The recent increase in oil prices has once again impacted asphalt costs, which increased an additional twenty-two percent (22%) to $36.50/ton. 2. The City's original intent was to have City forces rehabilitate and pave the CDBG alleys in conjunction with routine maintenance; paving equipment was purchased to facilitate said work.
