RESOLUTION NO. 23-1394 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON, AMENDING THE 2023-24 BUDGET TO INCORPORATE A LIST OF PROJECTS FUNDED BY SB-1, 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 in order to address the significant multi-modal transportation funding shortfalls statewide; and WHEREAS, SB-1 includes accountability and transparency provisions that will ensure the residents of our 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 a resolution that includes a list of all projects proposed to receive funding from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA), created by SB-1, in the City budget, 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 $1,971,217 in RMRA funding in Fiscal Year 23/24 from SB-1; and WHEREAS, the City has undergone a robust public process to ensure public input into our community's transportation priorities/the project list; and WHEREAS, the City used a Pavement Management System to develop the SB-1 project list to ensure revenues are being used on the most high-priority and cost-effective projects that also meet the community's priorities for transportation investment; and WHEREAS, the funding from SB-1 will help the City maintain and rehabilitate local streets, add active transportation infrastructure throughout the City this year and hundreds of similar projects into the future; and WHEREAS, the 2020 California Statewide Local Streets and Roads Needs Assessment found that the City streets and roads are in a "good" condition and this revenue will help us increase the overall quality of our road system and over the next decade will maintain our streets and roads in a "good to excellent" condition; and WHEREAS, without revenue from SB-1, the City would have otherwise been reducing transportation projects throughout the community and reducing the condition of the roadway system; and WHEREAS, if the Legislature and Governor failed to act, city streets and county roads would have continued to deteriorate, having many and varied negative impacts on our community; and WHEREAS, cities and counties own and operate more than 81 percent of streets and roads in California, and from the moment we open our front door to drive to work, bike to school, or walk to the bus station, people are dependent upon a safe, reliable local transportation network; and
