Local Income Tax: An Evolving Resource, Andrew O. Mouser, Tom Dermody
Purdue Road School
Local income tax (LIT) has become an increasingly important resource for Indiana communities. Each year, many Indiana counties adopt new or reallocate existing LIT rates to meet ever-changing needs. The 2023 legislative session added additional LIT flexibility for jails, EMS, fire protection, courts, and other needs. A new LIT rate may free up funding for roads, but getting it adopted may require cooperation among the county and its municipalities. Join us for a discussion.

Michigan's Inventory-Based Rating System For Unpaved Roads, Peter Torola
Michigan's Inventory-Based Rating System For Unpaved Roads, Peter Torola
Purdue Road School
The current rating systems for unpaved roads lack stability and reliability and, therefore, provide little benefit as project- or network-level metrics. Since many of these systems are derived from paved-road assessment systems, they focus heavily on surface distresses rather than road width, drainage, and other features. This session presents the Inventory-Based Rating System as a stable and implementable method of condition assessment for unpaved roads, without the focus on surface distresses.
