The Road Repair Plan

Friends,

Road Repair, depending on the weather, will begin in January.

Priority of this project is #1 along with the sewer.  Plans for the sewer are in the beginning stages and will continue into next year.

 In the last Board of Aldermen (BOA) these are the facts and plan the road committee presented:

1.  Their are three types of road repair that will take place.  The first will be Crack sealing which is necessary to keep the water from getting into the cracks and causing more damage.








2.  The second type of road repair is Seal coating.  Below are the recommendations to include the streets that will be receive first treatment.  Notice the cost estimate and what Bell County is willing to do.




3.  The third type of road repair is reconstruction.  Below is the plan:




Money may not be available for ribbon curbing, the third point in this slide.

Our City Administrator, Kim Faust, and the road committee chaired by Alderman Mike McDougal will be glad to answer your questions, 947-5060.

The BOA realizes that road repair will be an ongoing project forever.  Once all the roads are repaired, it will be time to start the process over.  Each year, money allocated in the budget will be used.

What is important to know:  (1)  There is a plan and it will begin immediately; (2) research is on-going on how to repair the roads the most cost effective yet quality way possible; (3)  the people who make up the Road Repair Committee are committed and will continue to work and plan for out future.
