The city has created a citywide transportation benefit zone as part of the GMA Comprehensive Plan's Transportation Concurrency requirements to provide a source of funds for transportation improvements necessary to support new development.

This program supports the planning required to determine appropriate fees to charge as part of the mitigation process, to adjust the fee due to transportation plan changes and other factors affecting the fees as a funding source and to monitor the funds collected.

Management of the transportation concurrency and mitigation programs is an integral part of planning transportation improvements, ensuring new development pays an appropriate amount of the costs, and level of service (LOS) is maintained or enhanced as required by the Growth Management Act (GMA) to allow new development to occur.

LOS is an operational analysis rating system commonly used in traffic engineering to measure the effectiveness of the operating conditions of two-lane highways, multi-lane highways, arterials, signalized intersections, and stop-controlled intersections.

Schedule

This is an ongoing program.

Budget

$250,000 programmed through 2017.
