PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX (PCI) GOAL FOR CITY STREETS
5uPacsedzs sc n C�9•�(D
WHEREAS, a preventative maintenance strategy for streets is an organized, systematic process for
applying a series of preventative maintenance treatments to extend the serviceable life of the
pavement and avoid more costly corrective maintenance measures such as rehabilitation and
reconstruction; and
WHEREAS, a preventative maintenance approach establishes a pavement maintenance cycle that
uses a full range of treatments to protect the investment in the street infrastructure at relatively low
costs; and
WHEREAS, the City of Tigard's preventative maintenance strategy is to focus on optimal use of
limited dollars by keeping good streets in good to excellent condition and limiting the backlog of
streets requiring corrective maintenance; and
WHEREAS, the PCI (Pavement Condition Index) factors include pavement condition, pavement
distress, structural strength, and rideability and numerically measures the overall condition of City
streets with 0 being the worst and 100 being the best; and
WIEREAS, the target zone (Goal) for preventative maintenance is 70 or above; and
WHEREAS, the City's current average PCI is 68.1 and a decline in overall condition to 65 or lower
would eventually lead to inuch more costly overlay and reconstruction costs; and
WHEREAS, an average PCI between 70 and 75 would allow the City to implement the most cost-
effective range of treatments for street maintenance.
NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Tigard City Council that:
SECTION 1: An average PCI of 70 to 75 is hereby established as the long-term Goal for
pavement condition on City streets.

intended to "hold die line" by maintains g an average PCI of 67.
