Adopt a resolution declaring the incorporation of a list of projects proposed to be funded by Senate Bill 1, Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, Local Streets and Roads, Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation for Fiscal Year 2018-19 into the Capital Improvement Program. 2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all documents, subject to City Attorney approval. BACKGROUND On April 28, 2017, Governor Brown signed Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) to address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on both state highways and local street and road systems. SB 1 is funded through increases in per gallon fuel excise taxes, increases in diesel fuel sales taxes, and vehicle registration fees and provides for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years. The State Controller will deposit various portions of this new funding into the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). A percentage of RMRA funding will be apportioned by formula to the City of Santa Clarita (City) pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 2032(h). Page 1 Packet Pg. 69 7 SB 1 emphasizes the importance of accountability and transparency. For this reason, California Transportation Commission (CTC) staff, in collaboration with stakeholders, developed Local Streets and Roads Funding Annual Reporting Guidelines. To be eligible for SB 1 and RMRA funding, the guidelines require the City to provide annual project reporting to the CTC, specifically, a list of project(s) proposed to be funded with RMRA funding. All proposed projects must be adopted by resolution by the City Council at a regular public meeting prior to May 1, 2018. The City selected the 2018-19 Overlay and Slurry Seal Program Design and Construction to receive the SB 1 RMRA funds. These funds will replace other funding sources that normally fund this project such as TDA Article 8, Gas Tax and Measure R Local while increasing the total current Overlay and Slurry Seal Program budget by $1,000,000. This project reflects the City's commitment to roadway infrastructure and supports the Santa Clarita 2020 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure. The City's Five-Year Pavement Preservation Program identifies that $22,900,000 is needed annually to maintain a Pavement Condition Index rating of 68 for the City's major roadways. of the design process. The project is currently in design and staff anticipates awarding a construction contract in June 2019. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in July 2019. In recent months, there were two concurrent efforts to qualify initiatives to repeal SB 1. Initiative proponents have until May 21, 2018, to collect required signatures to place the measure before the voters at the November 6, 2018, election. Under existing law, if the measure is approved by California voters, the proposed initiative would repeal the provisions of SB 1 effective the day after the November 6 election. Funds collected between the various operative dates provided for under SB 1 and the effective date of the ballot initiative would be distributed according to existing law. There is no provision in the initiative for return of the funds to those who paid fees during the time the law was operative. ALTERNATIVE ACTION Other action as determined by the City Council. FISCAL IMPACT Upon approval of the recommended actions, the 2018-19 Overlay and Slurry Seal Program will earmark $3,592,719 in SB1 RMRA funds (267). Appropriation of SB1 RMRA funds will be part of the Fiscal Year 2018-19 budget.
