alignment with Council priorities, and notable community impacts. Each project snapshot includes a
clear problem statement, intended outcomes, and key progress milestones.
Projects included in this presentation span the following categories:
•Parks: River access and ecological improvements at Tukwila Community Center
•Water: Replacement of aging water mains on S 149th/150th to enhance reliability and fire flow
