Council adopts 1 & 6 Year Street Plan, identifies immediate repair priorities
Summary
Pawnee City adopted its 1 & 6 Year Street Plan, prioritizing grant-funded projects (including an extension of G Street to Boston Street with 8" concrete) and acknowledging a problematic section west of 11th & J Streets to be addressed when funds permit.
Pawnee City Council opened a public hearing on the city's 1 & 6 Year Street Plan and adopted the plan on Sept. 8, focusing initial work on grant-funded projects and several high-maintenance local streets.
Foreman Spencer Cumley told the council the first three projects on the plan are covered by a street grant and outlined a proposed extension of G Street to Boston Street with an 8-inch concrete intersection to repair a broken area; Cumley said the city crew plans to handle that work. Council members raised concern about an area west of 11th & J Streets that has appeared on the plan for several years but remains unfinished; Cumley reported the crew had smoothed that spot with a skid loader earlier in the day but the north driving lane near the Habegger apartments is losing asphalt and needs new concrete or other repair when funds are available.
The public hearing opened at 7:17 p.m. and closed at 7:21 p.m., after which the council passed Resolution #17 adopting the 1 & 6 Year Street Plan. Council Member Donnie Fisher moved to open the hearing and later moved to adopt the plan; the roll-call vote to adopt was unanimous among those present.
Council members asked staff to consider using leftover street-project funds for the most deteriorated sections as available and directed Foreman Cumley to identify cost estimates for prioritized repairs.
