Council approves asphalt overlay on Westland Road tied to stormwater reconstruction
Summary
Council authorized an asphalt overlay for the reconstructed portion of Westland Road and a 2-inch mill overlay for the adjoining segment toward Elm Street.
The Lebanon City Council approved an ordinance authorizing an asphalt overlay project on Westland Road that ties into an ongoing stormwater reconstruction. Staff said 580 feet of Westland Road is being reconstructed as part of the stormwater work and that the remaining stretch toward Elm Street — about 700 feet — will receive a two-inch mill-and-overlay when the stormwater project is completed.
Why it matters: Combining the overlay with stormwater reconstruction avoids duplicative pavement work and reduces future disruptions for residents on the route.
A city staff member told the council: "The 580 feet of Westland Road is being reconstructed with the stormwater project ... the remainder of that portion toward Elm Street, a little over 700 feet, have a 2 inch millimeter overlay." The council approved the ordinance on roll call; Council Bill 69-11 became Ordinance 71-53.
Council did not add additional conditions to the motion on record. Staff said they are available to answer technical questions and will proceed with necessary documents to complete the overlay once the stormwater contractor reaches the paving phase.
The ordinance was recorded on second reading with affirmative roll-call votes and is now authorized for implementation by the public works department.
