Subject: Adoption of a Resolution for the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Project List Funded by Senate Bill 1 – The Road to Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
For City Council to adopt a Resolution for the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Project List, funded by gas tax revenue from Senate Bill 1 (SB1) – The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.
BACKGROUND
In April 2017, Governor Brown signed into law Senate Bill 1 (SB1), which increased the vehicle fuel tax by $0.12 and the diesel excise tax by $0.20 per gallon. SB1 also implemented a new transportation vehicle fee based on vehicle value and an annual vehicle registration fee for zero-emission vehicles.
DISCUSSION
For a City to be eligible for SB1 apportionments, the California Transportation Commission (CTC), the lead administrative agency tasked with oversight of SB1, requires cities to formally submit annual Project Lists for administrative review and adoption. For Fiscal Year 2026-27, the City is anticipating approximately $4.6 million in SB1 revenues for transportation projects.
Project Lists are capital improvements detailing SB1 fund expenditures, including project name, scope, schedule and other construction data. As per the attached resolution, FY 2026- 27 SB1 funds will be used for constructing the following projects:
