Measure T in Madera County

Revenue Received thru December 2023

Local Streets and Road Maintenance

Measure T is a critical component of the County's road maintenance program. Currently, no money ($0) from our General Fund (i.e., property tax revenue) is used for road maintenance.  The County receives approximately $8.5 million from the state's gas tax and local transportation funds.  Senate Bill 1 (SB1) revenues range between $6 and $7 million per year.  Measure T contributes between $1 and $1.5 million each year to general road maintenance. Together, these revenue streams result in approximately $15-$18 million annually, which is the approximate amount that the County’s 2019 Pavement Management Program report identified would be needed annually for the 10-year period of 2018-2028 to maintain the current County maintained network at the condition it is currently in.  

​Pavement condition is measured on a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) scale between 1 and 100, with the average condition of Madera County roads being just 44.  We would need almost $23 million a year to raise our score to 55 and just under $32 million a year to reach our target of 65.  A new expenditure plan gives us the opportunity to get closer to meeting our regional needs without increasing taxes.
