Agenda Item #9.G
SUBJECT/TITLE:
APPROVAL OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2022 PAVING PROJECT FOR PROPOSED ROAD MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATION ACCOUNT FUNDING (SB1)
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2023 Paving Project for proposed Senate Bill 1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account funding for Fiscal Year 2023.
BACKGROUND:
On April 28, 2017, the Governor signed Senate Bill (SB) 1, which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. SB 1 increases fuel excise taxes, diesel fuel sales taxes, and vehicle registration fees to help address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs for state highway and local streets and roads.
Beginning November 1, 2017, the State Controller began depositing these revenues into local governments’ newly created Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA).
So far, the City has received the $492,885 of RMRA funds through fiscal year (FY) 2021:
Fiscal Year RMRA Funds Received
FY 2018 $48,324
FY 2019 $150,978
FY 2020 $142,698
FY 2021 $150,885
Total $492,885
The City is projected to receive $167,937 in FY 2022 of RMRA funds. The City anticipates another $184,819 in FY 2023 per the CaliforniaCityFinance.com RMRA Estimates as of January 2022. These funds are deposited in the City’s Gas Tax Fund RMRA account to support a budgeted street maintenance project. The California Transportation Commission (CTC) requests that cities and counties submit a Council-approved project list identified for proposed RMRA funding no later than July 1, 2022 to receive these funds in FY 2023. This project list must include a description and the location of each proposed project, a proposed schedule for the project’s completion, and the estimated useful life of the improvement.
Maintenance of Effort
The amount that each City receives is based on a portion of the average of General Fund and Half-Cent Sales Tax Fund costs spent on street repairs and maintenance as reported to the State Controller’s Office for FY 2010, FY 2011, and FY 2012. For the City of Pismo Beach, this amount has been calculated to be $558,874. This level of funding is the City’s Maintenance of Effort, or required annual funding, from discretionary funds for street
