Information

Subject

Approval of Recommended Roadway Repairs and Improvements List for FY 2025.

Background

Attached is a list of City of Brentwood maintained street segments recommended for repair and improvement in FY 2025. The list is mostly prepared using data from the Commission-approved contract with StreetScan, for video assessment of all City streets which was conducted in October 2021, with data provided to Public Works in January 2022. In addition, staff physically evaluates the top priorities each year to further refine the list. We consider pavement condition rating, traffic type, traffic volume, speed limit, current maintenance demands, drainage concerns, reports of failures, and any known plans for upcoming utility work that might impact these streets before preparing the recommended list.

The proposed FY 2025 budget for Roadway Repairs and Improvements is $2,800,000, which is composed of $900,000 from the General Fund and $1,900,000 from the State Street Aid Fund. The attached list of street segments includes both those planned for an asphalt rejuvenation sealant application and those planned for traditional resurfacing. The list represents the highest priorities at this time, except for some streets intentionally delayed until upcoming planned utility work has been completed. Additional consideration is given to grouping work areas and including multiple street segments into a grouping when possible. This minimizes resident and motorist frustration by not proposing different street segments in certain areas over multiple years. As work progresses through the year, staff will continually review annual project costs to determine what additional work can be added to the contract in order to optimize the use of available funds.

In addition to the full-width paving list, there will be many smaller patches and curb repairs added throughout the fiscal year. The list currently represents only about 94% of the available budget. The remaining 6% contingency is being retained to provide flexibility to address curb repairs, manhole/valve box adjustments, or failures like settlement, shoving, and pavement buckles. Additionally, the contingency helps to protect against any fluctuations in the TDOT bituminous cost index throughout the course of the year.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends the approval of the FY 2025 Paving List.
