Itasca accepts CMAP pavement‑management assistance; alleyway scans billed separately
Summary
The board approved a CMAP technical‑assistance agreement for a village pavement management plan (CMAP portion estimated at $41,009.22 with a $4,000 local contribution). Scanning 20 alleyways will be billed separately by APT for $4,750 if the village elects that scope.
Trustee Leahy told the board on Oct. 7 that the village will accept a technical‑assistance intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) to develop a predictive pavement‑management plan.
Staff explained CMAP uses roadway scanning and modeling to predict future pavement deterioration, allowing the village to prioritize treatments and estimate long‑term budgets. “They basically assess all of our roadways, and the models they use can predict future failures,” a CMAP‑related presenter said in the discussion.
Trustee Leahy outlined the cost structure discussed at the meeting: CMAP’s project estimate was cited as $41,009.22; CMAP requires a local contribution of $4,000; and separately APT will bill the village $4,750 to scan the village’s 20 alleyways. Staff said the alleyway scans are not part of the CMAP IGA and are optional; the board may approve the alleyway scope later because the alley scans would be billed directly by APT.
Board members discussed the value of re‑scanning every three to five years to improve modeling accuracy and to help decide whether to apply preventive treatments (crack filling, surface treatments) or full reconstruction. Staff noted alleyways typically serve few residences and that pavement management scoring helps compare relative needs between roads and alleyways.
The board approved accepting the CMAP IGA; the local contribution and any optional alleyway scanning will be addressed in subsequent administrative steps.
