City Engineer Westby replied that these are the roads that were inherited and the roads are at or <br /> near their life expectancy. He stated that the City does about two times the number of overlays <br /> compared to reconstructs. He commented that is due to the age of the roads and lack of <br /> maintenance in the past. He explained that if there was additional maintenance done in the past, <br /> they could be doing move overlays but now the roads have deteriorated past that point and need to <br /> be reconstructed. <br /> Chairperson Riley referenced Ute Street, south of Alpine, and asked why that would not qualify <br /> as an overlay. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied it has a rating of three or four. <br /> Public Works Superintendent Riemer commented on the number of potholes and wearing of the <br /> road. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied that staff can move forward with the plan for 2023 as discussed, or <br /> staff could bring additional information back for the July meeting if desired. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Woestehoff, seconded by Councilmember Musgrove, to recommend <br /> City Council approval to temporarily increase Pavement Management Program using the available <br /> ARPA funds, directing staff to move forward with the planned 2023 CIP road projects and use the <br /> additional funds to provide the most benefit to roads possible. <br /> Further discussion: <br /> Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Riley, Councilmembers Woestehoff and Musgrove. <br /> Voting No: None. <br /> Chairperson Riley commented that in terms of planning for the years after, it would make sense to <br /> hear more information about bonding and the use of outside engineering consultants. <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff stated that it would also be helpful to have information on future <br /> impacts to taxpayers as well. <br /> Finance Director Lund noted that she would need to know the amount that would be bonded for in <br /> order to provide that information. <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff stated that he is comfortable with the plan for 2023 but would want <br /> more information following that because there are other costs, such as the Water Treatment Plant, <br /> that will have impacts. <br /> City Engineer Westby stated that if the decision is to add projects, that work needs to be done in <br /> the fall, so the discussion cannot be pushed too far down the road as there is not a funding source <br /> identified. <br /> Public Works Committee/June 21, 2022 <br /> Page 11 of 13 <br />
