Officials cite $35,000 per mile chip‑seal estimate as road plan discussed
Summary
Council members reviewed recent chip‑seal work and preliminary planning for up to three miles of sealing, citing an estimated cost of about $35,000 per mile and asking council to identify priorities.
Chair reported crews had completed chip‑seal work on Joanna Drive and returned to address a missed patch on Wesley Chapel, and she encouraged the council to provide the number of miles they plan to treat so staff can include that in the budget. "We already got an idea. It's 35,000 a mile," Chair said when discussing the cost estimate used to project road spending.
Members discussed following an existing road plan to avoid ad hoc decisions and agreed that providing a short list of priority road segments would make it easier for the council to act. Staff was directed to include 3 miles as a working estimate and to present costed options at the next meeting.
