Document Description
The South Placer County District Expenditure Plan was prepared by the Placer County Local Transportation Authority (the "Authority") for the purpose of establishing a one-half of one percent (0.5%) retail transactions and use tax for transportation purposes within the incorporated territory of the cities of Lincoln, Rocklin and Roseville, to be collected for thirty (30) years, if approved by the voters on November 5, 2024. This is proposed by the Authority as a means to fill the shortfall in funding needed to: implement necessary highway, local road, interchange, rail, and transit projects; secure new transportation corridors through environmental clearance and right of way purchases; provide adequate maintenance and improvements on the local street and road system; promote economic growth throughout the County; and meet the needs of commuters and the specialized needs of the growing senior and disabled population.
