related programs of the Washington State Department of Ecology, Washington State Department of Transportation, and the Washington State Energy Office. State Responsibilities and the Future of CTR Law In addition to the Guidelines developed for local jurisdictions, the Task Force will continue to review and recommend local and state actions that will help achieve CTR goals. The Task Force intends to: 1. Develop specific Guidelines for employee parking management programs at new and existing employment sites, including employee parking supply and charges in the Model Employer Programs report. 2. Review local experience with changes in parking demand, as reported in local jurisdiction annual progress reports. Incorporate findings and recommend revisions to these Guidelines in the Task Force's December 1995 report to the Legislature. 3. Ask the State Legislature to amend the 1990 Local Option Commercial Parking Tax to include non-commercial parking sites, if there is insufficient progress toward achieving CTR goals by 1995. The Task Force may bring this issue to the Legislature earlier, if appropriate. 4. Plan and fund, in partnership with local jurisdictions, educational workshops and informational materials designed to increase employer awareness about parking cost and its influence on mode choice. These information materials should be part of the orientation program for employer senior managers, and the training for ETCs and employer program developers. Explore the use of Congestion Management and Air Quality Improvement Program funds available through the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act. 5. Investigate aspects of the Uniform Building Code (UBC), fire codes, zoning codes, and other regulations that increase the costs of providing covered bicycle parking and lockers/showers. Recommend state and/or local changes that would allow these facilities to be provided in a cost effective manner without compromising the integrity of the regulations. 37
