This SB1 fund will help increase the overall quality of our road system and will keep our streets and roads in good condition; and WHEREAS, without revenue from SB 1, the City's average Pavement Condition Index, a measure of the pavement condition, would have otherwise continued to decrease at an increasing rate; and DocuSign Envelope ID: 3528F132-0A1E-45BD-A3C3-C1FD5909E2E0 1 7 2 3 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 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 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 in turn will lead to reduced vehicle emissions and help the State achieve its air quality and greenhouse gas emissions reduction 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 SB 1 projects 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 significant positive co-benefits statewide.
