Statements
Senators Hertel, Ananich and Colbeck asked and were granted unanimous consent to make statements and moved that the statements be printed in the Journal.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Hertel’s statement is as follows:
The Hertel office family got a little bigger yesterday. Kathleen Farhat, my chief of staff, gave birth at McLaren Hospital at 1:30 to Brady Joseph Farhat—seven pounds and four ounces. I would hope that all of you would wish her well and keep her and her husband in your thoughts and prayers—mother is doing fine and baby is doing fine—but the Hertel office family is excited to be one bigger this morning.
Senator Ananich’s statement is as follows:
Obviously, last week we had a bit of a lively discussion about road funding, of which at the end of the day we all were in agreement about adding more resources to fix our crumbling roads. Many of you might have seen an MLive story yesterday as it relates to an American Society of Civil Engineers Michigan Section report about our infrastructure—a report which gave us a D+ for its infrastructure system, based on an analysis of 13 categories of the state’s infrastructure. When grading, the engineers behind the report considered eight criteria: capacity, condition, funding, future need, operation and maintenance, public safety, resilience, and innovation. When you dig down a little deeper, it gave our roads a D-.
Well when I was teaching, quite often you had students who you liked but maybe were having trouble. I’m assuming roads must have went in after school and did some extra-credit assignments because there’s no way our roads should not have received an F. If you look at some of the other sub-categories, I think it’s important to note drinking water is a D—I think myself and the 100,000 people in Flint would agree with that, if not worse—roads D-, I mentioned that before, our schools are D+, and stormwater is a D-.
I think these are the facts when it comes to our roads and our infrastructure. I think it should be noted in the public record and that’s why I’m doing this now. I will say this: if we legislators were in the 3rd grade and were handed a report card like this—this one right here; hopefully you’ve all read—we would be held back. The problem is nobody wants us to stick around with results like this. It’s a D-disgrace and it’s D-dangerous and it needs to change and it needs to change now.
Senator Colbeck’s statement is as follows:
I appreciate the fact that our previous speaker brought up the issue of road quality. I share that assessment. Frankly, anyone who is driving on the roads shares that assessment.
I want to be clear though, to all of our colleagues that are sitting here, it is not a function of the road funding as much as it is a function of the road quality. We need to be focused on building higher quality roads. I have identified at least two different mechanisms for doing exactly that. You pay a little bit more upfront, about maybe 15 percent, but the roads can last three to four times as long. We need to be focused on longer-life roads. It’s very simple to go off and focus on that but, instead, I think there are too many people in Lansing who still focus on roads as a jobs program.
The good news is that I was out in Oakland County the other day, and I actually saw some Patch Master trucks filling some potholes, and doing so in a way that fills the potholes in a reliable manner. Hats off to all of our colleagues out in Oakland County. There is a technique that uses either Patch Master, DuraPatcher, or Jetpatcher trucks that fix the roads or potholes in a way that those patches last 12 times longer than what you get in the traditional cold patch—or as I call it, throw-and-roll techniques. We need to encourage quality fixes. If you’re going to do short-term fixes like this, use the Patch Master, use DuraPatcher, or use Jetpatcher techniques, don’t use the stupid throw-and-roll. If you’re doing long-term stuff, we have to think about the formulation of our concrete right now, and focus on methods that actually promote longer-life roads.
We have inquiries into MDOT on all the different road projects or investigations that they have for longer-life roads, but every single time I have inserted something into our budget, it never seems to be captured as far as a long-term study. I have legislation, Senate Bill No. 210, that would help provide some transparency around this—who designed the roads, how long it was designed to last for, who built it, and who actually inspected it. We need that kind of transparency to push for higher road quality. Bottom line is, if you’re doing short-term patches, we need to focus on quality patches. If we’re doing long-term reconstruction, we need to focus on higher-quality reconstruction.
