Measure C Is Not A New Tax
• Renewing Measure C does not create a new tax—
it simply continues a half-cent sales tax that has funded billions of transportation improvements since 1986.
• This funding is to maintain our roads, public transit, and infrastructure.
• Without it, road maintenance and transportation projects could be delayed or cut, making travel less safe and
efficient.
Measure C = Over $10 Billion
• Measure C has raised over $2.1 billion in local funds, which was leveraged to bring in an additional $8 billion from state and federal sources.
• These funds have supported road repairs, airport upgrades, public transit, and highway expansions.
Measure C Costs the Average
Household About $8 Per Month
• Fresno County households contribute about $8 a month to Measure C through everyday shopping on taxable items.
• This pays for local road maintenance.
• If Measure C is not renewed, the cost of fixing roads and transportation issues will be higher.
• Almost 25% comes from people visiting our county.
