In January of ‘07 City Council passed the Street Surface Maintenance Program (SSMP) to provide the necessary funding to protect our City’s road system--a public asset valued at more than $65 million. 

In its first year the crews paved 37th Avenue from Lake Road to Wister, and 42nd Avenue from Harvey to Johnson Creek Boulevard. In the spring. Staff is preparing to complete the first year of scheduled projects in the spring, with the paving of Oak Street from Highway 224 to Monroe, and Washington Street from 99E to Oak Street. 

The SSMP is funded through a street maintenance fee, a local gas tax, and an electric utility privilege tax. The program is designed to improve the City’s street system over the next 10 years, and future projects include reconstructing King Road, Harrison Street, and Railroad Avenue.
