VALUATION THRESHOLD.
[DSA-AC] An annually adjusted, dollar-amount figure used in part to determine the extent of required path of travel upgrades. The baseline valuation threshold of $50,000 is based on the January 1981, “ENR US20 Cities” Average Construction Cost Index (CCI) of 3372.02 as published in Engineering News Record, McGraw Hill Publishing Company. The current valuation threshold is determined by multiplying the baseline valuation threshold by a ratio of the current year’s January CCI to the baseline January 1981 CCI.
In accordance with the 2016 California Building Code Chapter 2 definition of VALUATION THRESHOLD, the 2019 valuation threshold is $166,157.00 and will be updated again in January 2020.
The annual valuation threshold is based on the January 1981 threshold of $50,000.00 as adjusted using the ENR 20 Cities Construction Cost Index, and as published by Engineering News-Record, McGraw-Hill Publishing Company, for January of each year.

ETA Editor's Note
Calculating the Valuation Threshold
• McGraw-Hill US20 Cities construction cost index for January of the current year
• Divided by 3372.02 (US20 Cities index for January of 1981) = X
• X times $50,000 = CA valuation threshold
