CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSIONS
MilMAMEN■■•w+M MMIM.M.M.M
The analysis described in the prior chapter leads to the following
conclusions:
Revenues allocated for maintenance are inadequate. The estimated
shortfall in this region is about $100 million. Local agencies are
deferring maintenance particularly in the are of cyclical
maintenance.
Fiscal pressures on local jurisdictions will increase as their revenue
sources become more constrained by Proposition 13 and reduced gas tax
proceeds from the state.
The problem will get considerably worse over the next decade as the
roads age and as more maintenance is deferred,
Problems resulting from deferred maintenance will not show right avey.
The condition of pavement deteriorates slowly over 20-40 years, hut
once cracks begin to appear the deterioration process accelerates
rapidly- 3 to 5 years without preventive maintenance. When pavement
conditions are severely deteriorated, only expensive restc)rat on er
complete reconstruction are possible. Increased exposure , to
liability and higher user costs must be added to these higher
rebuilding costs ,*
The Foran bill is only a partial answer,
These conclusions do not augur well for the investment made in the
street and road system. If this conditi.on is allowed to continue, the
cities and counties of the region would be faced with major costs or
with accepting the disintegration that will occur, evidence of which
already exists and will be documented more fully in a subsequent
report.
The easy answer is more money, and more money is required. However,
this is not enough. Alternative maintenance strategies must be
developed in order to make the most effective use of whatever resources
are available. (see Appendix F) . Also, in working with tie many
cities and counties throughout the region, it has become apparent that
there ate great opportunities to:
• share inforrnaton on
effectiveness
• develop new,
procedures
• develop priorities for maintenance so that existing budg-ets
be used in a cost effecitve way
. develop more effective pavement nanagement systems
These astvities must accompany efforts to make the public and local
officials more aware of the :growing problems associated 1:'Lith deferred
