<br />A roll call vote was performed: <br /> <br />Councilmember Musgrove aye <br />Councilmember Specht aye <br />Councilmember Riley aye <br />Councilmember Howell aye <br />Councilmember Woestehoff aye <br />Councilmember Heineman aye <br />Mayor Kuzma aye <br /> <br />Motion carried. <br />7.05: Adopt Resolution #22-201 Ordering Plans and Specifications for 167th Avenue <br />Reconstruction, Improvement Project #23-04 <br /> <br />City Engineer/Interim Public Works Director Westby reviewed the staff report and <br />recommendation to move this project, similarly to the last one, along quickly since these are big <br />projects. He stated that the estimated project cost is at $1,850,000 for the project that is a little over <br />a mile in length. He added that the estimated cost does not include increased bicycle and pedestrian <br />facilities, so if it were to be an offroad regions trail connection that would increase the cost. He <br />stated that this will be worked through during the final design process with Public Works. <br /> <br />Acting Mayor Riley mentioned that he receives more complaints about this road than any other <br />and he knows this needs to be done. <br /> <br />Councilmember Woestehoff asked how many days in the past year have been spent on patching <br />both 161st Avenue and 167th Avenue. He stated that he had heard that 161st Avenue took almost <br />a week to have the potholes filled. <br /> <br />City Engineer/Interim Public Works Director Westby stated that several weeks have been spent <br />patching these roads. With 167th Avenue in the queue for next year, not as much time has been <br />spent fixing the roads since a reconstruction is coming, so the focus has been on only the larger, <br />deeper potholes. He mentioned there was a major blowout a few weeks ago at one of the <br />intersections that required a large patch. He added that as the project goes on there will be a large <br />radius around the streets to get solid sections going into the neighborhoods. <br /> <br />Councilmember Howell thanked City Engineer/Interim Public Works Director Westby for his <br />work on the presentation and mentioned that she believes the public will be very happy with this <br />project. <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman thanked City Engineer/Interim Public Works Director Westby for the <br />presentation and stated that as a Ward 1 representative this is the biggest project that is being faced <br />and to get this finalized is huge and he is excited for it. <br /> <br />City Council / August 23, 2022 <br />Page 13 of 16 <br /> <br /> <br />
