Residents and city representatives have long complained about poor road conditions. Martin has acknowledged the problem, saying the city needs to spend at least $6 million a year on repairs but, before he began his first term in 2013, only half that amount was being spent. For the fiscal year that started July 1, Martin set aside $4 million, but he has a request before the Board of Representatives for an additional $1.6 million. If representatives approve his request when they meet Nov. 6, it will bring total spending on roads this year to $5.6 million, just shy of Martin’s annual goal.
