Mayor Donchess
Yes.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
And | do agree with that. But just for clarity for myself, when we talk about the areas of the City in regards to
the paving, you have south, north, middle?
Mr. Hudson
Yes, that’s basically the division we have for this assessment task, yes.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
OK thank you.
Mayor Donchess
Alderwoman Klee?
Alderman Klee
Thank you Mr. Mayor. Mr. Hudson | do appreciate this because | know when | get calls from constituents
about, why isn’t my road being paved, it is in really bad condition or you are paving a road that’s not as bad. |
have been able to get ahold of Ms. Byers and get exactly what the assessment is of it and if it is a really bad
assessment it actually sometimes may not filter to the top because that’s going to need an entire paving and
you are going to be spending a little bit more energy to save a road sometimes.
So it has been very helpful to have these numbers that when | do talk to my constituents | can explain to them
the whole process and the whole system. It kind of also gives my constituents and the residents a feeling as to
when they will be paved next and so on. So | think this is a great system and | do appreciate you guys doing it
every year. We know every three years and for Alderman Harriott-Gathright | am the north. Ward 2.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
OK so | have a follow up. Since she brought that up.
Mayor Donchess
You're south.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
| am considered south, that area. Alright.
Alderman Klee
I’m the north.
Mayor Donchess
| think Alderwoman Lu had her hand up, I’m not sure.
