Council approves $39,123 contract for street-scanning data; city keeps the data
Summary
The council approved a three-year contract with City Logix for street-scanning services ($39,123), with staff saying the data and imagery will belong to the city and help prioritize repairs and budgeting.
City street superintendent Carrie Huffford told the Fremont City Council on Jan. 13 that a proposed three-year agreement with City Logix will provide lidar-based street scans, PCI ratings and segment-level imagery to help prioritize maintenance, capital projects and budgeting.
Huffford said the vendor will dispatch crews to scan every city street, analyze the imagery with traffic engineers and deliver a database that categorizes damage by severity. "Once the data is completed, once we have it, we own it," she said when asked about data ownership, adding that the dataset would remain available to the city even if a different vendor is chosen in the future.
Council members asked whether the system could distinguish pavement substrate and age; Huffford said the tool can differentiate types of damage and provide an at-a-glance rating (red/yellow/green) down to 20-foot segments so staff can quickly locate imagery and support service calls.
Councilman Horner moved to approve Resolution 2026-00009 to enter a three-year contract with City Logix for $39,123; Councilwoman Ley seconded and the motion carried 7–0.
The contract is intended to give the city a data-driven baseline for pavement condition index (PCI) ratings and to improve planning and prioritization of maintenance and capital projects.
