All land use changes including plats, partitions, and subdivisions are routed from the <br /> Planning and Development Division to the PWM Surface Technical staff to ensure that <br /> the site has adequate existing infrastructure to support future development and/or that all <br /> provisions are in place to provide that infrastructure when needed. Wastewater and storm <br /> water connections to the city's existing infrastructure are subject to approval by the PWM <br /> Surface Technical staff through the building permit process. <br /> Attached are three flow charts showing the CIP and PEPI review process and the Waste <br /> Water Rehabilitation and Pavement Preservation Program project process showing PW <br /> Maintenance's role. <br /> • Planned replacement v. emergency replacement <br /> Maintenance Traffic Operations <br /> The majority of budget funding for PW Traffic Operations comes from the Road fund. In <br /> order to extend routine replacement programs current budgets are analyzed to stretch <br /> allocated funds and to realize future budget short falls. Traffic Operations currently <br /> maintains the following annual replacement programs: <br /> LED light replacement <br /> Thermo plastic street stripping <br /> Street signs replacement after reflective lives are exceeded <br /> Street lights — 4 year replacement cycle <br /> Raised Pavement Markers (RPM) each spring and fall <br /> Due to budget short falls in the Road fund for the past five years the replacement budget <br /> for the traffic controllers has not been funded. As technology progresses the necessity for <br /> upgrading to new controllers is becoming more apparent. <br /> Traffic Operations is looking into ways to extend current budgets and bridge short falls. <br /> One example is having the Pavement Preservation Projects constructed by PW <br /> Engineering pay for thermo plastic stripping with the street overlays. <br /> • <br /> 36 <br />
