Council approves $75,000 pavement study and $20,000 Shadow Oaks engineering estimate

Borough of Slatington Council · July 13, 2026

Summary

Council approved Acela’s Option 2 pavement study not to exceed $75,000 as the best approach to assessing current and future roadwork, and separately approved a $20,000 estimate for engineering related to possible Shadow Oaks repaving.

Council voted to approve Acela’s Option 2 pavement study, with authorization not to exceed $75,000, after staff and the consultant described it as the most cost-effective approach to assessing current and future roadwork needs.

"Acela indicated that Option 2 is the best and most costeffective in determining current and future roadwork," the record states. Council also approved a separate $20,000 estimate from Acela for engineering work associated with possible repaving of Shadow Oaks.

Both motions were approved on roll call; councilors expressed that the chosen approach would better inform prioritization and budgeting for future pavement projects.
