end
body
HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
On July 14, 2016, City Council passed a resolution authorizing a financing not to exceed $15 million to finance street rehabilitation, street reconstruction and intersection / traffic improvements.
Currently there are streets within the City (Deviller’s, Forte, Hillary, Clubbs and Intendencia) that are in need of rehabilitation or reconstruction to address severe storm water issues or which are not paved at all.
Prior to spending $15 million strictly on resurfacing, the overall need for rehabilitation and reconstruction should be explored in an effort to address many of these issues.
This moratorium will give the administration time to explore the issues and provide a plan as to how the issues will be addressed.
PRIOR ACTION:
July 14, 2016 - City Council passed a resolution authorizing a financing not to exceed $15 million to finance street rehabilitation, street reconstruction and intersection / traffic improvements.
