WHEREAS, SB 1 includes accountability and transparency provisions to ensure Fullerton residents are aware of the projects proposed for funding in the community and which projects the City completed each fiscal year.
WHEREAS, the City must adopt by resolution a list of projects proposed to receive fiscal year funding from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA), created by SB 1, which must include a description and the location of each proposed project, a proposed schedule for project completion and the estimated useful life of the improvement.
WHEREAS, the City will receive an estimated $3,774,844 in RMRA funding in Fiscal Year 2025-2026 from SB 1.

WHEREAS, the City underwent a public process, including Infrastructure and Natural Resources Advisory Committee review and recommendation, to ensure public input into our Fullerton’s transportation priorities and the project list.
WHEREAS, the City used a Pavement Management System to develop the SB 1 project list to ensure the City uses revenues on the highest-priority and most cost-effective projects that also meet community priorities for transportation investment.
Whereas, SB 1 funding will help the City maintain and rehabilitate two roadway projects this year and at least one similar project each year into the future.
