. . . Memorandum, TCAAP and Pavement Management Program Page Two February 16,2001 You may want to establish this as a priority for the City in 2001102, and attempt to hire a consultant to assist with the planning, and possibly consider making part of the Request for Proposals (RFP) the fact that the City has set aside only a certain amount of money for the planning process, and part of the ability for a firm to get the contraet would be for them to obtain additional funding to complete planning of the entire parcel. I don't know if this is an item for the Retreat agenda, as it could take up a great deal of the day, It may be something that you want to discuss and establish as a priority to provide direction to staff on establishment of time lines for an RFP, PMP Basically, the questions are the same as those raised regarding the TCAAP property, Those are: . Do you want to spend time at the Retreat on this issue? Is it one of your highest priorities for the year? If so, are you willing and able to make a commitment to having it regularly scheduled on a W orksession agenda, and attempting over the course of the year to make a decision on a document process for the management of the transportation infrastructure in the City? . . The discussion of the PMP has a simultaneous impact on the Stormwater Management Plan, and it's development, and will undoubtedly impaet our current Assessment Policy, You should take this into eonsideration in your deliberation regarding whieh direction this process should go. I believe we have determined that there will be no street improvement project this year, we should take this opportunity to work on it throughout the year, It is my hope that this will culminate in a public review process, and adoption of a plan, schedule and a process, Another idea for you to eonsider is the possibility of bringing someone in from outside the City, not an engineer or in the road construction business, to help us in the decision-making process with the development of a Pavement Management Plan, the coordination of the PMP with our Stormwater Management Plan, and all of the impending changes that may bring in our Assessment Policy, We would need to take an opportunity at each and every Worksession to set aside time - at least one hour - to meet with this individual, discuss the PMP aspects through a pre-detemlined time schedule, and resolve to work through the decision that is needed to bring about a resolution to a significant need in the City, Again, I will not be able to be in attendance at the February 20th Worksession due to a prior family eommitment, but will attempt to contact you prior to the meeting to get your thoughts and feedback, and will follow up with Terry Post from the meeting.
