The half-cent road maintenance fund provides revenue for transportation projects throughout the Pinal County.
The county’s half-cent road maintenance fund was originally passed in 1986 and renewed in 2005.
“This local funding is used to preserve and build our roads throughout our region. This fund is the only funding for our Transportation Improvement and Maintenance Program,” the Pinal County’s website stated. “TIMP is where Pinal County residents can submit roadway improvement recommendations that go before the Transportation Advisory Committee, which develops five-year transportation plans.”
The dedicated funding is set to expire at the end of 2026.
