WHEREAS, as a pilot program June through September, 1991,
the Department of Public Works, Street Division, rented a
melter/applicator from Seal-All Marketing, Inc. for sealing
cracks on City streets as part of its routine maintenance
program; and

out to be a viable method both in terms of efficiency and
results, outperforming the method used in previous years; and
WHEREAS, with budget cuts in Public Works' programs (slurry
seal) , it is even more imperative that alternate methods of
street maintenance be sustained, and crack sealing is one of
these methods; and

in the rental selection -process based on demonstrations of the
units and information received from Caltrans and other counties

unit, and with Seal-All Marketing, Inc. agreeing to credit the
$7200 already spent on rentals toward the purchase price of a new
melter/applicator unit, it is staff ' s recommendation that the
City purchase ( from street maintenance funds) a 200-gallon
