Kenmore council to weigh 2027-2032 transportation improvement plan at June 8 hearing

The June 8, 2026 City Council agenda scheduled a public hearing and adoption vote on Resolution No. 26-448, adopting Kenmore's 2027-2032 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Plan 1.

What the records say

The agenda for the June 8, 2026 City Council meeting listed a public hearing on Proposed Resolution No. 26-448, which would adopt the City of Kenmore's 2027-2032 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) 1. Engineering Director John Vicente was listed as the presenter 1. The record includes the resolution text, which states the plan is attached as Exhibit A, and the full TIP project list with funding tables 1. Named projects include new sidewalks and bike lanes on several corridors (80th Ave NE, 84th Ave NE, 73rd Ave NE, NE 181st St, NE 192nd St, NE 175th St, 65th Ave NE, 67th Ave NE, NE 150th St, NE 155th St, Simonds Rd, Arrowhead Dr), the Lower Swamp Creek bridge replacement, the NE 61st Ave sidewalk replacement Phase 2, two roundabouts (61st Ave NE/NE 193rd St and 80th Ave NE/NE 192nd St), and citywide ADA and pavement-preservation programs 1. The agenda bill describes the TIP as a planning document that is not fiscally constrained, and notes that projects with unsecured funding would require additional local or federal/state money to proceed 1. Analysis: adoption would set the city's transportation priorities for 2027-2032, but because this is a pre-meeting agenda, the record does not establish whether the Council adopted the resolution on June 8 1.
