Alignment with Strategic Plan: Sustainable Growth and Infrastructure - Maximize use of County facilities and assets.
Background and Discussion: Both the Transportation Division and the Road & Bridge Division received funding increases in 2026 for programs, projects and services due to the passing of Proposition 1A. The intent of this meeting is to provide progress on the implementation of the five-year plans with the Board and answer any associated questions.
The Transportation Division was provided a $13.86 million capital budget in 2026 which included funding for a much-needed program called roadway reconstructs in the amount of $6.0 million. The $6.0 million amount was provided from Proposition 1A funding. The Road & Bridge Division received an additional $10.0 million which allowed for the expansion of maintenance services.
The first year of the current five-year plan is being implemented this year. The future projects in the 5-year plan will remain flexible and will be adjusted based on this year's projects and the pricing that each program realizes. These adjustments will be made to the plan and finalized during the budget process in the second half of this year.
