The agenda is attached. <br /> <br />Our department has worked in cooperation with the Upper Great Plains <br />Transportation Institute in preparing a 5-year County Transportation Plan. <br />in order to assist us in this planning process, we would appreciate input <br />from the Road Advisory Committee.

Theretbre it may not be necessary <br />tbr committee members to rate the potential asphalt overlay projects on the <br />list. <br /> <br />When planning a program in the past, I've generally given 1st priority to <br />routine maintenance and asphalt overlay projects that preserve the <br />pavements. The length of time between initial construction and the need tbr <br />the first or subsequent overlays varies based on a variety of factors. For <br /> <br /> <br />
