SUBJECT: 2022 PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN REPORT AND PRESENTATION FISCAL
IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action SUMMARY:
The City utilized the services of engineering firm Bucknam Infrastructure Group, Inc. ("Bucknam") to conduct a physical inspection of all the City's streets and prepare the City's bi-annual 2022 Pavement Management Plan (PMP) and report. Residential streets were last inspected in 2016 and arterial streets were last inspected in 2020. The report summarizes the current condition of the City's roadway network, quantifies in today's dollars the City's maintenance backlog amount, provides several potential funding scenarios to maintain or improve the overall pavement condition, and serves as a tool to assist the City with planning and budgeting for current and future needed pavement repairs and maintenance.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following action:
Receive and file the 2022 Pavement Management Plan Report and Presentation.
DISCUSSION:
On November 6, 1990, voters in Orange County approved a 1A -cent sales tax for transportation improvements known as Measure M. This sales tax includes funding for streets and roads that is available to local agencies through both a formula distribution and a competitive process. On November 6, 2006, voters approved a renewal of Measure M to continue the 1/2 -cent sales tax for thirty years, beginning in 2011. One of the eligibility requirements included in Measure M2 specifies that each local jurisdiction must adopt and update a Pavement Management Plan every two years. All agencies must use a common format as part of the countywide pavement management effort conforming to American Society for Testing and Materials Standard D6433 as well as County approved PMP software for consistency in reporting pavement management conditions.
To be eligible to receive Measure M (M2) Local Fair Share and competitive funding through the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), each Orange County city must conduct a pavement condition evaluation of all its arterial streets every two (2) years, and its residential 3°a.

streets every six (6) years. The City last evaluated the condition of its residential streets in 2016 and its arterial streets in 2020. A report on the condition of the City's streets must be submitted to OCTA as part of the annual Measure M certification process. A separate agenda report for the annual certification is included on this evening's agenda.
To remain eligible for OCTA's Measure M funding, the City contracted with Bucknam to complete the bi-annual PMP update. Bucknam has prepared PMP updates for over 70 local agencies throughout Southern California and is certified by Orange County Transportation to prepare Pavement Management Plans compliant with the OCTA Countywide Pavement Management Guidelines. Bucknam conducted field surveys of all arterial and collector streets to collect, record, and analyze the pavement condition of the City's arterial roadway network. That data was entered into a pavement management database to generate a citywide pavement condition index. Since the residential streets were previously evaluated in 2016, the database applied a pavement deterioration curve to calculate the change in pavement condition of residential streets over the past two years.
The pavement management database also calculated in 2022 dollars the total dollar amount of the City's backlog of deferred pavement maintenance and repairs, as well as developed several annual pavement maintenance funding scenarios. Those funding scenarios illustrate the degree to which sufficient and sustainable street maintenance funding levels impact the overall citywide pavement condition. In addition, Bucknam developed a seven (7) year pavement capital improvement program that organizes the City's road network into annual project areas based upon pavement condition, the type of maintenance or repairs required (resurfacing, reconstruction, slurry seal) and is further organized into geographic locations to ensure contractor efficiencies.
The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is based on a score from 0 to 100, with 100 representing a brand-new street. The City's pavement condition index for 2022 is 76, which represents a five (5) point increase from 2020. This increase is directly attributable to the City Council's ongoing investment in and prioritization of street maintenance and rehabilitation improvements utilizing Measure U, SB1/RMRA Gas Tax funds and Measure M funding on numerous street improvement and maintenance projects completed over the past five (5) years. The 2022 Pavement Management Plan report is attached hereto and will be discussed in greater detail as part of a formal presentation to the City Council.
