"Roads & Transit Plan" the focus of next Town Hall Meeting

The draft "Roads & Transit Plan" will be the focus of the next King County Council Town Hall Meeting. The plan is a comprehensive set of investments in freeways, light-rail and commuter-rail, HOV lanes, park-and-ride lots, and express and local bus service that together would constitute the single largest investment ever made to improve our regional transportation system.

This Council Town Hall Meeting is part of the Roads & Transit Plan's public review process. The Council must decide later this year whether to place the final plan on the November ballot.

The meeting will be held at Spirit of Washington Event Center, 233 Burnett Ave S, Renton, WA 98055, on Monday, March 12. The public is invited to meet face-to-face with King County Councilmembers at an informal reception starting at 6:00 p.m. The program will run from 6:30-8:30 p.m.

The County Council is a regional government committed to engaging King County residents in their local communities. Throughout the year, the Council holds local Town Hall Meetings on issues of public importance. Community members have the opportunity to meet Councilmembers, be briefed by local and regional experts, and provide public testimony.

Each Town Hall is a special meeting of the Council’s Committee-of-the-Whole (COW), the only standing committee on which all nine members serve. COW considers legislation and policy issues of interest to the entire council.

Recent town hall meetings have been held in West Seattle, Carnation, Auburn, Shoreline, Renton, Seattle, Bellevue, and Enumclaw.
