Street Maintenance
(continued)
FINANCIAL COMMENTS
Funding for Street Maintenance comes primarily from the City’s share of state gas taxes and transfers from the sewer
and water enterprises reflecting their responsibility for wear and tear on the streets. Since gas taxes are collected
based on gallons, and not on the price of gas the amount of gas tax revenue received by the City has remained more
or less flat, while the cost of street maintenance has increased over time due to inflation.
The latest street condition report completed in March 2016 indicated that the City’s weighted average pavement
condition index (PCI) is 67. Given the City’s current planned expenditures in the Pavement Rehabilitation Program
budget in the CIP, the PCI will fall below 60 in 2021 and deferred maintenance will exceed $41 million. In order to
maintain a PCI of 67, it will be necessary to increase the City’s annual capital expenditures to $3.9 million. While this
level of investment would stabilize the PCI over the next 5 years, it would still result in an increase in deferred
maintenance to $31 million by 2021. Annual expenditures of over $6 million annually would be required to begin to
address the City’s deferred maintenance backlog and would also result in a projected increase in the City’s PCI to 72 by
2021.
