Report
Summary
On Aug. 25, 2015, City of Phoenix voters approved the passage of Proposition 104 (T2050), which provides a 0.3 percent increase in the transaction privilege and use tax rate to fund citywide transportation projects, including the construction and maintenance of City streets. Collection of T2050 sales tax began on Jan. 1, 2016. The City also receives Arizona Highway User Revenue (AHUR) funds to support the construction and maintenance of its streets.
The proposed FY 2020 and FY 2021 pavement maintenance programs funded with T2050 and AHUR were developed and prioritized using the Street Transportation Department's existing Pavement Management System (PMS). The arterial and major collector streets pavement maintenance program is funded by T2050, while the minor collector and local streets pavement maintenance program is funded by AHUR revenues. (See Attachment A).
Financial Impact
Funding for the citywide pavement maintenance program is available in the Street Transportation Department's Capital Improvement budget using AHUR and T2050 funds.
