Table 9: Summary of Options, Features and Costs An analysis could go as follows. If the Board chooses to institute the Maintain Current Pavement Condition Plan (Option 2) for existing infrastructure with the addition of multimodal features countywide and with the addition of stormwater facilities and the life-cycle set-aside for new infrastructure, the cost of the program would be $20,261,000 per year for the first-20 years and $29,814,000 per year for the second-20 years. The total program cost over the next 40 years would be $1,016,800,000. Once the program type, the features, and the life-cycle set-asides for new infrastructure decisions have been made, the needed funding can be determined. Since pavement capital maintenance is a reoccurring cost, the funding for capital maintenance should be reoccurring, as well. Current reoccurring funding for roadway capital maintenance is approximately $2,000,000 from the Nickel Local Option Gas Tax and $3,000,000 (currently being used for debt service) from Gas Tax. With an understanding of the challenges currently being faced by the General Fund, the best option for obtaining the needed funding appears to be through a long term Sales Tax initiative. According to the latest calculations of Sales Tax receipts, a one-cent sales tax would produce $28,000,000 in revenue annually. This revenue, plus the current $5,000,000 being allocated annually to capital maintenance, would fund the first-twenty years of the Proactive Capital Maintenance Plan including multimodal facilities in the entire urbanized area, transportation-related stormwater facilities, and life-cycle set-asides from new infrastructure.
