Hays city commissioners have a short agenda for Thursday's work session, with just two items.
Jessse Rohr, public works director, will present recommended bid awards for the 2026 street maintenance projects.
The projects for this year include seal coat, polypatch, major rehab (street and concrete alley), asphalt rejuvenator, pavement markings, curb and brick repair, sidewalk rebate program, and in-house crack seal and asphalt/concrete repair.
The total cost of the projects is $953,479, to be funded out of Special Highway Fund, leaving a balance of $135,765.
In other business, James Bell, public relations manager, will give a review of work in the new department.
The Feb. 5 agenda is available here. The work session starts at 4 p.m. in Hays City Hall, 1507 Main.
