Description

A resolution appointing the members of the Transportation Funding Task Force.

Summary

Seattle legislation establishes a Transportation Funding Task Force to develop long-term funding and infrastructure strategies under the 2024 Transportation Levy. By December 2027, the task force must recommend policies and funding tools, including possible transportation impact fees, to improve bridges, arterial pavement, and missing sidewalks. The targets include maintaining specified bridge condition ratings, reaching a Pavement Condition Index of 80 for arterial streets, and completing priority sidewalk gaps by 2029. The task force includes representatives of neighborhoods, businesses, accessibility and mobility advocates, labor, developers, and transportation experts. Its appointments require Council confirmation, with monthly meetings beginning in October 2026 and progress reports every six months.
