Having heard from opponents before Moraga's storm drain election that there was no need for a new revenue stream, I found the June 13 budget report by the administrative services director interesting. In his report to the Moraga Town Council he said that there is an annual shortfall of $400,000 in funding to keep the condition of the streets at its current level, and there is an annual shortfall in funding the stormwater program of $542,000.
"A revenue source will need to be identified in the future to address the town's aging infrastructure," he concluded. His full report is available on the town's website: moraga.ca.us.
