INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM

Transportation Committee
FROM: Jack Pace, DCD Director
DATE: October 14, 2011
SUBJECT: Commute Trip Reduction Program Information
ISSUE
Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Program activities and WSDOT funding.
BACKGROUND
Below is a summary of the current Commute Trip Reduction Program in Tukwila:
CTR Coordinator is primarily funded by WSDOT to manage CTR programs of
employers within the City of Tukwila.
23 Tukwila employers (including the City of Tukwila) provide CTR programs for
their employees. The number of affected CTR sites is updated annually by the
City based on state criteria. This compares to the City of Renton with 23 affected
employers, the City of Kent with 30 affected employers, Federal Way has 10
affected employers and the City of SeaTac has 17 affected employers.
Employers are required to complete Annual CTR Program Reports and biennial
measurement surveys for progress toward goals.
CTR Program is mandated by state and operational since 1991.
The CTR Ordinance was updated and adopted in 2008 with creation of Tukwila's
Local CTR Plan and Growth Transportation Efficiency Center (GTEC) adopted.
The City of Tukwila provides numerous services to assist CTR- affected and non
affected employers with implementation of their CTR Programs, including the following:
Technical assistance given to employers on statewide promotions such as Wheel
Options and other incentive programs such as "Bike to Work
Annual report and survey training and Employee Transportation Coordinator
training.
Personalized assistance for coordinators and employees at all employer
worksites.
Additionally, the City of Tukwila works closely with local agencies such as King County,
the cities of Seattle, Renton, Kent, SeaTac and Federal Way, the Washington State
Department of Transportation, the Puget Sound Regional Council, and others to
coordinate, implement, and promote trip reduction activities and provide policy direction.
The City also provided lead agency direction for the state Rideshareon line. com project
completed for a three city area during April -June 2011.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
The City of Tukwila is an affected employer and is required to meet the requirements of
the CTR law. The current 2011 survey results demonstrate an increase in the drive
alone rate from 77% to 80 The 2013 goal is 69
The CTR Efficiency Act requires tasks for the City of Tukwila:
Local CTR Plan will be updated in 2012 for submission to Puget Sound Regional
Council for approval and will include review of Comprehensive plan additions as
outlined in Local CTR Plan. The updated plan will then be submitted to the state
for their approval.
In September, the City worked with King County Metro to negotiate a renewal of the
ORCA Business Passport program for City of Tukwila employees. Administration opted
to not renew the ORCA cards due to increased costs of the program and the required
purchase of ORCA cards for all eligible employees (330 employees). The pricing for
King County suburbs was determined by all participating agencies, Community Transit,
Pierce Transit, Sound Transit, King County Metro, Everett Transit, Kitsap Transit and
Washington State Ferries with per pass cost at $259.00. Tukwila will explore other
approaches to encourage trip reduction by city employees.
DISCUSSION
WSDOT has provided the funding source for the CTR program through an allocation
process since 1993. The GCA -6892 contract recently signed by the Mayor for 2011-
2013 is essentially a renewal of previous allocation contracts. The contract is for
$74,205.00 and will fund Maggi Lubov's position for the biennium. The contract was
signed prior to Council authorization because we were advised by WSDOT that due to
the tenuous budget situation, if the funds were not obligated that day they might be
reallocated by the state. Staff is now bringing this contract to Council for approval.
WSDOT will also award federal grant funding for an eleven -month Rideshareonline.com
project that will focus on South King County cities with Tukwila acting as the lead
agency. The $100,000.00 in funding will completely cover the costs for full time staff to
implement the project. The contract will be an amendment to the WSDOT 2011 -2013
GCA -6892 contract and will be brought to a future Committee meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to approve the WSDOT funding contract for the CTR Program in
the amount of $74,205.00 and consider this item at the October 24, 2011 Committee of
the Whole meeting and subsequent November 7, 2011 Regular Meeting.

II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Commute Trin Reduction Prop-ram
Staff is seeking Council approval of a Washington State Department of Transportation funding contract in
the amount of $74,205, for the City's Commute -Trip Reduction (CTR) Program. Specifically, this contract
primarily funds the City's CTR Coordinator for the biennium. This includes but is not limited to:
administrative work, progress reports, implementation plans and coordination with regional transportation
planning organizations.
Due to an immediate and unforeseen need for the Washington State Department of Transportation to
_Y�7 obligate these funds in a short time frame, Mayor Haggerton signed the aforementioned contract on
September 27, 2011. The City Council still has the ability to act in a different manner should they choose
not to accept the contract funding. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 24 COW
FOR DISCUSSION.
B. Ordinance: Comorate Boundary Revision
Staff is seeking Council approval to incorporate, via ordinance, a small island of land located between the
cities of Tukwila and SeaTac which is currently unincorporated King County.
This request was initiated by King County in an attempt to create logical jurisdictional boundaries. In this
particular situation, the west half of the 53` Avenue South right -of -way is currently the responsibility of
King County (unincorporated). After discussions between King County and the cities of SeaTac and
Tukwila, is appears that full control of 53` Avenue South would be best served in the full jurisdiction of
Tukwila.
This boundary revision is within corporate limits, and is not required to go through the boundary review
process. This right -of -way exchange can take place through appropriate ordinances in Tukwila and King
County. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 24 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
III. SCATBd
The Committee reviewed and briefly discussed the September 20 SCATBd meeting summary and the October
18 meeting agenda. In response to an inquiry made by Committee Chair Hernandez, staff stated the City has no
conflicting projects that would interfere with the Light Rail TIGER III Grant Application. INFORMATION
ONLY.
