Cottonwood and Carter Drive Slurry Seal Program
Frank as you know C.I.P. funds have been allocated for both
referenced projects. At the time of the review for these projects
and the associated recommendation the slurry would have been an
appropriate method of maintenance. Since the original
recommendation the time that has passed has further deteriorated
the pavements and the slurry operation wouldn't be the best plan of
action. Staff is proposing a 2" asphalt overlay on Carter Drive
which exceeds the CIP funded amount by $16,000.00 to bring the
total cost to $25,000.00 and staff proposes a 1" asphalt overlay on
Cottonwood. This exceeds CIP funding by approximately $18,00.00
which brings the total to $7,800.00. Both projects can be
coordinated with Dallas County Road & Bridge District 1 and are the
recommended approach for improvements.

using unallocated interest monies to off set the cost increase for
the recommended improvements.
Please advise what the process would be for Public Works to obtain
this funding.
