CC Work Session 2.5. Meeting Date: 07/19/2011 By: Brian Olson, Engineering/Public Works Title: Update on Resident Survey for Long Term Road Maintenance Background: During the strategic planning session in January, City Council identified an initiative to solve the long term road maintenance issue as one of the critical tasks to perform in 2011. The purpose of the case tonight is to provide an overview of the progress made on the 30 question citizen survey and gain consensus on moving forward. At the September 21, 2010 Council work session discussions focused on a franchise fee and public participation campaign to educate the residents of the imminent need for roadway improvements, and solicit their feedback on the potential scenarios that exist for a long term sustainable funding source. Information was presented in work session for completing a public participation program on January 18, 2011, and on January 25, 2011 the City Council provided a "scope of service" by approving the Himle Horner proposal and ultimately approving the 30 question survey on April 19, 2011. Attached to this case is the data from the 30 question survey along with a summary provided by Himle Horner analyzing the results. Himle Horner will be present at this meeting to discuss the results of the attached 30 question survey and to solicit comments from the City Council for the next steps. Recommendation: Based upon discussion Funding Source: No funding source has been identified for this action.
