City Council Study Session Summary February 23, 2016 Page 3 of 4 The Task Force is asking what community wants and needs over next 20 — 25 years. Develop cost and see if the cost is something the community will bear. Any participation by Superior is just a discussion. Dialogue is always open to look for opportunities to work together. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton said the group will continue and check in with council. Mayor Muckle thanked the Task Force for their work. Discussion — Paving Issues Public Works Director Kurt Kowar said the Powerpoint in the packet attempts to answer paving questions. The goal is to take care of arterial and collectors first as they carry the most traffic. Conditions of survey overall network average is 63. Delamination is occurring on McCaslin in a very few spots. Kowar is keeping the contractor aware of it. Cracks are inherent. They are part of the lifecycle of a street. Concrete also cracks. There was broad discussion about actual conditions of streets versus what the numbers and metrics say. What is the long term sustainable pavement management program? Bring bad colors up to good and don't allow good streets to go off the cliff. Booster program is very expensive. City Manager Fleming said perhaps there should be a map to explain what streets will look like year by year to reflect deterioration and improved conditions with planned expenditures. $25m will be spent over the next 5 years. Council would like a tour of representative streets. Streets that score 40 — 70 perhaps need to be toured. City Manager's Report City Manager Malcolm Fleming reviewed the Advanced Agenda. He asked Council to remember the Budget retreat on June 7th. It will start at 4:00 pm or 4:30pm Identification of Future Agenda Items Council member Stolzmann would like to add FasTracks Rail update on the April 5th Council agenda. Adjourn 9:21 pm
