The Town of Superior maintains an extensive road network of 38.5 miles. <br />Typically, the Town funds maintenance with available funds for the year. From 2011-20, the Town <br />spent about $2.4 million per year to maintain Town streets. Due to funding constraints, needs in other <br />areas, and deferred maintenance projects, only $1 million per year is programmed for street <br />improvements in 2022-26. <br />The Town has identified $40 million in unfunded capital projects, with more than $28 million in <br />transportation improvement projects. However, the number of capital projects for any given year <br />exceeds available funding, causing delays in some projects and not being able to move forward with <br />other projects. <br />To pave the way for these road maintenance projects, the Town of Superior is proposing a 0.28% increase <br />to the Town's current sales and use tax rate specifically for transportation projects. That's 28 cents for <br />every $100 spent. <br />• This new revenue will amount to an additional estimated $1 million in 2022 and $1.6 million in 2023 <br />and annually thereafter for various maintenance projects. It would be legally obligated to <br />transportation projects. <br />• As a sales tax increase, all who shop or dine in Superior — both residents and visitors — will share the <br />responsibility of maintaining and improving roads used by all. In Superior, 70% of sales tax revenue <br />comes from non-residents. <br />One Town goal is to continue to expand and improve services and infrastructure. A few projects to <br />be funded by this initiative are listed below.
