Title
ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A LIST OF PROJECTS PROPOSED TO BE FUNDED BY SENATE BILL 1 FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 AND RELATED CEQA EXEMPTION (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
The Department of Public Works (DPW) maintains approximately 2,000 centerline miles of roads in unincorporated San Diego County (County). Centerline miles measure total road length, regardless of lane count or width. Between 2012 and 2016, the County's Pavement Condition Index (PCI)-an industry-standard road rating system-declined from 70 to 60, primarily due to reduced maintenance caused by rising construction costs and declining gas tax revenues from more fuel-efficient vehicles.
Over the past eight years, road conditions in the County's maintenance have significantly improved through Senate Bill 1 (SB1) funding and associated resurfacing projects, bringing the current PCI to 69. DPW anticipates receiving $59.9 million in SB1 revenue for FY (Fiscal Year) 2024-25 and $62.9 million for FY 2025-26 to continue road improvements. To secure this funding, the Board of Supervisors (Board) must annually adopt a resolution approving proposed project locations and submit it to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by July 1, 2025. In FY 2025-26, DPW estimates that SB1 revenue will fund approximately 91% of the resurfacing program.
For FY 2025-26, DPW has identified 95.54 centerline miles for resurfacing, detailed in Attachment A, Exhibit A1 and summarized in the table below. These locations were selected through a data-driven prioritization process to maximize resources for the public's benefit. The prioritization process considers data from pavement management software, operational needs identified by physical inspections, and recommendations from the community. The road list was also balanced proportionally to the total centerline miles within each Supervisorial District.
