I -405 Proiect The three representatives from WSDOT reported on the current status of the I -405 project improvement. The nickel increase in gas tax passed by the 2003 Legislature will provide funding for improving the I- 405 /SR 167 interchange, starting with an extra lane from SR 181 in Tukwila to the interchange. A lane from the north going south on I -405 will also be added for a short distance. The nickel does not include enough funding to do all that needs to be done to improve I -405. It is hoped a Regional Transportation Improvement District (RTID) tax will be passed by voters to increase funding for projects like this. RTID may be put on the ballot this November. There is already pressure to move the I -405 project funds to other SR 167 projects that are also under funded. Pam suggested and the Committee agreed to send a letter to SKCTBD urging support for the I -405 project. One strength of the I -405 project is that it has been studied and is ready to go, while the SR- 167 project still needs to be studied first. Costs for the SR 167 range from $800,000 -$1.2 b. The Committee next considered the memorandum of understanding. It lays out the ground rules for the negotiation of this and other projects. An advisory decision process was shown, with involvement by a wide number of interests and people. Joan thought the memo laid a good background for now, with more specific information coming later in the process. Joe was concerned about what will happen as members drop out and are replaced in the long -term process. Stacy said the memo of understanding will continue to guide the process, so it can't be affected by personnel changes. Pam caught an editing error, and asked about bus rapid transit, which is provided for in the list of projects for the master plan. Joan asked about pedestrian considerations, and was assured they are well provided for. Recommend memo of understanding and report on I -405 nroiect to COW. 2. Renamine of Saxon Drive Costco currently has its address on Saxon Drive. They feel that because they are not on Andover East, they need better addressing to help people find them. To that end, they would like to change the name of Saxon drive to Costco Drive. Because Saxon is a private street, it does not require a resolution to re -name the street, but a resolution would leave a paper trail for the city's records, and it holds the City harmless for the change. Costco has agreed to pay for new signs. The Committee members asked if Saxon was an historic name, but were told no one had been able to find any reference to the Saxon name Jon noted that the addressing of Costco was off; it is now listed as being in the 1100's, when it should logically be in the 500's. Recommend resolution to -COW. 3. Adoption of the 2004 Standard Specifications WSDOT and the Washington Chapter of the American Public Works Association publish a book of considerable size containing the technical s standards that need to be used for any public projects using federal funds for transportation projects. The City needs to adopt the 2004 version of the Plan in order to be eligible for federal grants. Pain suggested some changes to improve the ordinance. Recommend to COW.
