From YouTube: 10/21/21 Lunch and Learn Street Maintenance
Description
The Office of Citizen Engagement/DataKC/311 hosts the third virtual Lunch and Learn on Thursday, October 21 with special guest Maggie Green, who discusses all things street maintenance, street resurfacing and repair, including tools and resources available to the community.
A
A
I
do
recognize
several
of
the
folks
on
the
call
or
my
colleagues,
so
thanks
so
much
for
joining
today
and
a
big
shout
out
to
kate
and
erica
with
datacasey
for
inviting
me
in
public
works
to
present
today
on
some
of
the
great
tools
that
we
have
available
to
you
all
and
to
residents,
and
I'm
very
excited
to
talk
about
kansas
city's
favorite
topic,
which
is
potholes
so
in
all
seriousness,
a
little
bit
about.
Let's
see
me
here,
I
am
the
yeah,
like
I
said,
media
relations
manager.
A
I
I
was
in
public
works
for
a
couple
of
years
as
the
public
information
officer.
So
I
did
get
a
lot
to
spend
a
lot
of
time.
Learning
about
programs
projects,
maintenance
activities
going
on
around
the
city,
so
very
excited
to
kind
of
give
you
a
behind-the-scenes.
Look
at
some
of
the
programs
and
tools
related
to
street
maintenance.
A
So
if
you
want
to
watch
this
again
or
share
this
with
another
colleague
or
resident
or
neighbor
we'd
love
to
have
you
share
this
information,
so
we'll
get
it
posted
within
the
next
few
days
on
our
youtube
channel,
and
then
I
would
say
two:
you
know
the
chat
function
which
I
think
kate
already
opened
it
up
there
and
said
something.
You
know
please
do
share
questions
or
comments
in
the
chat
and
we'll
we'll
get
to
those
at
the
end.
A
Okay,
so
today
I'm
gonna
kind
of
move
a
little
quickly
since
we
lost
a
little
bit
of
time.
Again:
apologies
for
the
technical
challenges,
but
we'll
go
over
just
some
department
background
about
public
works
to
provide
some
high-level
contacts,
spend
a
little
time
talking
about.
Potholes
show
you
the
pothole
map
that
we
have
talk,
show
you
all
how
to
request
street
maintenance
through
the
new,
my
kcmo
or
311
maintenance
system.
We'll
talk
a
lot
about
street
resurfacing,
which
is
one
of
my
favorite
favorite
programs.
A
I
will
let
you
know
a
little
bit
about
utility
coordination
and
our
new
efforts
around
what
has
been
a
pretty
hot
topic.
The
last
several
months,
we'll
show
you
the
street
closure
map
and
and
how
to
use
that
using
our
kcmo
parcel
viewer
map
and
then
again
end
with
some
q
a
as
long
as
we
have
time
for
that
at
the
end
on
the
left
side.
Here
is
just
sort
of
our
big
idea:
our
strategy
going
into
this
year.
A
We
we
spend,
we
have
some
changes
in
the
public
works
department.
We
have
a
new
director
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that.
In
a
few
minutes,
but
there's
been
a
lot
of
emphasis
on
street
maintenance
and
resurfacing
over
the
last
several
months,
we
know
that
this
is
the
top
priority
for
residents
with
one
of
the
lowest
satisfaction
rates.
So
a
lot
of
focus
has
been
put
around
sort
of
a
new
improved
strategy
for
street
maintenance.
This
this
portion
of
the
slide
kind
of
summarizes.
A
What
our
approach
is
utilizing
our
our
in-house
crews,
our
maintenance
crews,
also
contractor
crews.
Plus,
you
know
the
the
new
newly
revamped
street
resurfacing
program,
as
well
as
new
policies,
are
not
only
helping
us
to
kind
of
keep
up
with
the
demand
that
we
have
providing
those
basic
services,
but
also
improving
our
street
rating
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that
and
what
that
means,
and
also
looking
to
actually
save
taxpayer
dollars,
generate
additional
funds
to
put
back
into
street
maintenance.
A
So
quickly,
I
pulled
this
slide
from
another
presentation
that
I
often
give,
but
for
those
who
may
not
be
aware
of
what
exactly
public
works
does
and
doesn't
do
this
kind
of
breaks
it
down
at
a
very
general
level.
So
the
public
works
department
is
in
charge
of
roads,
bridges,
sidewalks
on
street
bike
facilities,
street
lights,
signs
traffic
signals.
A
A
So
we're
happy
to
bring
you
know
almost
200
additional
employees
to
the
public
works
department,
which
is
now
made
up
of
almost
500
a
little
over
500
employees.
A
couple
distinctions
public
works
does
not
do
street
sweeping
water
lines
or
sewer
lines.
That's
the
water
department,
of
course,
other
underground
utilities.
We
know
a
lot
of
people
work
on
our
streets,
but
not
all
of
the
time
is
that
actual
public
works
cruise.
So
we
know
that
we've
got
communications
utilities
like
at
t
and
spectrum.
A
Google
fiber
they're
working
in
the
roads,
a
lot
as
well
as
like
spire
gas
with
you
know,
gas
main
replacements
and
repairs,
as
well
as
the
water
company,
where
public
works
is
involved.
Is
that
anytime
anyone
works
in
the
street
or
underground
they
have
to
to
pull
a
permit,
and
so
those
permits
do
involve
public
works,
but
not
always
is
it
actual
public
works,
crews
doing
the
work,
so
just
just
a
a
little
distinction
there,
parking
enforcement.
A
lot
of
people
think
that
that
that
is
in
public
works.
A
At
this
point
in
time
it
is
not
there's
a
division
in
kansas
city
police
department,
a
traffic
division
that
does
parking
enforcement,
there's
conversations
underway
about
possibly
looking
for
opportunities
to
move
parking
enforcement.
But
but
at
this
point
in
time
that
is
not
something
that
it's
done
within
the
public
works
department.
A
Quickly
here
I
I
added
this
slide,
because
I
think
it's
important
to
the
street
maintenance
and
road
repair
conversation
when
we
think
about
everything
that
public
works
maintains.
We
have
a
lot
of
infrastructure
that
we're
in
charge
of,
and
you
know
one
of
the
big
numbers
here
is
six
thousand
lane
miles
and
that's
a
lot
of
road.
That's
a
lot
of
street!
That's
a
lot
of
pavement.
We
also
have
lots
of
sidewalk.
You
know,
I
think
we
could
have
a
separate
webinar
just
on
sidewalks
just
on
snow
removal.
A
Obviously,
today
we're
talking
about
street
maintenance
and
and
resurfacing,
but
again
this
this
piece
of
the
conversation
is
really
important.
When
we
start
to
think
about
how
much
budget
we
have
to
maintain
the
existing
infrastructure
that
we
have.
So
I
wanted
to
share
this
with
you
to
kind
of
just
kind
of
frame
frame.
The
conversation
a
little
bit.
A
A
As
I
mentioned,
solid
waste
is
now
in
public
works
and
then,
of
course,
we
have
a
transportation
and
engineering
site
as
well
and,
like
I
said
there
could
probably
be
a
separate
webinar
on
each
one
of
these
right,
but
this
does
encompass
a
lot
when
we
think
about
what's
going
on
and
what
we
would
call
the
public
right-of-way.
So
that
is,
you
know
our
street
sidewalks.
You
know
lots
of
things
going
on
that
involve
public
works.
A
Okay,
so
now
we're
kind
of
getting
into
the
actual
launch
and
learn
portion
of
this,
I'm
gonna
start
a
little
bit
with
potholes,
then
we'll
talk
about
resurfacing,
stuff
and
then
end
with
some
utility
coordination.
So
I
pulled
some
information
as
of
a
couple
days
ago,
and
I
think
this
is
just
kind
of
a
helpful
snapshot
in
time
on
what
what
our
crews
actually
deal
with
day
to
day.
A
A
I
think
the
the
main
thing
to
keep
in
mind
here
is
that
our
crews
fill
way
more
potholes
than
what's
just
reported
to
3-1-1,
and
by
that
you
know
I
wha
what
happens.
Is
there
may
be
one
pothole
that
someone
reported
to
311
on
a
street
our
crews
kind
of
structure
their
day?
They
structure
their
maintenance
list
based
on
those
3-1-1
reports,
but
then
they
may
see
five
other
potholes
on
that
section
of
street
and
they're
gonna
fill
those
while
they're
out
there.
A
A
A
We
actually
have
three
public
works
maintenance
districts
in
the
city,
so
we
have
one
that
that
works
up
in
the
northland
one,
that's
sort
of
central
region,
and
then
one
that's
south,
and
so
between
those
three
maintenance
districts.
We
have
about
60
people
who
are
dedicated
pothole
crews
in
the
winter
time.
You
know
every
obviously
everything
kind
of
switches
to
snow
operations
when
it
snows.
So
these
these
folks
are
doing
multiple
things,
but
their
primary
focus
when
it's
not
snow
operations
is
patching
potholes.
A
A
These
are
kind
of
handy
because
they
can
roll
behind
a
pickup
truck
and
kind
of
maneuver
in
more
narrow
streets
and
in
neighborhood
streets.
Sometimes
we
partner
with
contractor
crews.
So
when
we
think
about
the
heat
of
the
pothole
season,
which
is
typically
like
late
winter
early
spring,
sometimes
we
need
a
little
extra
help,
and
so
we
can
and
have
the
ability
to
call
on
some
contractors
to
help
us
with
patching.
We
have
a
little
over
a
million
dollars
available
for
pothole
patching
efforts
and
that's
kind
of
split
between
our
crews.
A
Something
else
that
I
think
is
really
really
cool
when
we
think
about
data
and
resources,
and
is
the
public
works
department,
is
really
committed
to
testing
out
things
and
using
innovative
technology
to
make
sure
that
we're
improving
our
processes
and
looking
for
efficiencies
in
in
our
programs
and
in
our
maintenance
activities.
So
something
that
we
started
testing
out
earlier
this
year
is
camera
technology
on
some
of
our
dump
trucks
and
trash
trucks.
And
what
it
does
is
you
can
see.
A
The
the
little
photo
here
is
on
the
front
of
a
trash
truck
while
they
were
out
on
a
trash
run.
This
camera
can
take
a
picture
of
you
know
the
landscape
here,
and
what
this
technology
is
able
to
do
is
looking
at
sort
of
the
surface
of
the
street
and
picking
up
any
cracks
or
potholes
or
or
any
discrepancies
in
the
pavement,
and
it
helps
us
create
faster
work,
orders
and
work
more
efficiently.
A
Yes,
okay,
perfect!
So
if
you
head
over
to
kcmo.gov
slash
potholes,
it
pulls
up
just
sort
of
a
basic
page
here.
What
what
I
think
is
cool.
What
we've
tried
to
build
in
here
is
an
actual
active
map.
That's
pulling
information
straight
from
the
311
service
request
system,
so
these
are
all
sort
of
live.
You
know
it
updates.
A
So
this
is
a
very
handy
tool
that
we've
built
in
this
is
a
sort
of
a
partnership
between
the
open
data
portal,
that
kind
of
aggregates
all
of
those
311
requests,
and
we
filtered
it
specifically
for
potholes,
because
we
know
that's
a
really
popular
thing
that
people
like
to
ask
us
about.
So
I'm
going
to
show
you
if
you
click
on
pothole
map
here
it's
really
just
sort
of
the
data
itself,
and
what
I
really
like
about
this
and
what's
useful
for
me,
is
you
can
export
this
data.
A
So
if
you
did
for
some
reason
want
to
look
to
see
how
many
open
requests
for
potholder
in
the
first
council
district,
you
can
kind
of
slice
and
dice
this
data
that
way,
which
is
super
handy
for
for
some
specific
needs.
So
again,
this
is
available
to
you
all
to
the
public
and
is
a
is
a
pretty
pretty
neat
resource
to
have
okay,
while
we're
here.
I
also
want
to
show
you
the
kcmo.gov
311..
A
We
recently
sort
of
revamped
and
got
a
new
app
to
submit
maintenance
requests.
It's
called
mycasimo,
so
I
would
say
if
you
do
not
have
that
app
on
your
phone.
Take
a
few
minutes
now,
while
we're
here
to
download
that
the
the
app
here
kcmo.gov
311
and
there's
links
for
iphone
android
to
download
that
new
app
it's.
It
is
a
critically
important
app
to
let
us
know
at
the
city
and
in
public
works
where
there
are
maintenance
issues
again.
A
I
think
I
mentioned
this
earlier,
but
we
we
rely
on
that
data
for
several
things,
one
of
which
is
our
maintenance,
crew
sort
of
creating
their
work
orders
for
the
day,
so
they
have
ipads
where
they
they
will
be
out
and
about
in
their
trucks
and
they'll
see
these
maintenance
requests
come
through
and
they're
kind
of
live.
You
know
tracking
this
information
through
these
through
these
requests,
so
very
critical
piece
here,
there's
a
few
ways
again.
I
think
the
the
quickest
way
is
to
download
the
app
on
your
phone.
A
You
can
also
use
it
online
on
a
web
and
then
for
folks
who
may
not
have
a
phone
or
access
you
can
to
internet.
You
can
actually
just
call
the
the
phone
line
and
someone
will
walk
you
through
it
and
help
you
enter
maintenance
requests,
I'll
kind
of
show
you
real,
quick.
What
it
looks
like
on
the
web
here.
A
So
basically
just
ask
you
some
information
here,
description
location,
you
can
actually
add
a
photo
of
the
actual
pothole
or
or
maintenance
issue
which
is
really
handy
to
to
have
our
a
cruise
have
an
actual
photo
of
it.
You
enter
your
information
and
then
hit
submit,
and
then
that
goes
into
our
work
order
system
so
again,
very,
very
great
resource
super
helpful
and
the
data
does
matter.
A
Okay,
we
talked
about
that
okay,
so
street
preservation.
This
isn't
it
really
is
street
resurfacing.
It's
an
annual
program
includes
a
few
activities.
Mill
and
overlay,
which
this
photo
here
is,
is
basically
milling
away,
taking
away
old
pavement,
usually
about
two
inches
and
then
overlaying
with
brand
new
asphalt.
New
pavement
over
the
top
micro
surfing
micro,
servicing
and
crack
sealing
are
all
activities
supported
by
street
preservation.
A
The
big
piece
here,
the
big
data
piece-
is
street
condition
information.
So
we
have.
We
know
how
healthy
each
street
segment
is
for
30
000
street
segments
in
kansas
city.
That's
how
many
sections
of
street
we
have
in
kansas
city.
This
information
is
collected
by
vehicles
that
have
like
fancy
lasers
on
them
that
go
drive
around
and
kind
of
get
pictures
with
lasers
of
the
pavement
surface
and
kind
of
underneath
it.
A
What
we
would
call
the
subgrade
of
the
pavement
to
help
us
give
sort
of
a
rating
for
how
healthy
that
particular
section
of
street
is
we're
actually
in
the
process
of
collecting
that
data
right
now
like
this
summer
and
fall
it's
a
three-year
data
cycle,
so
we're
getting
new
information
right
now.
That
will
be
very
important
to
inform
the
program
next
year,
so
that
street
condition
data
is
one
huge
piece
to
helping
us
know.
How
do
we
spend
our
money?
What
activity
do
we
do?
How
do
we
create
that
list?
A
We
also
look
at
things
like
traffic
counts,
utility
work,
other
projects
going
on
that
pothole
data.
I
just
talked
about
as
well
as
opportunities
for
things
like
complete
streets
and
and
making
roads
safer,
eliminating
lanes
to
to
slow
traffic
down
all
of
those
pieces
are
kind
of
factored
into
the
street
resurfacing
list,
essentially,
where
we
start
with
the
candidate
list
is
we're
looking
at
that
condition:
data
for
all
30
000
segments.
A
We
input
the
budget
number,
how
much
we
think
we're
going
to
have
and
that
kind
of
spits
out
for
us
a
list,
a
candidate
list,
a
lot
more
work
happens
before
we
have
a
final
list,
but
again
we're
looking
at
that
initial
list
and
kind
of
adding
things
like
you
know.
If
there's
a
gas
main
replacement
project
on
a
street,
we
don't
want
to
have
that
be
a
resurfacing
project
that
year
right.
A
A
Typically,
we
don't
put
new
asphalt
down
if
it's
lower
than
50
degrees
consistently.
So
we
are
kind
of
wrapping
up
this
work
for
the
season.
For
the
for
the
next
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks
and
and
again
we'll
resume,
and
sometimes
in
the
spring,
when
it
warms
up
a
little
bit
more,
we
do
well
I'm
talking
about
weather,
even
though
the
street
resurfacing
work
does
kind
of
take
a
break
for
the
season.
A
We
do
have
our
in-house
pothole
crews,
our
maintenance
crews
are
still
out
there
patching
potholes,
even
in
the
cold
weather
there
there's
temperature
threshold.
So
if
we
get
super
super
cold,
we
have
to
use
some
specific
materials,
some
specific
type
of
asphalt
to
patch
potholes.
It's
called
cold
mix,
but
you
know
those
crews
are
available
as
long
as
it's
not
snowing
when
they
have
to
plow
snow,
they
are
out
there
trying
to
patch
the
potholes,
even
through
the
winter.
A
Last
thing
on
here
is
when
we
think
about
like
the
overall
health
of
our
road
system.
We
we're
rating
at
about
a
47.
So
that's
on
a
hundred
point
scale
I'll
show
you
a
little
bit
more.
What
that
means
from
zero
to
100
we're
kind
of
right
in
the
middle
at
47,
which
is
fair
so
again
that
data
that
these
trucks
are
collecting
with
the
lasers
helps
us
categorize
all
of
our
streets
on
this
scale,
and
you
can
see
here
to
the
right
what
we
do.
A
What
we
recommend
for
the
activity
depends
on
how
good
or
how
bad
that
street
is
so
we're
not
going
to
necessarily,
you
know,
want
to
resurface
a
street,
that's
in
very
good
condition,
but
we
may
go
and
do
a
little
bit
of
sealing
on
it
on
the
edges
to
make
sure
that
it
doesn't
form
a
pothole.
So
this
information,
the
data
that
we
have
is,
is
critically
important
to
looking
at
what
we
do
at
what
time.
A
A
We
have
39
million
dollars
this
year
towards
the
street
resurfacing
program.
So
again,
as
I
said,
the
beginning,
this
topic
street
resurfacing.
Street
maintenance
has
been
such
a
big
high
priority
for
residents
and
for
for
council
for
the
mayor
for
a
new
city
manager
that
we
were
able
to
really
allocate
a
lot
more
resources
to
this
program
this
year
and
it's
showing
because
we're
also
this
allows
us
to
do
it.
80
more
resurfacing,
lane
miles
compared
to
last
year,
so
that
that's
huge,
you
know
I.
A
I
think
I
don't
want
to
spend
too
much
time
on
budget,
because
I'm
not
really
here
to
talk
about
that.
But
but
that
really
is
a
big
piece
of
this.
How
many
streets
we
can
resurface
absolutely
correlates
to
what
our
budget
is
year
to
year.
But
I
will
also
say
one
of
the
things
that
we're
working
on
is
making
sure
that
we
have
the
best
strategy
to
get
the
biggest
impact,
no
matter
how
much
money
we
have
and-
and
that's
that's
the
big
important
piece
there.
A
I
already
mentioned
we're
collecting
a
new
round
of
data
this
year,
so
that
street
condition
data
with
the
lasers
on
the
trucks
should
be
imp
imported
into
our
system.
I
think
at
the
end
of
this
year,
so
that
will
allow
us
to
have
huge
improvements
on
the
selection,
the
candidate
list
going
into
next
year.
We're
also
looking
to
continually
like,
add
and
improve.
A
This
is
huge
because
what
we
don't
really
do
for
the
street
preservation
program
is
resurface
streets
based
on
request,
so
for
your
pot
bowls
for,
like
a
tiny
little
bump
in
the
street.
Absolutely
those
can
be
reported
to
the
my
through
the
my
kc
mo
app
into
the
311
system
for
a
full
street
to
be
resurfaced.
It
kind
of
follows
this
process
that
I've
just
been
talking
about,
so
the
ability
to
have
dedicated
funding
to
really
address
some
of
the
council
district
needs
that
are
specific
to
our
council.
A
So
this
is
the
little
graphic
we
created
for
this
summer.
We
did,
like
I
said,
there's
been
a
lot
of
attention
to
this
program
this
year
and
we're
very
proud
of
what
we're
able
to
accomplish
here
again.
Obviously,
more
than
doubling
the
budget
has
helped
a
lot,
but
I
think
that
that
really
shows
the
city's
commitment
to
this
being
such
a
top
priority
for
residents
again.
A
A
This
is
probably
one
of
my
most
recommended
like
most
used
websites
that
I
provide
to
folks
a
lot
of
great
information,
kcmo.gov
street
preservation,
and
it
has
a
ton
of
info,
but
there's
two
things
specifically.
I
want
to
call
your
attention
to
so
one
of
them
is
the
weekly
resurfacing
schedule,
which
is
here
it's
hard
to
read
I'll
admit,
but
one
of
the
reasons.
Why
is
because
there's
so
many
streets
on
it?
A
But
if
you're
curious
about
work,
that's
happening
or
if
you
are
actually
seeing
equipment
out
and
you're
like
what
the
heck
is.
This,
for
you
know
all
of
the
streets
that
we're
working
on
week
to
week
are
listed
here.
The
reason
why
it's
a
weekly
schedule
is
because
we
are
working
with
contractor
crews,
and
so
we
are
basing
this
schedule
on
their
availability
to
mobilize
with
their
schedules
and
their
crews.
So
typically
we
post
this
and
update
this
week
to
week.
A
The
other
big
thing
on
here
that
I
want
to
call
your
attention
to
is
this
new
map.
This
map
is
pulling
from
where
we're
actually
working.
So
our
street
preservation
superintendent
updates
this
every
couple
of
days
based
on
the
work,
that's
happening,
so
I
actually
blew
that
move
that
up
here
a
little
bit.
So
this
is
basically
when
people
say
well
what's
on
your
list
this
year
here
here
it
is
this.
This
is
it
if
you
hover
over
to
the
legend
here,
you
can
see
different
lines
for
what's
been
overlaid.
A
What
is
planned
again,
that's
just
the
paving
the
the
new
asphalt
micro
surfacing
is
the
layer
on
top
crack
sealing.
Is
that
black
sort
of
spider
webby
stuff?
So
all
of
the
work
planned
for
this
year
and
our
progress
towards
it
is
all
tracked
in
this
map
here
that
is
available
to
you
all.
So
this
is
a
super
super
handy
resource
and,
and
this
view
of
this
map
is
brand
new.
This
year
we
had
previously
was
a
little
harder
to
get
to.
A
A
Okay,
almost
almost
done
here
sort
of
the
last
big
topic
is
talking
about
utility
coordination,
which
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
some
of
you
on
the
call
have
heard
a
little
bit
about
or
seen
some
drama
about
over
the
last
couple
of
months.
So
this
photo
here,
I
think,
really
demonstrates
it
also
tell
you
the
story,
so
this
photo
is
on
39th
street
west
39th
street.
A
You
know
utility
companies
cutting
in
to
make
you
know
an
underground
utility
repair.
It
wasn't
a
good
look.
It
wasn't
a
good
look
for
for
us
for
the
mayor,
so
this
kind
of
sparked
a
several
month
process
about
a
year.
I
think
of
public
works
kind
of
thinking
hard
about.
Okay,
what's
a
new
policy
that
we
can
work
on
for
street
excavations
and
utility
coordination,
so
we
recently
passed
an
ordinance
that
kind
of
outlined
and
updated
some
of
our
standards
around
cutting
into
our
streets.
A
The
the
policy
and
that
whole
ordinance
is,
is
designed
to
really
increase
our
coordination
with
utility
companies
to
really
minimize
this
from
happening.
It
also
is
looking
to
update
some
of
the
fees
to
make
sure
that
our
fees
are.
You
know
some
of
them
haven't
been
updated
in
about
15
or
20
years,
so
making
sure
that
we're
getting
the
fees
that
we
need
to
recoup
the
costs
there
for
cutting
industries
also
has
a
little
bit
about
street
plates.
But
the
whole
idea
here
is:
you
know,
anytime
someone
cuts
into
a
street.
A
It
really
is
sort
of
undermining
the
the
strength
of
that
street.
It's
compromising
the
structure
of
that
street.
If
you
drive
around,
you
can
probably
see
utility
cuts
where
potholes
have
formed
or
utility
cuts
where
it
has
settled,
and
it
wasn't
packed
well
enough,
and
so
basically,
this
policy
is
huge.
You
know
we're
just
kind
of
kicking
it
off,
but
we're
very
excited
about
some
of
the
outcomes
from
this
policy
which
I'll
talk
about
in
a
second.
A
You
know,
wreak
havoc
on
this
particular
street.
So
this
policy
again,
this
is
super
technical,
but
I'll
explain
some
of
the
some
of
the
impacts
here
in
one
more
slide.
But
what
what
this
is
looking
to
do
is
is
requiring
utility
companies.
You
know
kind
of
restricting
them
from
doing
any
cuts
on
a
newly
resurfaced
road,
which
is
huge.
Obviously,
if
there's
a
gas
main
break
or
water
main
break,
that's
an
emergency
situation
and
we've
got
you
know,
provisions
kind
of
built
into
the
policy
for
that.
A
A
You
know
full
lane
full
block
of
a
patch
so
that
it's
a
lot
more
smooth
of
a
ride.
It's
also
has
something
about
street
plates,
I'm
sure
you've
ridden
over
a
street
plate
before
a
lot
of
the
times.
They're
just
put
right
on
top
of
the
hole
that
they're
working
on
what
this
policy
requires
is
for
them
to
actually
embed
the
plate
and
make
it
level
with
the
street
so
that
it's
not
a
bump
to
go
over
the
street
plate,
but
it's
a
little
bit
smoother.
A
A
A
Some
of
these
patches
are
failing
and
sinking
and
causing
potholes
to
form,
and
then
our
pothole
crews
are
having
to
go
out
and
patch
them
so
hoping
that
this
will
will
help
preserve
the
lifespan
of
the
pavement
overall
and
then
again
with
all
of
this
kind
of
in
mind,
also
kind
of
rethinking
what
what
appropriate
you
know.
Permit
fees
are
and
stuff
like
that,
hoping
this
will
generate
some
additional
cost
savings
for
the
street
resurfacing
program.
A
This
photo
here
is
an
example
of
sort
of
a
full
lane,
full
block
patch
that
we're
looking
at
instead
of
what
what
typically
would
have
been
a
patch
and
then
10
feet
and
then
another
patch
and
then
10
feet
in
another
patch.
So
this
photo
kind
of
encompasses.
I
mean
it's
still
a
patch
right,
but
at
the
same
time
it's
it's
a
lot
more
writable.
What
we
would
call
compared
to
previously.
A
A
Right
now-
and
I
know
it's
frustrating-
I
have
to
drive
and
bike
through
it
too,
but
I
think
I
try
to
frame
it
as
there's
just
so
much
improvement
and
progress
and
investment
in
our
infrastructure
and
when
I
frame
it
that
way,
it
doesn't
make
it
as
bad.
But,
needless
to
say,
you
know,
people
want
to
know
what's
going
on.
They
want
to
know
when
the
streets
going
to
be
closed
and
how
long
it's
going
to
take
and
what
work
is
happening.
So
I
think
it
was
about.
A
A
year
ago
we
made
a
layer
on
our
parcel
viewer
that
kind
of
shows
where
streets
are
closed
and
where,
where
work
is
happening,
so
it's
bear
with
me.
It's
a
little
bit
complicated
to
get
there,
but
I
am
going
to
walk
you
through
it,
and
I
mean
this
is
sort
of
the
first
version
of
it.
You
know,
I
think
we
hope
to
build
from
here
and
improve
improve
from
here,
but
you
know
this.
This
is
kind
of
where
we
where
we
started
as
a
basic
resource.
A
A
We
got
downtown
loop
here
and
if
you
haven't
used
partial
viewer
itself,
that
may
be
its
own
webinar,
because
it's
amazing,
there's
so
much
great
stuff
here,
head
over
to
projects
and
click
traffic
control
permits.
Okay.
Well,
what
is
that?
So?
A
traffic
control
permit
is
required
anytime.
Anyone
is
working
in
the
street
in
the
public
right-of-way,
so
these
are
pulling
from
our
compass
kc
online,
permitting
system
for
any
work
that
has
been
permitted.
So
you
can
kind
of
see
some
colors
popping
up
here.
The
teal
color
is
active.
A
So
from
looking
at
this
it
doesn't
you
can't
glean
a
lot
of
information
about
like
if
it's
a
full
closure
if
the
full
street
is
closed
or
if
it's
just
lanes
or
it's
just
construction,
but
what
you
can
get
from
this
map
is
that
there
is
some
sort
of
work,
there's
some
sort
of
lane
closure
or
some
sort
of
construction
happening
on
the
street.
So
again,
you
know,
I
think
our
goal
is
to
kind
of
make
this
a
little
bit
more
intuitive
for
folks.
A
Okay
quickly,
through,
I
think,
two
more
slides
and
then
we'll
open
it
up.
Typically,
you
know
how
we're
communicating
our
plan
sessions
like
these
honestly,
we
have
been
spreading
a
lot
of
words
through
news
releases.
We
do
like
to
have
the
media
come
out
to
do
demonstration
events.
This
photo
here
is
of
the
mayor
learning
how
to
use
a
crack
ceiling
machine
last
year,
and
so
you
know
oftentimes
we're
out.
You
know
kind
of
trying
to
draw
awareness
to
what
we're
doing
and
having
the
media
help
us.
A
A
A
You
know
the
staffing
the
equipment
contractor
help
with
with
street
resurfacing.
So
it's
so
it's
sort
of
a
maintenance
but
larger
repair
with
street
resurfacing,
with
that
better
policy
is
really
helping
us
to
kind
of
keep
up
with
these
basic
services
and
constantly
work
to
improve
and
and
really
you
know,
get
get
more
streets
resurfaced.
A
A
A
Thanks
for
the
comment
chris
appreciate
it,
while
you
all
are
thinking
of
questions
to
ask
me
I'll,
just
say
again
that
we
are
recording
this
session
so
we'll
put
that
on
a
city's
youtube
page
and
probably
send
out
a
tweet
or
something
like
that,
just
to
make
sure
more
folks
have
access
to
it.
Since
there
is
a
lot
of
great
tools
and
information.
A
Oh
snow
removal
yeah.
We
definitely
should
probably
circle
back
into
a
dedicated
snow
removal
session,
so
I'll
work
with
data
casein,
maybe
to
get
that
scheduled
before
we
really
enter
into
snow
season
so
priority
level
it's
so
we
have
two
different
pieces
of
our
snow
removal
program.
We've
got
an
arterial
arterial
or,
like
the
large
road.
We've
got
a
program
for
that
and
specific
routes
for
that,
usually
those
are
covered
by
our
really
big
trucks
or
big
orange
dump
trucks.
A
And
then
we've
got
a
section
of
the
program
that
is
for
residential
neighborhood
streets,
and
so
it's
it's
not
really.
A
I'd
have
to
get
my
slides
to
articulately
answer.
I
will
say
that
every
kc
mo
maintain
street
is
on
a
snow
plow
route.
It's
on
a
plow
route.
So
a
