Gas Tax Revenue Cuts and Street Maintenance Cuts
Summary
The state transportation bill that didn't pass means about $160,000 less gas tax revenue next year ($815,700 down to $652,600). That zeroes out ADA ramp replacements, slashes street repair money from $50,000 to $9,000, halves striping with Marion County, and wipes out the $135,000 vehicle/equipment replacement reserve.

No one directly — this is a service-cut scenario.
Everyone who drives on city streets — worse pavement, faded striping, no ADA upgrades.
