<br />Task Force Recommendation: Reconstruct Streets with Concrete - Maintain Same Financing
<br />Rates
<br />The recommendation involves reconstructing new streets with concrete pavement, while
<br />maintaining the financing rates in place with the City's existing CIP. The average cost of
<br />concrete pavement reconstruction over bituminous pavement is 35%, meaning that the total
<br />Street CIP Budget would need to increase to $1,390,500 per year. The following funding
<br />breakdown is proposed:
<br />Taste Force Recommendation: Program Funding
<br />(2) 15,760 SY / Year x $8.05 / SY
<br />All costs and assessments increase by 35% across the board. Over a period of 14 years, the total
<br />Street CIP Budget would increase by $5,047,000. Special assessments would account for
<br />$1,766,450 of this amount. The City's General Fund would account for $3,280,550 of these
<br />costs. This option would require that the City's Assessment Policy be modified to allow for the
<br />reconstruction of existing concrete streets with concrete pavement.
<br />While the City's initial costs increase, the estimated maintenance costs decrease over the life of
<br />the pavement. The reduced maintenance cost for the City is estimated at $248,800 over 60
<br />years for every 3,700 feet of roadway. The total life cycle cost for the City would be
<br />$1,088,793, a decrease of $14,475 over the life of the pavement (1.3%).
