Forney outlines this year's street maintenance list; $1.25 million budget noted
Summary
Public works presented the annual street maintenance program and selection criteria (OCI pavement scores, traffic counts); the FY budget for the program was stated as approximately $1,250,000 and several road segments were named for repair or delay.
Public works staff briefed the Forney City Council on April 7 about the annual street maintenance program, explaining how the city prioritizes segments using an Overall Condition Index (OCI), road classification and traffic counts. "The number one factor is the OCI score," said Mr. Groves, listing targeted road segments and noting that some segments are deferred while concurrent infrastructure projects (drainage, sewer, waterline) are completed.
Staff said the city's budget for this year's street maintenance program was roughly $1,250,000. Council members asked about specific neighborhood needs, including West Shands, and Mr. Groves said some patching and crack sealing would occur this year with larger repairs planned for the next budget year.
