BACKGROUND On May 2, 2022, Council approved a contract with Fehr & Peers to update the City's Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan. Included in the scope of work is the development of a Road Safety Plan, which is necessary for Tukwila to adopt to remain competitive for future grants, as well as comply with the State's Target Zero campaign to reduce accidents. On August 1, 2022, Council authorized staff to submit an application to the SS4A program to fund the development of a city-wide Road Safety Plan. The SS4A program funds projects that significantly reduce or eliminate roadway fatalities and serious injuries through safety action plan development and implementation focused on all users. DISCUSSION The City of Tukwila was notified on January 1, 2023 that we received the full grant award for $200,000 to develop a Road Safety Plan component of the Transportation Element. The grant contract is still being developed, but staff will submit it to the City Attorney for review prior to submitting it to the Mayor for signature. By approving the award now, it will allow staff to move forward with the Road Safety Plan quickly once the contract is received. FINANCIAL IMPACT The City has been awarded $200,000 from the SS4A program. A local City match of $50,000 is required. The project budget is sufficient to cover the match requirement, which will be provided through Concurrency Test Fees. As the Transportation Element is required by the Department of Community Trade and Economic Development, this grant will significantly lessen the financial burden of the on the general fund.
