will allow for more flexibility, improve alignment and metrics, and update goals to reflect current Port
values.

Request document(s) included an agenda memorandum, presentation slides, and SPARC
environmental notes. 
Presenter(s): James Jennings, Director, Aviation Business and Properties; Adam Olson, Capital
Project Manager, and Heather Munden, Interim Construction Manager. 
The amount requested in this authorization was decreased to reflect caution about spending among
major carriers. However, carriers recognize the need for this project as pre-COVID-19 demand for
retail and dining space far exceeds current capacity. Completion of this project is estimated for 2027,
at which time air travel volumes are expected to recover. Continuing with this project now allows a
chance to catch up with demand. 
In addition to revenue-generating dining and retail space, the C1 project will include badly needed
community space like additional restrooms and nursing space, and a post-security meditation space. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 8c carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Bowman, Calkins, Felleman, Gregoire, Steinbrueck (5)
