Road Advisory Meeting November 12, 2003 Page 2 planning purposes, it would be reasonable to assume we should overlay each asphalt pavement about once every 15 years. If we average 24 miles of overlays each year tbr the next 5 years, we will be nearly on track with overlaying each road every 15 years. This will require about 53.000,000 per year. On the enclosed instructions sheet, we've illustrated anticipated revenues and expenditures tbr the next 5 years. If we continue to give priority to preserving the existing pavements prior to completing other types of projects, we should be able to do an adequate job of maintaining most of our existing pavements. However, very limited (about $400,000/year) funding will be available tbr other types of projects. With this in mind, one can conclude that very few projects other than asphalt overlays will be affordable without additional revenue sources. Committee members may also want to be aware of the 1993 Commission Policy 9.30. The policy specifies, among other things, that gravel surfaced roads will only be considered for County funded paving only if the current or projected traffic volume exceeds 400 vehicles per dav. kb/kb Enclosure J: Admm-Eng Commission (mTSp 2003 Colrmuss~on Cot'respondence Road Advisory memo for I I 17 03 Meetmg.doc
