Update: Is There A Pothole In Your Future? "No"

---
Is there a pothole in your future? 

Oro Valley Town Engineer Craig Civalier and Development and Infrastructure Director Paul Keesler say "No."

Both met with John Musolf this week to discuss the Oro Valley 2012-13 pavement preservation budget.  They stated that the $1.2 million being spent each year is sufficient to maintain the quality of the Oro Valley Roads.  So, there should be no potholes in your future.  This is good news!

We wanted this meeting clarify a previous posting regarding pavement preservation funding needs.  We have minutes from a discussion prepared by the town four years ago. This discussion concluded that the town was underfunding its pavement needs at that time by significant amounts.  We were surmising that the findings of that discussion are still valid since the town had not addressed this supposed funding requirement.  We are not sure exactly why; but the findings of that discussion are no longer valid.

Councilman Mike Zinkin was kind enough to facilitate our meeting.
