PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 01, 2026
SUBJECT:
Local Streets and Roads Maintenance and Rehabilitation, Project List Fiscal Year 2026-27 — Adoption RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to submit a list of projects proposed to be funded with the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account, Senate Bill 1 funding, to the California Transportation Commission for Fiscal Year 2026-27.
BACKGROUND:
On April 28, 2017, the Governor signed Senate Bill 1 (SB1), which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 to address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on both the state highway and local streets and road system. SB1 increased per-gallon fuel excise taxes, diesel fuel sales taxes, and vehicle registration fees, and provided for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.
Beginning November 1, 2017, the State Controller deposited various portions of this new funding into the newly created Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). A percentage of this RMRA funding has been apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 2032(h) for road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and road system.
Prior to receiving an apportionment of RMRA funds from the State Controller in a fiscal year, a local agency must submit to the California Transportation Commission (CTC), by July 1st of each year, a list of projects proposed to be constructed with these funds. The estimated amount of the apportionment for the City for Fiscal Year 2026-27 is approximately $3,000,000 and is subject to fluctuations in actual tax and fee revenues.
The proposed project will rehabilitate street segments which are in poor condition identified as part of the City's pavement management program. The estimated useful life of the pavement treatment is on average about 20 years. The project is currently in planning/design with construction estimated to begin in July 2027. Staff recommends seeking RMRA fund apportionment for Fiscal Year 2026-27 for the proposed pavement rehabilitation and reconstruction projects which include the following street segments:

BUDGET IMPACT:
According to the most recently available revenue estimates by the California League of Cities, the City of San Mateo is anticipated to receive an estimated amount of $3,000,000 from the RMRA for Fiscal Year 2026-27 toward street rehabilitation/reconstruction. These estimated allocations are appropriate for budgeting purposes but are subject to change when the Department of Finance releases updated revenue estimates with the Governor’s revision to the proposed State budget. As noted previously, actual revenues may vary based on total taxes and fees collected.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This action is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4).)
