New automated speed camera
at Codiga Park
Many cars and trucks pick up speed coming
down thei29th Street bridge, creating unsafe
conditions. To address this, a new speed
enforcement camera has been installed at
Codiga Park in Allentown. Signage was also
installed to warn motorists that the area is
now a speed camera enforced zone. This
gives drivers the opportunity to slow down
and avoid a photo enforcement ticket, while
reducing speeding in the area.
Warning letters will be issued for a 3o-day
period beginningJune i. After that, the fine
per violation is $145. Citations will be delivered
by mail to the vehicle's registered owner and
payments can be made online, by phone, mail,
or in -person through the Tukwila Municipal
Court. A court hearing may be requested to
challenge the infraction or reduce the penalty.
Photo enforcement tickets are treated
as a parking ticket and will not impact an
individual's driving record or insurance..
The People's Project — Your Idea. Your Voice. Your Tukwila.
$50,000 is on the table—andyouhelp decide how it's spent.
The People's Project is Tukwila's first -ever Participatory Budgeting
(PB) initiative, giving residents the power to decide how to invest in
their community. We've set aside $5o,000 to fund small, resident -
driven projects like benches, water fountains, public art, or safety
improvements and we want your ideas
Want to help decide how Tukwila spends $5o,000 on community
improvements? Sign up for email updates, including your interest in
serving on the resident -led steering committee. Get notified when
it's time to apply to the steering committee, submit ideas, vote, and
see project updates. Those selected to take part in a resident -led
committee will help design a fair, inclusive process for collecting
ideas and holding a public vote.
