Each county's allocation is determined by dividing the total allocation by the statewide mileage times the number of miles in each county Secondary road construction allocations are based upon the amount of revenue generated by the gasoline tax and moneys from recently approved bond fund. The final total will not be known until the end of the current fiscal year, ending June 30, 1997 Should there be a significant change in the county allocation, we will inform you of any adjustment in the Secondary Road Construction Program for 1997-98. Based on an unpaved mileage of approximately 7 miles in New Hanover County, compared to unpaved miles statewide, the secondary allocation is estimated at $121,719.00 which is expected to be approved at the July Board Meeting. rn~@~OW~iill MAY 281m 73 NEW HANOVER CO. 1 BD. OF COMMISSiC: :::RS @ e Secondary Road Construction Program May 27,1997 Page 2 The North Carolina Board of Transportation has approved a paving priority rating system having two paving priorities in each county, one for rural roads and one for residential/subdivision roads. The board now requires a separate listing of roads for each county showing the roads which have been previously skipped over because the right of way was not available. Although these roads will not be shown on either of the two paving priority lists, provisions have been made for any such road to be reinstated to its prior position at such time as right of way becomes available, or as soon thereafter as reinstatement can be administratively accomplished. A copy of the paving priorities, and the list of roads with unavailable right of way is attached for your reference. In compliance with our Board's directives, while addressing overall county needs, we submit the following proposal for expenditure of estimated secondary road construction funds for New Hanover County, for the period through June 1998. This proposal will be presented at your regularly scheduled public hearing on June 16, 1997 at 9:00 A.M. as follows: Estimated July 1, 1997 Secondary County Construction Allocation $121,719 Highway Fund Highway Trust Fund Highway Bond Fund 47,856 50,560 23,303 Spot Stabilization, Paved Road Improvements Safety Improvements and Bridge Replacements 13.606 108,113 74 .
