COPPERAS COVE â In what would be a first for the city, the Copperas Cove City Council approved the commissioning of a pavement condition assessment for city streets to be completed by Houston-based firm, Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam Inc.
The study, approved at a Tuesday night council meeting, will cost the city $148,551, but the resulting plan could save taxpayer money, according to Public Works Director Scott Osburn.
In 2016, voters in Cove approved the allocation of one-eighth per one cent of sales tax revenue to be specifically for road construction projects. Voters re-approved the allocation in 2020.
âThe city has made significant progress in the areas of developing a street maintenance program,â Osburn said.
