State fuel and sales taxes fund Kern economic roads
Kern COG notes fuel tax of 18 cents per gallon and 7.25 percent sales tax on fuel, with 11 cents for highway upkeep and 7 cents for local road work. No major tax increases since the 1990s, reducing buying power and squeezing Regional Transportation Improvement Program funding. Executive Director Ron Brummett warns congestion and deterioration will grow until a structural deficit is fixed or alternative funding found.
