RESOLUTION NO. ___ (N.C.S.)
A Resolution adopting a list of projects for FY 2022-23 TO BE PARTIALLY OR FULLY FUNDED BY SB1: The road repair and accountability act of 2017 WHEREAS, Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017) was passed by the Legislature and Signed into law by the Governor in April 2017 to address the significant multi-modal transportation funding shortfalls like those described in the City and statewide; and WHEREAS, SB 1 includes accountability and transparency provisions that will ensure the residents of the City are aware of the projects proposed for funding in our community and which projects have been completed each fiscal year; and 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 SB1, which 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; and WHEREAS, the City, will receive an estimated $4.875 million in RMRA funding in FY 2022-23 from SB1; and WHEREAS, this is the sixth year in which the City is receiving SB 1 funding and will enable the City to continue essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects, safety improvements, repairing and replacing aging bridges, and increasing access and mobility options for the traveling public that would not have otherwise been possible without SB 1; and WHEREAS, the City has established its community’s transportation priorities (i.e., the project list herein) through a combination of Pavement Maintenance System (PMS) findings, direct community feedback to City Council members and staff; feedback by the community at public meetings; and transportation infrastructure assessments by City engineering and maintenance staff; and WHEREAS, the City used a PMS to develop the SB1 project list, to ensure revenues are being used on the most high priority and cost effective projects and incorporating equity in each City District that also meet the community’s priorities for transportation investment; and WHEREAS, the funding from SB1 will help the City maintain and rehabilitate streets and roads with crack sealing, patch and repair, chip seal or slurry seal, and add active transportation infrastructure throughout the City this year and continue to perform preventive maintenance on roads into the near future; and WHEREAS, the 2020 California Statewide Local Streets and Roads Needs Assessment estimated that the City’s streets and roads are in a “at higher risk” condition and this revenue will help us increase the overall quality of our road system and over the next decade our goal is to bring our streets and roads into a “good-excellent” condition; and WHEREAS, the SB 1 project list and overall investment in our local streets and roads infrastructure with a focus on basic maintenance and safety, investing in complete streets infrastructure, and using cutting edge technology, materials and practices, will have signification positive co-benefits statewide; and WHEREAS, without revenue from SB 1, the City, would have otherwise had to make difficult decisions about deferring maintenance on a greater portion of its vast transportation infrastructure assets and risk increased wear and tear of exponential proportions; and WHEREAS, if the Legislature and Governor failed to act, City streets would have continued to deteriorate at a higher rate, having many and varied negative impacts on our community; and WHEREAS, modernizing the local street and road system provides well-paying construction jobs and boosts local economies; and WHEREAS, the local street and road system is also critical for Salinas’ farm to market needs, interconnectivity, multimodal needs, and commerce; and WHEREAS, police, fire, and emergency medical services all need safe reliable roads to react quickly to emergency calls and a few minutes of delay can be a matter of life and death; and WHEREAS, maintaining and preserving the local street and road system in good condition will reduce drive times and traffic congestion, improve bicycle safety, and make the pedestrian experience safer and more appealing, which lead to reducing vehicle emissions and helping the State achieve its air quality and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goals; and WHEREAS, restoring roads before they fail also reduces construction time which results in less air pollution from heavy equipment and less water pollution from site run-off; and WHEREAS, The City has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).
