RESOLUTION NUMBER 84-
SUPPORTING INCREASED STATE HIGHWAY FUNDING, PASSAGE OF THE
POTHOLE BILL AND INCREASED HIGHWAY USER CHARGES
WHEREAS, authoritative surveys reveal that:
(1) Texas leads the nation in the number of deficient bridges
(172,000) and deteriorated state roadways (7,740 miles).
(2) The state's 5~ per-gallon motor fuel tax is the lowest in the
nation, and has not been increased in 27 years. Moreover, in
1965, 27% of the state budget went for transportation, while in
1'982 only about 10% of the state budget was spent for transpor-
tation-related purposes.
(3) Each Texas motorist pays a "bad roads" tax averaging $291 per
year for wasted gasoline, tire wear, car repairs, insurance and
medical bills.
(4) Additional transportation spending of $51 billion will be needed
over the next 20 years to overcome the current backlog of needs--
including $6.2 million for road and bridge rehabilitation $30.3
billion for reconstruction, $6.7 billion for new roads and $7.7
billion for maintenance; and
WHEREAS, the state's transportation funding problems are reflected at
the local level.. as follows:
(1) The current backlog of city street repair needs exceeds $1 bil-
lion. Texas cities are spending an estimated $193 million per
year on street repairs--more than ever before. But they are
still falling further behind each year, because the street re-
pair backlog is growing at rates that exceed local spending in-
creases. The cities must have state financial assistance in
order to bring their streets and bridges up to standard.
(2) Upwards of 20 percent of all municipal streets--more than 13,000
miles--are currently in need of major rep,air. .
(3) The deterioration of city streets and bridges will accelerate in
the future. The 10 million motor vehicles already in the state
are wearing out local roads and 'bridges faster than they can be
repaired; twenty years from now, the cities will have 16 million
vehicles to contend with--more than half again today's volume; Ian
,WHEREAS, the Texas Municipal League supports the state funding and tax
increases necessary to bring our state-local road and bridges up to par.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of West
University Place, that the Texas Legislature is urged to enact a state-local
road and bridge financing package composed of the following: '
(1) An increase of $1 billion per year in funding for the State De-
partment of Highways and Public Transportation.
(2) $100 million per year for the City Street Improvement Fund (the
"Pothole Bi 11") proposed, but not approved, during the 1983
Legislative session.
(3) Doubling the rate of the state motor fuel tax to 10~/gallon and
increasing motor vehicle license fees as necessary to generate
adequate funding.

classification is the area now classified as "retail business" or

any change in use designation of any other property.
