Why these streets?
Each year, City streets are evaluated using a pavement condition grading system that helps Public Works identify which roads are in the greatest need of repair. This objective process allows the City to prioritize paving projects where they will have the greatest impact.
For 2026, the City increased its annual paving budget to $1.6 million in recognition of several factors that accelerated pavement deterioration, including:
- Damage caused by the January winter storm
- Street cuts and pavement impacts resulting from the Paris Board of Public Utilities water rehabilitation project
- Normal wear and aging of City streets
These additional funds will allow the City to address more streets than in a typical paving season.
