Commission narrows traffic‑calming candidates and reviews residential-street rebuild inventory tied to 27-by-27 funding
Loading...
Summary
Staff presented a narrowed traffic-calming list and a residential-street rebuild inventory, noting funding constraints and council direction tied to the 27-by-27 mobility network. Staff cited roughly $3.8M to complete 27-by-27 commitments and overall package near $5M with adaptive projects in 2026.
City staff presented a narrowed list of traffic‑calming candidate projects and an inventory of residential streets in need of repair.
Staff said the council has advanced a nonbinding resolution allocating roughly $3.8 million toward completing the '27 by 27' network and about $1.5 million for additional construction projects, with an adaptive-project budget of $400k–$500k in 2026, totaling just over $5 million across the client list.
Commissioners discussed project‑title changes, PHB siting and the desire to include at least one project in a lower‑income census tract (Shiloh Hills, Peaceful Valley, Brown's Addition). Staff noted some entries on the narrowed list are new and lack detailed design; design files and descriptive documents will be distributed to commissioners.
Staff also presented a local street access inventory with pavement-condition-index (PCI) breakdowns: about 34% of streets at PCI 75–100 (good), 38% at 50–75, 25% at 25–50 (need grind & overlay), and 8% below 25 (rebuild candidates). Staff estimated a hypothetical grind-and-overlay package for the 25% in that range at roughly $257 million and rebuilds in the worst 3% of the network could range from $58M to $115M depending on scope.
What’s next: staff will accept commissioner input and conduct a final narrowing in November; council is scheduled to vote on the related resolution the week following the commission meeting.
