Vice Mayor Candace Tennyson told the Camarillo City Council she reviewed the Ventura County civil grand jury report on prioritizing best practices for street maintenance and said the report specifically recognized Camarillo’s pavement condition index (PCI) as a best‑practice result.

Tennyson summarized the grand jury’s methodology and findings, saying the jury relied on the PCI metric (a 0–100 scale) and that Camarillo scored 82 while the next closest city among those reviewed scored 69. She said the grand jury “recommended that Camarillo consider a policy to maintain its streets in best practice conditions” and praised city staff, prior councils and public works personnel for maintaining high street quality.

Councilmembers responded by thanking public works staff and noting ongoing attention to pavement and transit needs. No policy action was taken at this meeting beyond the public acknowledgment; Tennyson said past and current councils have prioritized street maintenance over many years, and other councilmembers echoed appreciation for the work.

The council did not adopt a formal new maintenance policy during the meeting; Tennyson’s remarks and the grand jury’s recommendation can be considered for future policy discussion if council chooses to pursue an explicit formal policy.
