1 �!2Et1R IN REVIEW Street Projects Completed Seal Coating: Annually,we seal coat about 6 miles of residential streets. In 2000, the streets of Orono Lake Addition, Orono Parkway,Joplin Street, Country Crossing I and Country Crossing II, and the Sandpiper Estates were seal coated. Crack filling: An important maintenance tool that we do in the year prior to our seal coat program. In 2000 we crack filled Riverview Heights,Heritage Landing,Mississippi Oaks, and west Main Street. Crack filling in October has helped to balance our seasonal work load and has been very successful. Bituminous Patches and Overlay: The Street Department paved about 200 ton of asphalt on 173rd Avenue,west of Fillmore Street as a stop gap measure before a complete reconstruction in 2001 or 2002. Several small patches were contracted out to Viking Blacktop. Surface Water Management: 2000 was a year of minimal rains so surface water management was not a big issue,but we do have two drainage improvements scheduled for 2001 in the short term street goals section. Gravel Roads: Each year we try to add Class 5 to about one mile of gravel roads. In 2000, the Class 5 was placed on 211th Avenue, 22151 Avenue,223rd Avenue, and 227th Avenue.
