BACKGROUND:

Section 2121 of the California Streets and Highways Code requires that in May of each year, each county shall report to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) “any additions or exclusions from its mileage of maintained county highways.”  This report typically takes the form of a certification of the total mileage of the County of San Mateo’s (County’s) maintained road system.  The County reported to Caltrans in May 2018 that the total County-maintained road system mileage as of December 31, 2017 was 316.228. Your Board has adopted similar resolutions directing the reporting of the total number of maintained miles in previous years.

 

DISCUSSION:

This year, the proposed total County-maintained mileage as of December 31, 2018 to be reported to Caltrans in May 2019 is 316.228 miles. There were no additions or subtractions of miles during 2018. 

 

Exhibit “A” to the resolution provides the summary of the County of San Mateo Maintained Road Mileage, as of December 31, 2018.

 

The County of San Mateo is expecting to receive $13.6 million in gas tax revenue and an additional $9.3 million in SB 1 funding for the 2018-19 Fiscal Year.  The Department of Public Works uses these funds to maintain the County of San Mateo’s road system for the benefit of the traveling public.

 

County Counsel has reviewed and approved the resolution as to form.

 

Certification of the mileage in the County’s maintained road system contributes to the Shared Vision 2025 outcome of a Collaborative Community by assisting the State of California in their calculation for the allocation of gas tax revenues to the local agencies.

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no impact to the General Fund.  The normal cost for managing the road records annually is approximately $10,000, which is paid for from this gas tax revenue.
