Initially, the PMP software utilized was from GBA MasterSeries which eventually became LuCity. In 2013, the City converted to the StreetSaver PMP, which is the most widely used program in California. NCE assisted the City in developing maintenance and rehabilitation strategies for the decision tree and performed preliminary budgetary analyses for planning purposes. These efforts were documented in a technical memorandum dated October 28th, 2013. In 2014, NCE updated the City’s pavement management system by performing field condition surveys of the City’s entire pavement network (274.3 centerline miles). The network consists of 41.39 centerline miles of arterials, 44.42 centerline miles of collectors, 148.05 centerline miles of residential or local streets, 37.3 centerline miles of bike paths, and 42 parking lots. Field surveys were completed in May and August 2014 and all survey data had been entered into the City’s StreetSaver database. Recent pavement maintenance and rehabilitation

  • Pembroke College, Cambridge the Dead of the War of 1914-1918 1. The
    PEMBROKE COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE THE DEAD OF THE WAR OF 1914-1918 1. THE 1914-1918 WAR MEMORIAL At Pembroke College, Cambridge the memorial to those of the College identified as having died in the war of 1914-18 is next to the entrance to the college chapel, on the West side of the Hitcham cloister; and the memorial for the war of 1939-45 is opposite, on the East side of the same cloister. The former was designed by T.H. Lyon,[1] made by the Cambridge stonemasons and builders Messrs Rattee and Kett,[2] and dedicated by the then Bishop of Wakefield[3] on 3 December 1924, at a ceremony over which the then Master of Pembroke College[4]presided. The first memorial records three-hundred and eight names,[5] the second one hundred and fifty-two.[6] In each case only those dying on the Allied side are listed. Likewise, for the First war only those killed in action or dying of wounds or other illnesses contracted in military service up to the Armistice are shown.[7] Aside from the omission of those (relatively few) who may have died on the Austro-German and Ottoman side (of whom up to six may in due course be identifiable)[8] or of those whose death, although related to war service, occurred after the list had been drawn up for the stonemasons, the main source of uncertainty in the coverage of the 1914-18 listing concerns having or not belonged to Pembroke College. [9] From 1914 onwards this uncertainty also affects the year recorded as that of first belonging to the College.
