TO: Mayor and Town Council February 16, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 7-2021, authorizing submittal of application(s) for The
Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Rubberized
Pavement Grant Program and all CalRecycle Grants for which the Town of
Danville is eligible
BACKGROUND
The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), offers the Rubberized
Pavement Grant Program pursuant to Section 42872, 42872.1, and 42873 of the Public
Resources Code. The program provides opportunities to divert waste tires from landfill and
promote markets for recycled -content tire products. The purpose of the grant is to promote
markets for Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC) products with crumb rubber derived from
California -generated waste tires. The program is designed to encourage first time or limited
users of rubberized pavement in two project types - RAC Hot -Mix and Rubberized Chip
Seal.
DISCUSSION
There are 324 lane miles of road serviced by the Town of Danville. Each year, several of
them will be repaired and repaved through the ongoing Pavement Management Program.
With a budget of $3 million, the program has to make determinations as to which
streets are maintained in which year.
The Town of Danville is applying for a $250,000 grant to augment the Pavement
Management Program expense. Grant funds will be used for chip seal pavement material
and for applying a rubber cape seal surface treatment to various streets throughout the
Town. Rubber cape seal is a cost-effective preventative maintenance technique designed to
extend the life of existing pavements by installing new wearing surface, filling surface cracks
and voids, providing very smooth surface with an increased durability and uniform
appearance. A rubber cape seal treatment will extend pavement life by approximately seven
to ten years.
The Town has a number of unfunded or underfunded capital improvement projects in the
current Capital Improvement Program for which these funds could be appropriated. Use
of Per Capita funds for CIP projects will be evaluated based on need, project start dates,
upcoming grant opportunities and pending grant applications.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Posting of the meeting agenda serves as notice to the general public.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of $250,000 grant funding will augment the Pavement Management Program
expense.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 7-2021, authorizing submittal of application(s) for The Department of
Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Rubberized Pavement Grant Program and
all CalRecycle Grants for which the Town of Danville is eligible.
