5 <br />The Public Works Department also assisted in the renovation of the <br />ICity and Police offices and completed landscaping, planting and <br />irrigation for the front of the municipal complex. This was not a <br />small undertaking and I would like to thank them for a job well done. <br />We can certainly be proud of our City Hall. <br />This year we initiated and completed the first repairs to the City <br />storm water collection system. This maintenance will continue into <br />1986. <br />1986 should be an equally busy year for the Public Works Department. <br />We have an ambitious roadway program of sealcoating 11.8 lane miles <br />and overlaying 7.5 lane miles. In addition to these programs, the <br />ICity will continue construction of our first MSA roadway on 4th Avenue, <br />and continue the process of bridge rehabilitation and right -of -way <br />purchase on 80th St. in accordance with County State Aid Highway desig- <br />nation. <br />The City expects to acquire two major pieces of equipment in 1986 - <br />the first being a dump /plow truck which will update the city fleet <br />with snow fighting capabilities. The second vehicle will be a mini <br />dump /plow truck used to expedite snow removal in cul -de -sacs and <br />dead end roads. Both vehicles are replacements for outdated equip- <br />ment presently in use. <br />IIn a forward thinking project, the City Code was updated with new <br />street construction standards that should eliminate the need for <br />any maintenance for new roads in their first five years. <br />
