City outlines FY26 roadway repaving plan; 7.04 miles targeted, $1.95 million budgeted
Summary
Public Works presented the FY26 resurfacing plan for 7.04 miles across six neighborhoods using mill‑and‑overlay and cape seal treatments; council heard schedule, contractor procurement and a November start target but took no formal action.
Public Works gave a detailed update on the FY26 roadway repaving program, identifying selected streets, treatment types and a projected schedule.
"I'm gonna start around November once we get everything scheduled," Michael Ortiz, streets and stormwater administrator, told council when asked about the timeline for contractor work.
Scope and methods: staff selected 5.4 miles for mill‑and‑overlay (structural asphalt) and 1.6 miles for cape seal/microseal (non‑structural preservation) for a total of 7.04 miles. Targeted mill‑and‑overlay segments include residential and higher‑use streets such as Keene Road; cape seal work is planned for Oak Hill Reserve and other neighborhood streets. Ortiz explained the selection methodology used 2021 pavement condition inventory, citizen requests and a field verification program.
Budget and procurement: the FY26 program presented a total estimated cost of $1,952,746.45 and a city budget allocation of $2,000,000, leaving a small contingency. The city will continue to use a competitively procured piggyback contract with Asphalt Paving Solutions (APS) as the primary contractor. Ortiz noted prior federal coronavirus funding had supplemented resurfacing in FY21–23.
Schedule and coordination: staff told council they expect to advertise and schedule the work for a November start depending on contractor timing; the public works director said projects will be reevaluated where other development or widening projects are anticipated (for example, Vic Road) to avoid rework.
Next steps: staff will finalize scheduling with the contractor, proceed with necessary notifications to residents and coordinate with utility or development schedules to avoid paving followed by immediate excavation.
