pavements are in need of capital preventive maintenance to avoid deteriorating to the poor classification. Good
pavements generally receive only routine maintenance, such as street sweeping and snow removal, until they
deteriorate to the fair condition.

Note: SEMCOG's 2008 Land Use data set represents land use only and not land cover. Due to this difference, change
analysis using this data set and previous SEMCOG land use/land cover data sets in not possible. Noticeable differences
in map appearance and classification acreage totals are the result of this land use data originating from digital parcel
files assigned land use codes based on their assessed property class and the lack of any land cover data.
