Summary

Public works staff presented photos and three estimates showing Centre Street requires more than a chip-seal; council agreed it likely makes sense to do a full repair and will decide at a later meeting.

Theron Perry presented photos of Centre Street’s deteriorating pavement and told council that, despite a grant for chip sealing, the city engineer and public works recommend a more substantial repair. Perry said he has three estimates and councilmembers agreed that spending to properly repair the street makes sense rather than applying a short-term chip-seal "band aid." Further discussion and a final decision were deferred to a future meeting.

The minutes do not include engineer analysis details, cost figures, or a chosen contractor; Perry indicated options exist and that staff will bring a recommendation back to council.
