Your Tax Dollars at Work

In November 2000, Alameda County voters reauthorized Measure B -- the half-cent sales tax for transportation expenditures.  The City of Livermore receives about $1.2 million annually from this tax source for street and trail improvements.  The following projects used approximately $1.2 million of Measure B funds for streets and trails for the prior Fiscal Year 2011-2012:

Project Name	Funded by Measure B
Annual Pavement Overlays	$500,000
Annual Slurry Seal	$7,900
Annual Sidewalk Repair Program	$178,700
Design of Various Trail Projects	$350,000

Approximately $1,100,000 in Measure B funds (streets and trails) is budgeted in the Capital Improvement Program for the current Fiscal Year 2012-2013.  These projects include:
