />~ <br />~~S <br /> <br />Paul Willis, P.E.' <br />Associate Civil Engineer <br /> <br />Attachment <br />Exhibit A - Waste Reduction and Recycling Directive <br /> <br />JP/PW:ss <br />S/library/reports/lynch/Grant Applications_Tire Derived Products <br />
