VERSION 2 1 3 On page 1, beginning on line 6, strike everything through page25,line 545, and insert: ,'PREAMBLE: 4 5 Despite continued fiscal challenges created by the Great Recession and an 6 ongoing structural gap - caused by revenue growth that is slower than 7 inflation - King County continues to provide critical services for its I residents through reforms, reorganization and technology. But without 9 action by the federal and state government, our public safety, 10 transportation and public health infrastructure will continue to erode along t1. with the quality of life these services provide. T2 This budget makes necessary spending cuts to balance the county budget. 13 We have chosen these cuts based on our priorities and in away to do the T4 least amount of harm while still maintaining suffrcient levels of reserves to 15 maintain the county's AAA credit rating' T6 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COTINTY: T7 SECTION 1, Findings: The council makes the following findings of fact: I 18 A. King County government is responsible for providing a variety of services to 19 all residents of the county. These include: regional services, such as criminal justice, 20 public health, wastewater treatment, solid waste and transit; subregional services through 21 contracts with many suburban cities for police protection, jail services and support for 22 court services; and local services to unincorporated areas, such as sheriff protection, 23 support for agriculture, roads, surface water management, local parks and land use 24 regulation. 25 B. Under the King County Charter, the metropolitan King County council sets 26 policy and adopts budgets for the county. This is the first complete biennial budget for 27 the county at just over $9 billion with a $1.5 billion general fund. 28 C. Fiscal restraint and increasing efficiencies in internal services and operations 29 enable the council to focus this budget on services and programs that result in greater or 30 continued efficiencies and services and programs to ensure public safety, public health 31 and well-being. 32 Increased Services for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. 33 This budget funds a domestic violence unit in the King County sheriff’s office. This 34 includes detectives and community resource officers who specialize in working with 35 survivors of domestic violence. The council has been a strong supporter of funding 36 services for domestic violence programs for many years. This investment reaffirms that 37 commitment. The council also continues its support of legal aid and innovative housing 38 and counseling programs. 39 The County as a Local Government. This budget recognizes local government 40 needs by responding with more funds to the roads division, restoring planned cuts to code 2 41 abatement programs that enforce nuisance issues, and reducing planned fee increases for 42 building permits. 43 Prioritization of Public Health Infrastructure. In its budget proposal to the 44 county executive, Public Health – Seattle & King County proposed closing four public 45 health centers. Through community and local government partnerships, the county 46 budget temporarily maintains services at the Greenbridge, Federal Way, Auburn and 47 Northshore public health centers into the biennium. The council is encouraging further 48 exploration of long-term partnerships and revenue options and other delivery models for 49 public health services. 50 Providing Transit Service Countywide. This budget maintains current levels of 51 transit services. It also offers alternative transit services to right size service options and 52 help those communities most affected by recent service reductions. Additionally, the 53 council ensured that the transit system continues to be accessible to less affluent 54 segments of the population by implementing a low-income fare and increasing the 55 number of discounted tickets available for purchase by nonprofit agencies. 56 Fiscal responsibility: This budget continues to find efficiencies. Years of 57 council direction have yielded results through reductions in the rate of increases of our 58 overhead service costs. Every dollar saved through lower overhead and administrative 59 costs is another dollar that is available for direct services. Through partnership with the 60 county executive, the county has used business process improvements to lower costs. 61 Sufficient reserves in the county general fund are maintained and comprehensive 62 financial management practices in the county’s major funds are applied to maintain King 63 County's AAA bond rating. 3 64 SECTION 2. Effect of proviso or expenditure restriction veto. It is hereby 65 declared to be the legislative intent of the council that a veto of any proviso or 66 expenditure restriction that conditions the expenditure of a stated dollar amount or the use 67 of FTE authority upon the performance of a specific action by an agency shall thereby 68 reduce the appropriation authority to that agency by the stated dollar or FTE amount. 69 SECTION 3. The 2015-2016 Biennial Budget is hereby adopted and, subject to 70 the provisions set forth in this ordinance and the several amounts specified in this 71 ordinance or so much thereof as shall be sufficient to accomplish the purposes 72 designated, appropriations are hereby authorized to be distributed for salaries, wages and 73 other expenses of the various agencies and departments of King County, for capital 74 improvements and for other specified purposes for the fiscal period beginning January 1, 75 2015, and ending December 31, 2016, out of the following funds of the county named 76 and set forth in the following sections. 77 SECTION 4. The fund appropriations are sums to cover merit pay and labor 78 settlements. The county executive is authorized to distribute the required portions of 79 these monies among the affected positions in each operating fund effective January 1, 80 2015. In the event cost-of-living adjustments are greater than the appropriations 81 authorized in this ordinance, all budgets shall be augmented as required from moneys 82 available to the county not otherwise appropriated in that case. An ordinance shall be 83 transmitted by the executive to the council appropriating those funds by appropriation 84 unit. 4 85 SECTION 5.

  • Policy Brief
    Policy Brief Moving Toward More Accessible and Productive Transportation in the Puget Sound By Wendell Cox, Principal, Demographia (Wendell Cox Consultancy) October 2019 Key Findings 1. The overwhelming share of population and employment in the Puget Sound is outside the city of Seattle. Even with the city of Seattle’s unprecedented population and employment growth since 2010, a sizable majority of new residents and employment have located outside the city. 2. The Puget Sound region is dispersed, both in employment and residences. While downtown Seattle is the strongest Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) employment center and has experienced astounding growth since 2010, more than 85 percent of employment is outside downtown. 3. The “Amazon Boom” has brought unprecedented employment growth to downtown Seattle and seems unlikely to play as strong a role in the future. However, even with the “Amazon Boom,” nearly 60 percent of employment growth has been outside the city of Seattle since 2010. 4. Autos are used by more than two-thirds of commuters to work trip locations throughout the Puget Sound, with a three-quarters share outside the city of Seattle and just shy of a 50 percent share in the city of Seattle. 5. Transit serves a principally niche market, with 48 percent of the commuting to downtown Seattle, and a 9.3 percent share to the rest of the city. Only 3.5 percent of work trips to destinations in the rest of the Puget Sound are on transit. 6. Downtown dominates transit commuting. PSRC employment centers outside the city of Seattle exhibit transit commuting characteristics more reflective of suburban areas outside centers, with virtually no realistic potential for reducing vehicle miles through expanding transportation choices.

  • Making Transit Work on the Waterfront
    Southend Pathways Making transit work on the waterfront After the State Route 99 tunnel project is complete and the Columbia Street and Seneca Street ramps have been removed, Metro will need a fast, reliable transit pathway for buses to and from downtown Seattle to replace the connection provided today by the Alaskan Way Viaduct. We’re asking the City of Seattle to provide a continuous priority pathway for transit as part of its Central Waterfront Project, with all-day, two-way bus lanes on Alaskan Way from Dearborn Street to Columbia Street and Third Avenue. The city faces a challenge as it tries to meet the needs of competing interests on the waterfront—including ferry lines, parking, and business access. There are limited options for prioritizing bus riders on the waterfront. But this pathway is crucial to maintaining the speed and reliability of bus service for riders from southwest and northwest Seattle neighborhoods to, from, and through downtown Seattle. A fast, reliable pathway is essential to… Meet the needs of thousands of transit riders who rely on service in this corridor. • The viaduct carries 22,000 bus riders per day. This total is similar to those for Link light rail (27,000) and the E3 Busway in SODO (24,000) – two facilities where transit is prioritized. Maintain and grow ridership in this corridor. • Use of the RapidRide C and D Lines has grown significantly since they began service in fall 2012. C Line ridership is up 33%; D Line ridership is up 9%. • By 2016, Metro buses will carry an estimated 30,000 riders in and out of downtown on the new Alaskan Way surface street—a number equal to the anticipated number of vehicles making the same commute.

During operation, a large diameter tube allows for stacked deck configuration with shafts dropped to platform level (no station caverns). The extensive information has been compiled on innovative TBM tunneling projects such as the Barcelona Line 9, where the concept of continuous station has been used for the first time, stormwater management and roadway tunnel in Malaysia, where the floodwater bypass tunnel and the road tunnel are incorporated in a single bore tunnel.
