would result in time savings to develop and administer the program, as the schedule is typically a function of the <br />state required assessment process, and eliminate the City Charter counter -petition provision. Should any of the <br />individual projects contained with the 2012 SMP be counter -petitioned, we are prohibited from undertaking those <br />improvements for a period of one year. Due to the timing constraints outlined above we would not be able to add <br />another area into the 2012 program if one or more projects are defeated by counter -petition, thus reducing the <br />overall project and pushing out those needed maintenance improvements into subsequent years. Doing so only <br />exacerbates the current problem because it defers additional street segment maintenance needs into future years, <br />and results in the program falling farther behind. <br />Funding Source: <br />Preparation and implementation of the street maintenance program is primarily financed through the City's General <br />Fund and TIF #4. Depending on the scope of improvements contained within the final approved program, after <br />soliciting feedback from impacted residents and evaluating the various neighborhoods in the field, additional <br />funding options may be included in the program. The investigation and final funding package for the 2012 SMP <br />will be included in the feasibility study and discussed by the City Council at a public hearing. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />Staff is seeking direction from the Council on how best to proceed with the 2012 SMP and is recommending that <br />the 2012 Street Maintenance Program entail sealcoating only. <br />Committee Action: <br />Motion to direct Staff to move forward with the 2012 Street Maintenance Program by concentrating its efforts on <br />sealcoating projects only this year. <br />2011-12 City Maintenance Needs <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Brian Olson Brian Olson 02/15/2012 09:49 AM <br />Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 02/16/2012 02:31 PM <br />Form Started By: Tim Himmer Started On: 02/14/2012 09:53 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 02/16/2012 <br />
