Executive Summary:

The Department of Transportation and Public Works (TPW), in compliance with Section 2121 of the Streets and Highway Code, annually submits the additions and deletions to the mileage of maintained County roads to the State of California, Department of Transportation. The certified mileage of County maintained roads is used in the formula for gas tax allocation to the County of Sonoma from the Highway Users Tax Account, as well as in the calculation of local street rehabilitation for local Measure M.  The mileage of County maintained roads has not changed since the 2019 mileage certification.

 

Discussion:

The State of California imposes per-gallon excise taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, sales taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel and registration taxes on motor vehicles with allocations dedicated to transportation purposes. These allocations flow through the Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA) in the Transportation Tax Fund. Through the HUTA, the State disburses a percentage of the taxes collected at a ratio related to the number of miles maintained in the County roadway system, compared with the total miles of road in the State. Certifying the mileage annually ensures that the County receives the correct apportionment from the HUTA.  The mileage certification is also used for apportionment of funds towards local street rehabilitation under local Measure M. Changes to the amount of maintained mileage occur for a variety of reasons, including annexations to and from nearby cities or the State, clerical corrections to the mileage system, and new construction.

The mileage of County maintained roads remained unchanged for the period of May 2019 to May 2020.

The current maintained mileage is 1,368.37 miles.
