PREAMBLE:
King County is made up of expansive bodies of water that touch a growing number of communities and employment centers.  Years ago, a mosquito fleet of small passenger ferries was used to move people and goods throughout the region.  In recent years, as traffic congestion has become an increasing problem, the idea of again looking to passenger ferries as a viable transportation option has become more attractive.  
As the population of the Puget Sound region continues to grow, so will the pressure on our transportation system.  By expanding the set of transportation choices to include passenger ferries, King County can prepare for continued population and economic growth and address the quality of life issues related to managing traffic congestion and its impact on our environment.  The passenger ferry needs are described more extensively in the operations, capital and finance plan for the King County Ferry District as prepared by the IBI Group for the Ferry District Governing Board.
Pursuant to chapter 36.54 RCW, the metropolitan King County council unanimously created the countywide King County Ferry District through Ordinance 15739 in April 2007 with the intent of providing passenger ferry service to various parts of the county.  
The King County Ferry District intends to contract with King County to have King County provide, manage and operate marine transportation services on behalf of the ferry district.  Such services are likely to include operations and maintenance activities as well as undertaking capital improvements.  
Separate funds are required for the King County marine division operating and capital programs.  This is necessary to provide for the receipt of revenues and the disbursement of expenditures for the provision, management, administration, maintenance and operation of passenger ferry services by King County as envisioned by planning documents developed for the Ferry District and as may be provided for in agreements between King County and the King County Ferry District.
      BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
      NEW SECTION.  SECTION 1.  There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 4.08 a new section to read as follows:

      B.  The director of the department of transportation, or its successor agency, shall be the fund manager.
      C.  The purpose of this fund is to provide for the revenues to and expenditures by King County, on behalf of the King County Ferry District, as established in Ordinance 15739, in performance of services associated with the operating functions of the district.
      NEW SECTION.  SECTION 2.  There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 4.08 a new section to read as follows:
      A.  There is hereby created the King County marine division capital fund.  This fund shall be a first tier fund as described in this chapter.
      B.  The director of the department of transportation, or its successor agency, shall be the fund manager.
