• <br />Using the cost assumptions contained in the CarteGraph Criteria (Appendix D) and the Total <br />Maintenance Costs (Appendix E) and Annual Maintenance Costs data (Appendix F), the <br />proposed funding shown in Figure 5 for special maintenance and reconstruction activities will <br />allow the city to maintain an Overall Condition Index rating of 73 as the long term average <br />condition rating of its roadway system, comparable to the current overall condition. It is <br />recommended that the total maintenance amount be budgeted in accordance with the plan year. <br />In addition to these maintenance funds, any City funds necessary for reconstruction projects will <br />also need to be budgeted. The estimated annual reconstruction costs are based on the 2003 -2007 <br />Capital Improvements Program, supported by the CarteGraph program analysis (Figure 5). <br />This level of increased special maintenance and reconstruction funding will result in a significant <br />difference in the roadway conditions over the next 10 years in comparison to continuing the past <br />maintenance and reconstruction funding or providing no funding. This comparison of the <br />projected amount of mileage of roadways within each the condition category and the projected <br />Overall Condition Rating is shown in Figures 6 and 7. <br />This recommended maintenance program of spending $330,000 in maintenance and $1,176,000 <br />in reconstruction would improve the roadways to approximately 5% "problem category" <br />roadways while spending only $28 million over the next 10 -year time frame. As previously <br />stated, continuing the past funding levels over the next 10 years would require an estimated $39 <br />million in 2014 (Plan Year 10), to restore the overall system at the end of that time period to only <br />its current condition today. The recommended funding level would achieve an $11 million <br />savings while actually having better roadways at the same time. <br />The following items would be the next steps in this process: <br />Establish Pavement Management Policies <br />o Pavement Maintenance and Reconstruction Policies <br />o Pavement Maintenance and Reconstruction Financing Policies <br />
