BACKGROUND
In November 1989, San Bernardino County voters approved Measure I, supporting a half-cent sales tax in the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the County for the 20-year period between April 1, 1990, and March 31, 2010. Measure I revenues from the tax are used for transportation purposes only and may include, but are not limited to, the construction, maintenance, improvements, and operation of local streets, roads, and highways, state highways and freeways, public transit systems including rail, and related purposes. The funding derived from Measure I is managed by the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA). Early in the second decade of Measure I, it became apparent that continuation of the half-cent sales tax would be critical to maintaining funding for transportation projects in San Bernardino County. Ultimately, the voters of San Bernardino County approved SBCTA Ordinance 04-01 on November 4, 2004, extending the half-cent sales tax for 30 years to March 31, 2040.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The Measure I Strategic Plan requires governing bodies receiving Measure I revenue from the Local Pass-Through Program to adopt a Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan annually. This plan is intended to effectively outline the specific projects upon which Measure I local pass-through funds will be expended. Moreover, the Measure I Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan includes a five-year period from Fiscal Year 2025-26 through Fiscal Year 2029-30.
The City is obligated to annually adopt by resolution a Five-Year plan and expenditure strategy. Specifically, the Capital Improvement Plan acknowledges that the City will maintain the general fund expenditures within the said fiscal year at the required Maintenance of Effort (MOE) base year level for construction and maintenance projects related to transportation. Therefore, the City of Chino must spend at least $383,567 annually from its General Fund until the year 2040 to receive its share of the Measure I funding.
In addition, agencies shall also adopt an Expenditure Strategy statement detailing the City’s approach to spending the funds and must be included with the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan.
The projects included in the Measure I Local Pass-Through Program Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan do not reflect the City’s entire Capital Improvement Program. Rather the plan consists of projects that receive partial or full funding from Measure I Local Pass-Through funds and adhere to the Expenditure Strategy statement.
