The design currently incorporates an asphalt pavement. As the design work <br /> progressed, City staff and the engineer also began to look closely at the possibility of installing a <br /> brick pavement as part of the reconstruction work. Thorough reviews of the pavement and <br /> discussions with brick pavement manufacturers have determined that incorporating a brick <br /> pavement into the design is a real possibility. <br /> Staff is recommending that additional funding be provided to incorporate a brick pavement <br /> alternate into the West Main Street Improvements project plans. The intention is to receive bids <br /> for an asphalt pavement option and a brick pavement option. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There are no known objections to this resolution. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: Economic and Urban Development Department <br /> Blank, Wesselink, Cook and Associates, Inc. <br />
