Frequently Asked Questions

The annual street maintenance program is determined by the City Engineer based on the street ratings and the annual allocated budget. Rating the condition of all City-maintained streets is completed bi-annually. The following criteria determine a street's rating: extent of cracking, concrete condition, crack seal condition and pavement defects.

The major work items planned for your street are as follows: 

Asphalt Overlay:

• Approximately 3" of deteriorated asphalt will be milled and a new course of asphalt laid in its place.
• Spot curb and gutter repair will be completed.
• ADA curb ramps will be replaced when needed.
• Sidewalk maintenance will be preformed on these overlay streets (50% cost share applied). 

Rebuild:

• Complete removal and replacement of the roadway and curb.
• Removal and replacement of your driveway approach.
• Sidewalks, ADA curb ramps and driveway approaches will be completely rebuilt. 

The contract allows for a complete roadway closure of 15 business days. There will be additional intermittent interruptions to traffic for the work, but full closures should be limited to approximately 15 business days (weather dependent). 

The City will provide dumpsters at designated locations for each street rebuild project. 

During the street rebuild roadway closure, parking will be available on adjacent roadways in the area. We understand the inconvenience of hauling groceries, etc. long distances to your home. Wagons will be provided help transport heavy loads from your home to your vehicle and vice versa.

Door hangers will be provided throughout construction to provide residents with any pertinent notifications or updates regarding the roadway construction.  The contractor will also place no parking signs detailing the needs for off street parking restrictions.  You can also signup for electronic notifications through the City website.

General construction hours shall be ½ hour before sunrise to ½ hour after sunset Monday through Saturday. The contractor will not be allowed to perform work on City observed holidays.

The contractor is not permitted to close any rebuild streets before the second week of May  and they must be completed by mid-August, weather permitting.
