RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Adopt a Resolution approving the Measure "C" Renewal County Transportation Expenditure Plan as the appropriate strategy for expenditure of Measure ''C" Revenues raised between the years 2027 and 2057 for transportation improvements in Fresno County, including the 15 cities and all unincorporated areas.

Measure "C" is the local 1/2 percent sales tax for transportation purposes, which will expire in June 2027 if not renewed by voters.
