Adopted by San Bernardino County voters in 1989, measure I is a major source of revenue for transportation improvements in the City of Ontario. This 20-year half-cent sales tax has provided more than $14 million for Ontario''s streets and roads during the first 10 years. Local officials make decisions about the allocation of these funds.
Additional Measure I funds -- a total of $406 million -- have been pooled by all of the cities and unincorporated areas in the valley region of San Bernardino County. These pooled funds support freeway improvements, Metrolink trains, Omnitrans subsidies for elderly and disabled riders, major streets that serve as transportation arteries, ridesharing programs, landscaping and traffic management. Measure I clearly is working for the City of Ontario. |
