EVERETT CITY COUNCIL AGENDA I TEM COVER SHEET - PROJECT TITLE: Agreement with the Boeing Briefing COUNCIL BILL# Company and the Proposed Action Originating Department City for the Direct Count Consent Contact Person Ryan Sass Program X Action Phone Number 425.257-8942 First Reading FOR AGENDA OF February 27,2019 Second Reading Third Reading Public Hearing Budget Advisory Initialed by: Department Head Administration Council President Location Preceding Action Attachments Department(s)Approval Boeing Everett Site Program Agreement Public Works,Planning, SEPA Decision Addendum Legal Amount Budgeted -0- Expenditure Required -0- Account Number(s): Budget Remaining -0- Additional Required -0- DETAILED SUMMARY STATEMENT: Traffic impact analysis studies typically rely on trip generation data sets obtained from multiple•previous studies of similar facilities. The Boeing facility in Everett, as a unique world-class manufacturing and engineering facility,.does not fit available data sets for trip generation estimates. The deployment of real time trip counting technology enables us to determine actual trip generation on a continuous basis. • The Boeing Company and the City acknowledge the need for an updated system to pay for actual traffic impacts as the Boeing Facility changes and grows. Implementation of the Direct Count Program will better track and mitigate for actual increases in trip generation exceeding the amount for which Boeing has already paid mitigation for. It is anticipated that this system will provide for a more effective means for Boeing and the City to manage and mitigate traffic impacts while allowing for employment growth rather than the current system based on limiting numbers of employees and parking stalls. RECOMMENDATION(Exact action requested of Council): Authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement with the Boeing Company for the Direct Count Program 81
