The work will also include analyzing transit use around the stations to inform integration of multi-modal improvements and evaluation of parking improvement options at the stations. The scope also includes the development and implementation of an external engagement strategy, including public engagement activities for targeted outreach to underserved communities in the project area.

Rogoff, Chief Executive Officer Subject: Proposed Budget for Calendar Year 2021 VICE CHAIRS Dow Constantine None of us began 2020 expecting a pandemic and a recession. This has been King County Executive a year like none other, and we are all humbled by what has taken place and Paul Roberts Everett Councilmember the uncertainty that lies ahead. Nonetheless, with the Board’s guidance we are taking these new realities head-on to ensure that Sound Transit remains a healthy, resilient agency that delivers for the public now and into the BOARD MEMBERS future. Nancy Backus Auburn Mayor At the beginning of the year, we thought our greatest challenge would be David Baker Connect 2020. Through 11 weeks of construction, we created Link’s first Kenmore Mayor branch line, forging the connections from International District/Chinatown Claudia Balducci Station to the Eastside, while keeping all stations open. Our talented and King County Council Chair dedicated staff exemplified our core value of passenger focus, and each Bruce Dammeier Sound Transit staff member at every level of the organization served as an Pierce County Executive Ambassador to assist our riders with navigating the service disruption. Jenny Durkan Seattle Mayor In the early weeks of March as Connect 2020 construction was winding Debora Juarez down, the threat of COVID-19 was rapidly becoming apparent.

Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.
