Chair Fernandes inquired about the potential of an additional phase of reconstruction on
Camelback Road from 83rd Avenue to 67th Avenue. Mr. Gurrola replied that he will check on
where this section was in the plan and report back. Mr. Gurrola explained that if the section does
not get reconstructed in this plan, it will at least receive a Type II I slurry as an interim treatment
until it does get reconstructed.
Mr. Gurrola displayed an informational flyer on the Cold -In -Place Recycling Method and
explained the process and benefits of this green technology, which was recently used in the City

technology for asphalt. He relayed that this method can result in savings of 15% to 20% over
traditional reconstruction methods. Commissioner Lowry inquired about the amount of unusable
materials from the process. Mr. Gurrola stated that there is very minimal amount of unusable
material, which is hauled off site.
