IV. LEVEE 37 STATUS UPDATE
At the September 22, 2015 Committee of the Whole meeting, the Village Board
disucssed the final report of the Levee 37 Flood Study. One of the outcomes of this
discussion included direction to further examine the viability of constructing
recommended pumping station and storm water collection system improvements. Staff
and representatives from engineering consultant Christopher B. Burke Engineering, LTD
will provide an update on the status of this work.
V. SIDEWALK PROGRAMS REPORT
The Village of Mount Prospect maintains almost 300 miles of sidewalk. These walks are
installed in public rights-of-way owned and/or maintained by the Village. Most sidewalks
were originally constructed as part of real estate development projects and became the
Village's responsibility when the projects were accepted by the Village Board. Staff will
provide an update on the current condition of sidewalks, maintenance programs, and the
regulatory environment impacting pedestrian facilities.
VI. STATE OF THE STREETS / RESURFACING PROGRAM UPDATE
In 2014, the Village Board, working in conjunction with the Finance Commission,
developed and implemented a revised funding mechanism for the Street Resurfacing
Program. The purpose of revised funding was to eliminate a backlog of projects and
return the pace of work to an activity level that supports the targeted goal of an average
20 -years life for Village streets.
Since 2014, 35.2 miles (26% of total street inventory) have been resurfaced.
Last winter, staff performed a pavement evaluation study to assess the current condition
of Village streets. Staff will present the findings of this report.
