ROAD COMMISSION / LOCAL REVENUESThe Road Commission receives revenue through the Michigan Transportation Fund (MTF) from fuel tax and vehicle registrations. This revenue is used to pay for operating and maintenance costs of the roads in Allegan County including payroll, utility costs, equipment and materials, etc.. MTF rates average $2,257.84 per mile of local road and $9,520.72 per mile of primary road.

In 2012 the Road Commission’s MTF revenue was $8,233,772. Federal and State funding acquired for roads and bridges totaled $2,639,616.

The Primary Millage raised $3,104,628 and township contributions added an additional $6,164,277 for primary roads (paved shoulders) and for preventative maintenance and improvements to the local road system.

In 2012, locally raised revenues in Allegan County totaled $9,268,905 and were higher than any other road commission in the state.

ALLEGAN COUNTY MILLAGE HISTORY

• A one mill tax was first collected for bridge and culvert replacement on primary roads in 1968. From 1968-1982 there were 111 bridges and culverts replaced with the millage.

• In 1982 the millage language changed from bridge and culvert replacement to primary road resurfacing.

• In 2008 the language was revised again to include “preservation and preparation” along with resurfacing.

• 2014 is the 2nd year in the current six year millage. The millage renewal was approved in 2012 with a change from a five year period to a six year period to allow for renewal dates to coincide with regular elections.

FINANCIAL GUIDELINES

• The millage revenue is split equally between six areas, each area containing four townships.

• About 30% of the tax collected is distributed to the cities and villages in Allegan County.

• The expenses and revenues for each area are carried through from year to year. This allows for larger projects resulting in lower costs through efficiency of scale.

• If the township agrees to pave existing gravel shoulders on the project, they are responsible for the cost of 2” of the asphalt times the width of the shoulder at the contracted unit price.

• The Road Commission develops a proposed plan for projects and meets with each area annually to discuss the proposal and review the previous year’s projects.

BRIDGES & CULVERTS REPLACED WITH MILLAGE 1968-1982

RESURFACING MILLAGE PROJECT TOTALS 1983-2013

• From 1983-2013 the millage has raised $54,241,725 which has funded:

- 575.57 miles of paving (12.75 in 2013).*Some roads have been resurfaced multiple times.

- 54.84 miles of chip seal & fog coat (6.45 in 2013)

- 9.73 miles of crack sealing (2013)

- 11 large culvert replacements (0 in 2013)

• In 2013, four projects used millage funds to provide the local match for State and Federal funding.

Longitudinal cracks (open 1/4") spaced due to reflection or paving joints.

Transverse cracks (open 1/4") spaced 10 feet or more apart, little or slight crack raveling.

No patching or very few patches in excellent condition.

First signs of aging. Maintain with routine crack filling.

6 Good Slight raveling (loss of lines) and traffic wear.

Longitudinal cracks (open 1/4" - 1/2") due to reflection and paving joints.

Transverse cracking (open 1/4" - 1/2") some spaced less than 10 feet.

Slight to moderate flushing or polishing.

Occasional patching in good condition.

Show signs of aging, sound structural condition. Could extend life with sealcoat.

5 Fair Moderate to severe raveling (loss of lines and coarse aggregate).

Longitudinal cracks (open 1/2") show some slight raveling and secondary cracks. First signs of longitudinal cracks near wheel path or edge.

Transverse cracking and first signs of block cracking. Slight crack raveling (open 1/2").

Extensive to severe flushing or polishing.

Some patching or edge wedging in good condition.

Surface aging, sound structural condition. Needs sealcoat or non-structural overlay.

Multiple longitudinal and transverse cracking with slight raveling.

Block cracking (over 25 - 50% of surface).

Patching in fair condition.

Slight rutting or distortions (1" deep or less).

Significant aging and first signs of need for strengthening. Would benefit from recycling or overlay.

3 Poor Closely spaced longitudinal and transverse cracks often showing raveling and crack erosion.

Block cracking over 50% of surface.

Some alligator cracking (less than 25% of surface).

Patches in fair to poor condition.

Moderate rutting or distortion (1" or 2" deep).

Occasional potholes.

Need patching and major overlay or complete recycling.

2 Very Poor Alligator cracking (over 25% of surface).

Severe distortions (over 2" deep).

Extensive patching in poor condition.

Potholes.

Severe deterioration. Need reconstruction with extensive base repair.

1 Failed Severe distress with extensive loss of surface integrity. Failed. Needs total reconstruction.

Note: Individual pavements will not have all of the types of distress listed for any particular rating. They may have only one or two types.
