Work has been completed on the crack sealing portion of a recent project to further the life of Wildomar streets. Instead of concentrating these efforts to a smaller portion of town and doing a quality job the city has chosen to spread the effort beyond its ability to watch over it.
Photographic evident shows numerous areas which call into question the preparation of cracks requiring sealing and the proper application of such materials.
For reference the blue tape is 60 inches long or 5 feet
That is a penny hiding after I cleaned out the dirt.
Per the contract this crack should have been routed.
Per the contract sealer is to be applied to a cleaned road for adhesion purposes.
Some cracks are more important than others.
At least the grass is dead. No herbicide treatment was called for in contract.
Also questionable is the decision to apply crack sealer only in an area of town that clearly needs a more extensive repair job, such as grinding and application of a leveling course after base repair.
This is in an area where crack sealing only is to be done.
Again some cracks are more important
Instructions to contractors during bidding process.
Its apparent that quality is not job one. This whole process is nothing more than dressing up a city in the emperor’s new clothes.
For those that have doubts about what the contract states, it (the contract) can be found in the City Council Agenda Packet for September 10, 2014 Agenda Item 3.3 starting on page 810 of 980.
