Title

AN ORDINANCE to adopt the King County department of transportation, road services division six year (2016 - 2021) capital program, in accordance with K.C.C. 4A.100.030, to serve as the county's adopted 2016 annual road plan in accordance with RCW 36.81.130 and to serve as the county's adopted comprehensive transportation program in accordance with RCW 36.81.121.

Body

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

1.  K.C.C. 4A.100.010 requires King County adopt a biennial budget for such county funds as the council may determine and conduct a midbiennium review and modification for the second year of the biennium.

2.  K.C.C. 4A.100.030 requires each county agency to include its capital projects in a six-year capital improvement program ("CIP") for the fiscal period and the next two fiscal periods.

3.  In conjunction with the 2015/2016 biennial budget process, the road services division of the department of transportation prepared and the council adopted the road services division's six-year CIP for 2015-2020.

4.  This ordinance approves the road services division CIP for the six year period of 2016-2020 and includes modifications to the planned expenditures for 2016 that were included in the adopted 2015-2020 road services division CIP.

5.  RCW 36.81.121 requires that before the adoption of a roads division budget, the council must adopt a comprehensive transportation program for the next ensuing six calendar years.  The purpose of the statute is to ensure that each county shall perpetually have available advanced plans looking to the future for not less than six years as a guide in carrying out a coordinated transportation program.

6.  RCW 36.81.130 requires the council to adopt an annual road plan.  Any appropriations contained in a county road budget are void if the county's annual road plan is not adopted before such appropriations.  

7.  The executive anticipates that as part of the midbiennium review there will be modifications proposed to the roads division's capital budget for the second year of the biennium.  Those modifications will include supplemental appropriations for fiscal year 2016.

8.  Attachment A to this ordinance is the roads division six year CIP for 2016-2021.

                     BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:

                     SECTION 1.  The approved road services division 2016-2021 Capital Improvement Program shall serve as the county's comprehensive transportation program for the period of 2016 through 2021.

                     SECTION 2.  The planned expenditures for those projects in fiscal year 2016 as reflected in the approved road services division 2016-2021 Capital Improvement Program shall serve as the county's final road plan for fiscal year 2016.

                     SECTION 3.  The road services division 2016-2021 Capital Improvement Program, which is Attachment A to this ordinance, is hereby approved.
