Page 4 -City Council 07-28-08 ITEMS REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR No items were removed. PUBLIC HEARING No hearings were scheduled. NEW BUSINESS None UNFINISHED BUSINESS The City Manager gave a brief explanation of the next two items: the Pavement Management Plan is an evaluation of the current conditions of all of the City streets and recommends a system of priorities based on the ranking of the streets. The goal would be to have all the streets in Seal Beach brought up to a higher standard; the Capital Improvement Program is used to coordinate all the upcoming projects to deal with them in the right order. ITEM °H" /PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN The Director of Public Works gave the staff report stating the pavement management program is a way of prioritizing the street system in the city but does not replace an informed decision maker, engineering evaluation of projects, or software used; the Plan is updated bi-annually in order to be eligible for Measure M funds; and staff was asked to bring back a list of street improvements for two areas (estimated costs for Old Town - $1.5 and College Park East - $560,000). Adopting the PMP does not appropriate the funding for the projects; this is done during the Council annual budget adoption or can be done by Council approving budget amendments; in 2008-2009 the budgeted amount is $350,000 for local street - in 2007 an additional $87,000 was added from the County of Orange (Prop 42). • The City Manager cautioned the Council that in order to bring all streets to a higher standard the City needs to continue to fund the Annual Pavement Maintenance Program as well as adding more funds to the list of streets needing repair. The Director of Public Works indicated that the costs listed in the PMP for the streets is estimated using rubberized asphalt but does not include the cost for replacing the curbs and gutters. The order of when a street is done is determined by when other capital improvement projects are scheduled to be done like storm drains and staff tries to group the streets to be done together in order to get a better contractor bid price. After Council deliberation the following actions were taken: Sloan moved, second by Antos to set a goal that the condition of all the streets in the City of Seal Beach be rated at a level no lower than "Good". AYES: Antos, Levitt, Miller, Shanks, Sloan NOES: None Motion carried By order of the Mayor a Pavement Management Sub-committee (Antos, Miller, and a city staff member) will meet to create a list of prioritized streets for Council approval. With no objection it was determined that unanticipated additional general fund revenues will be used for the pavement management program in Old Town and College Park East. • Page - 5 City Council 07-28-08 Levitt moved, second by Shanks, to adopt Resolution Number 5767 entitled "A • RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA ADOPTING THE 2008 PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN UPDATE:' AYES: Antos, Levitt, Shanks, Sloan NOES: Miller Motion carried ITEM "I" / RESOLUTION_NUMBER 5738 / 5-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN /RESOLUTION NUMBER 5763 /BUDGET AMENDMENT #09-01-03 The agenda staff report included the response to Council concerns on the Sand Replenishment Project with the Army Corp of Engineers, the McGaugh Swimming Pool Project, and the Storm Drain Master Plan.
