RESOLUTION NO. 1670,~
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, REGARDING APPORTIONMENT AND EXPENDITURE OF GAS TAX FUNDS.
WHEREAS, the majority of the population of the state resides
in the thirteen southern counties; and
WHEREAS, the majority of the registered vehicles are also
in these counties; and
WHEREAS, in recent years allocations of gas tax funds to
cities and counties have increased, and administrative and engineer
ing requirements and restrictions imposed by the state have been
modified; and
WHEREAS, further modifications are desirable authorizing
cities and counties to utilize gas tax funds on non-select system
streets on a fifty-fifty matching fund basis from non-gas tax
sources and authorizing use of gas tax funds to provide street
lighting on those streets qualifying as select system streets;
now therefore, be it
RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Carlsbad that
legislation be introduced to revise the Mayo-Breed formula to
provide that 60% of the state gas tax funds be returned to the
thirteen southern counties instead of the presently existing
formula of 55%, and, be it further
RESOLVED, that legislation be introduced which would permit
cities to utilize gas tax funds on non-select system streets
providing they match state gas tax funds on a fifty-fifty basis
from non-gas tax sources; and, be it further
RESOLVED, that the gas tax funds be available for street
lighting on these streets qualifying as select system streets.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED by the City Council of the City
