About ICLTA

The ICLTA is represented by members of local cities and the County of Imperial. The adoption of Measure D places Imperial County as a whole further ahead for allocation of state dollars for transportation improvements, as these funds can be used alone or as a match for other State and federal transportation funds.

Within the allocation of funding; 92% of the funds collected go to the cities and County of Imperial to pay for critical road repair projects, 5% is targeted for regional highway projects, 2% for transit projects and 1% for administration. These funds make the many of the road repairs possible for local cities and the County. Since its inception in 1989 through 2006, Measure D has provided for over $105 million dollars for transportation improvements.

Measure D requires a board authority for governance, and a Local Taxpayers Supervisory Oversight Committee which has been established to oversee the use of funds.
