AGENDA REPORT
TO: Greg Copeland, City Manager
FROM: Charles Ahl, Public Works Director/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Streets Reconstruction Discussion — Work Shop
DATE: January 3, 2007
INTRODUCTION
The Council has requested some discussion and information on the current streets reconstruction program.
We will be sharing information through a power point presentation on our annual streets program; how we
make decisions on the analysis of each street segment every three years; how we determine which street
neighborhoods are added to the five-year program; how we determine whether a street is most
appropriately fully-reconstructed; partially-reconstructed; overlayed or seal-coated. Finally, we will be
providing information for discussion on our current approach to financing this program.
We recently received very positive information from the state auditor on the City's level of bonding and
investment. We still have a high level of backlog of local street projects where residents are complaining
that they are being delayed in being improved. We will provide information on how an expanded program
can be considered to advance some streets for 1-2 years.
RECOMMENDATION
No action will be taken as part of this discussion. This is an informational session.
