Measure L is the Transportation Ordinance and Expenditure Plan approved by Stanislaus County voters on November 8, 2016. The measure raised the sales tax in Stanislaus County on April 1, 2017, by one-half cent for a total period of 25 years to improve our local streets and roads, improve connectivity and reduce congestion.

Measure L includes strong taxpayer safeguards to ensure that the projects and programs approved by the voters are funded and delivered. A Citizens Oversight Committee has been created to provide an enhanced level of accountability for expenditures made under the Plan to ensure that all voter mandates are carried out and that the financial integrity and performance of the program is maintained.

Should you have any questions, please contact the City of Patterson Engineering Department at 209-895-8033.

The remainder of the project is projected to be completed by the end of August 2023.

Although roads will remain open, we realize that the construction of this project may
interfere with some of your daily activities, and we will do our very best to minimize
disruptions. Those affected directly by delays and disruption of services, will be given
notices 5 days in advance.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.
