The public hearing is proposed to be held on June 21, 2021 during the City Council Meeting. T he TIP is a multiyear planning tool and document for the development of transportation facilities within the City and does not represent a financial commitment by the City. Once the TIP is approved, projects are budgeted and funded through the City’s biennial budget. The T IP sets priorities for the allocation of secured and unsecured funding and is a prerequisite of most grant programs. Staff also uses the TIP to coordinate future transportation projects with needed utility improvements. T he projects and programs identified in the TIP that increase the capacity of the transportation system to address growth and development provide the basis for the City’s transportation impact fee program. Projects must also be included in the T IP to be eligible for state and federal grant funding. RCW 35.77.010 requires that the TIP is amended by June 30 each year. A summary of the proposed changes was presented at City Council study session on May 10, 2021. NEXT STEPS: T he public hearing and adoption are scheduled for the June 21, 2021 City Council meeting.

Background for Motion: This ordinance reinstates a 1% allocation, from the total 10% Utility Tax assessed on City utilities, to Arterial Street Preservation. The intent of the 1% was inadvertently excluded in the prior ordinance. Background Summary: Prior to 2020, City Code assessed a 6% utility tax on its city owned utilities to go into the General Fund plus an additional 1% to be dedicated to the Arterial Street Preservation Fund. During 2020’s pandemic, Council adopted a budget amendment and corresponding Ordinance No. 6785 which amended the Utility Tax Code. This amendment diverted the 1% dedicated towards Arterial Street Preservation into the General Fund through December 31, 2020. During the 2021/2022 biennial budget process the Council adopted a utility rate increase effective January 1, 2021 that would adjust the tax rate on city owned utilities f rom 6% to 10% and continue an additional 1% to Arterial Street Preservation. Inadvertently, the 1% language dedicated to Arterial Street Preservation was removed from that most recent code revision. Ordinance No. 6822 is to reinstate the 1% to Arterial Street Preservation that was mistakenly excluded in the prior ordinance.
