Transportation Needs: $1.5 B/yr.
• Ideally, transportation funding supports needs of all transportation systems– Bottom Line…Not enough money to do it all– Some effort to prioritize must be done
• Decisions must be based on most cost effective options that have largest benefits– May mean doing something different– Can’t keep doing what we’ve always done and
expect a better result
Prioritizing Investment

Reinvigorating the economy…creating jobs
Preserving existing assets
Moving people & goods effectively
Highest priority for the state & transportation
• Savings: $63 m per year over 5 years– Closed facilities– 15% of positions left vacant– Refinance debt– Electronic signature– Energy retrofits– Leveraging Partnerships– Many other cost-saving innovations
MDOT Efficiencies
– Convert cents-per-gallon gas tax to % of wholesale price, plus 14₵ increase to 33₵
– Diesel parity, from 15₵ to 33₵
– Increase passenger registration fees 60%
– Increase weight-based truck fees 25%
– Direct revenue to the roads that are most used
– Plus a local option countywide registration
Other proposals also exist: a sales tax increase dedicated to transportation or eliminating loopholes in current tax law
The Governor’s Proposal
Fiscal Year 2014 Budget
• $120 million to STF to match federal funds• $115 million for Roads and Risks Reserve
Fund in October, another $115 million in February– A total of $230 million to accelerate programmed
preservation work• Just a down payment on the $1.5 billion per
year additional investment needed– $1.2 billion through statewide user fee increase– $300 million by enabling local-option fees
Community Impacts
• Biggest impact is lack of action on revenue package
• Community impacts subject to size of revenue package and local investment decisions
