Councilmember Musgrove referenced the road rating which helps to categorize the improvements <br /> needed and asked if the subgrade information could also be included to identify the streets that <br /> would be available for reclaim light. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied that geotechnical work would need to be done with soil borings to <br /> review the soil conditions. <br /> Chairperson Riley asked if the radar would provide that information. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied that only provides details on the bituminous and aggregate section <br /> depths but does not identify soil types. <br /> Chairperson Riley asked if engineering would have sufficient time to plan for improvements next <br /> year if the additional funding is approved now. <br /> City Engineer Westby commented that if staff can start moving on it right away, that should be <br /> possible. He commented that they would have a Civil Engineer working on plans full time after <br /> this construction season is done. He commented that Civil Engineer II Feriancek would also be <br /> working on plans. <br /> Civil Engineer II Feriancek reviewed the projects currently scheduled for the following year and <br /> stated that with the additional staff person assisting, they should be able to complete those plans. <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff asked if the intent would be to use the additional funds for <br /> reconstructs, or to focus on the reclaim light projects. <br /> Chairperson Riley commented that is part of the discussion. <br /> Community Development Director/Deputy City Admin Hagen commented that if the additional <br /> funding is used on roads, every project for 2023 would use that funding in order to ensure the funds <br /> are spent on time. <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff stated that his question was more of whether this is focused on getting <br /> the most miles of roads done. He asked if staff has some of the geotechnical data on about half <br /> the roads scheduled for reconstruction. <br /> City Engineer Westby did not believe that would be accurate. He noted that there may be data <br /> from previous projects or developments in that area. He stated that the next step for the 2023 <br /> projects was to award contracts for geotechnical and topographical surveys. <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff asked the cost to have geotechnical work done on all the roads <br /> proposed on the CIP for the next set of years. <br /> City Engineer Westby noted that there are some streets that have known issues and perhaps just a <br /> boring or two would be adequate to confirm that information. <br /> Public Works Committee/June 21, 2022 <br /> Page 9 of 13 <br />
