Hearnsberger said that on Wednesday, his department worked on patching potholes on Maple Street. He said erosion had gotten worse on the street. He said a ditch will be dug out, lined with rock and concrete poured on top of it. After that is done, asphalt can be laid on the street.

Reep said the committee needs to determine which streets it would recommend to be paved. Hearnsberger will also make recommendations on paving.

The committee will also look at raising costs of making cuts in streets.

The next committee meeting will be at 5 p.m. Feb. 21.
