Public-works update: concrete pours, resurfacing schedule and Tree City USA recognition
Summary
Public-works staff reported imminent concrete pours for a resurfacing project, described a multi-year street program, noted delays obtaining railroad permits for Fifth Street work, and announced the city earned Tree City USA recognition for the 24th year.
Public-works staff updated the council on street work, a near-term concrete pour tied to a resurfacing project, multi-year timing for larger street reconstruction, a delay obtaining railroad permits for Fifth Street, and a Tree City USA recognition.
Staff said crews will pour concrete in the next few days and hope to open the area by the end of the week in advance of resurfacing work on Butter Avenue (staff described the pour as preparatory and said the pavement will be allowed to cure before reopening to traffic). The larger street program was described as a multi-year undertaking; staff cautioned that work can take multiple seasons and that the city is working to coordinate with homeowners.
Staff also told councilors that Pacific Railroad has not yet issued permits needed to install storm sewer and other utilities under the railroad at Fifth Street, delaying that project's letting. Separately, staff announced the city was recognized as a Tree City USA for the 24th year. No formal votes were taken on the projects during the meeting.
