SUBJECT: <br />TRANSPORTATION ISSUES & BALLOT MEASURES <br />DATE: <br />SEPTEMBER 11, 2018 <br />PAGE3OF7 <br />announced the inclusion of two statewide ballot measures regarding transportation on <br />the November 2018 ballot: Initiative 153 which includes a .62% sales tax increase for <br />transportation and Initiative 167 which requires additional state spending on <br />transportation. In addition, there are several other measures that voters will face on the <br />November 2018 ballot which may have an impact on the City. <br />CDOT completed an extensive process to develop a project list that would identify <br />priorities to be funded through SB18-01, SB17-267 and the CDOT share (45%) of a <br />potential .62% sales tax over 20 years (ballot measure 1 below). In July 2018 the CDOT <br />Transportation Commission adopted a list of projects (Attachment 5) that would utilize <br />bond funds from a new sales tax or state budget funds (depending on if/what ballot <br />issue might pass) for completion; the list includes Highway projects, multimodal projects <br />and statewide programs. <br />Of the two measures, Initiative 153 is the only measure that would generate new <br />transportation funds vs. utilizing existing state budget funds. The majority of the projects <br />on the CDOT list would depend upon the generation of new tax dollars. <br />The City of Louisville has one project on the list for the new statewide ballot measure, <br />SH 42, which would receive $20 million of state funds, some of which would require a <br />match, for approximately $28 million ($20 million CDOT ballot funding + $7.8 million <br />required match). The northwest region would also receive significant funding for <br />regional priorities throughout the area through the adopted list of projects, totaling $915 <br />million ($705 million + $210 million match). <br />Initiative 153: Transportation Commission Adopted Listof Projects - Northwest Metro Region <br />Pro'jt <br />Project Description <br />Proposed <br />COOT Ballot <br />Funding <br />Other Match <br />Funds (COOT <br />/Local/ETD/ <br />Other) <br />Total <br />Potential <br />Funding <br />H 119 <br />Jf3aulder—Longmont[ <br />Managed LanefBRT, bikef ether <br />improvements <br />5365m <br />S144m <br />509m <br />SH 7 <br />[9aulder—Brightanl <br />Managed <br />Ianefsho-uldersrBRT.bike}ether <br />safer• , inte rse mien improvements <br />$155m <br />$17m <br />$172m <br />US 227:5H 66to US36 <br />[Langment-Broomfield) <br />BR-T./managed <br />Ianefintersettionfbikef <br />safety imp.. <br />$51m <br />$6m <br />$57m <br />SH 12/95th Street <br />[Louisville[ <br />5afetyfPedetrian <br />improvements,BRT:'bikelotherimp <br />20m7.Sm27m <br />2Eth St./Broadway <br />iloulderl <br />Transit operational i mprovem enm <br />for regienaIBRTrautes. <br />$23m <br />$3m <br />$26m <br />SH 95/Sheridan <br />[Westminster[ <br />Lane baland rg/U536path grad e <br />se pa rat an <br />$7m <br />$2.2m <br />$9m <br />SH 711-25 Interchange <br />Replacement- <br />Multimodal Hub <br />[Bran mfieId/Ada msM <br />Interchange imp.fmultimodaI <br />hub/transitr'bikefped. <br />improvements <br />$$8.5m <br />530m <br />5115m <br />Total <br />5705m <br />5210m <br />5915m <br />CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION <br />20 <br />
