The Revenue Sharing budget includes $150,000 <br />for street repair, material only. <br /> <br />The General Fund budget will be used for maintenance purposes, and could <br />include some reconstruction. The Capital Improvement Budget will be used <br />for reconstruction, and could include some new construction of unpaved streets. <br />Revenue sharing will be used for construction of unpaved streets, using force <br />account labor. <br /> <br />With $150,000 in Revenue Sharing, eight (8) unpaved streets can be constructed <br />this year. Per priority, determined by Council, these streets include Lemon <br />Lane, N.
