PORT OF SEATTLE MEMORANDUM COMMISSION AGENDA STAFF BRIEFING Item No. 9c Date of Meeting March 13, 2012 DATE: March 5, 2012 TO: Tay Yoshitani, Chief Executive Officer FROM: Mike Merritt, Manager, Puget Sound/State Government Relations Geraldine Poor, Manager, Regional Transportation SUBJECT: Port of Seattle Regional Transportation - Commission Discussion Over the past two decades, the Port of Seattle has engaged in many successful transportation partnerships with local communities, and our state and federal governments, to improve capacity, safety and efficiency of the region's transportation system. A robust transportation system is vital to the Port's regional, national and international business partners. Seattle's growth as a leading international gateway depends on efficient movement of people and goods on our streets, highways and railways, as congestion drives up costs and limits business growth. Communities throughout the state depend on the Port for transportation of exports to markets around the world. The Century Agenda strategic planning emphasizes the importance of an efficient transportation system to achieve regional economic growth. Without system capacity and efficient access, the region risks losing jobs and economic opportunity to ports making focused investments in highway and rail improvements. BRIEFING OUTLINE: At today's briefing, Port staff will present an overview of regional transportation investments and partnerships. The Commission will discuss the Port's priority for regional transportation and the need for investments to support our seaport, airport and real estate operations.
