Report: Veneta has top pavement condition in Oregon; staff recommends $1.8M six‑year plan
Summary
Consultant Joel Conder reported Veneta’s pavement condition index (PCI) at 85 — highest in Oregon — and recommended a six‑year $1.8 million plan (about $300,000/year) to maintain road quality.
A pavement management presentation to the Veneta City Council reported that the city’s pavement condition index (PCI) is 85, which the presenter said is the highest in Oregon; 94% of streets were described as in good condition and about 5% in fair or poor condition. Consultant Joel Conder presented budget scenarios showing that a recommended investment of $1.8 million over six years (roughly $300,000 annually) would maintain current pavement conditions, while insufficient funding would lead to deterioration.
Public Works Director Kyle Schauer introduced the presentation and Council discussed funding priorities as part of the capital planning process. Conder cautioned that delaying maintenance would increase long‑term rehabilitation costs.
