DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON THE MOST RECENT TRIENNIAL CITYWIDE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT SURVEY FOR BOTH STREETS AND ALLEYWAYS AND THE RECOMMENDED WORK PLAN FOR THE RESIDENTIAL STREET REHABILITATION AND CITYWIDE SLURRY SEAL CAPITAL PROJECT PROGRAMS

This is a decline from the citywide PCI of 72 that was cited in the survey completed in 2020. The report discusses the reasons for this decline including the incredible inflation of construction costs, labor and material supply chain disruptions that arose during and after COVID-19, and the uncharacteristically high rainfall that has been experienced the past two years.
