A commitment was made in this <br /> legislation to pave within 10 years all unpaved roads which have 50 cars or more traveling <br /> thereon per day. For the first time this year, the subdivisions were placed in a separate <br /> Category.. However, the money can be spent on either subdivision or rural roads. The <br /> formula for allocating money statewide was changed so that the money will now be allocated <br /> to where the unpaved roads with 50 cars or more a day are located. Orange County will get <br /> approximately 1.7 million dollars of this allocation. However, because the program is not <br /> yet finalized, the amount of money that Orange County will receive is still uncertain. <br /> A list of' the proposed 1989-90 Secondary Roads scheduled for improvement is incorporated as <br /> a part of these minutes by reference and may be found in the permanent agenda file in the <br /> Clerk's office. The Board of Transportation did not specify the amount of money that would <br /> go to subdivision vs. rural roads. Watkins indicated that they are recommending that a, <br /> majority of the money go for rural road. However, there is some flexibility in that plan <br /> and it could be changed. The legislation is also going to include a rule that once a road <br /> gets in the top 10 it must stay there. It can not be reprioritized. He also indicated <br /> that this' program will take 13 1/2 years to complete.' <br />
