Dear Seattle, Seattle is a more vibrant, connected city, thanks to the unprecedented progress made last year on Move Seattle Levy projects. This work is essential to making Seattle a place where your first choice is taking transit, biking, walking, or rolling; and you have safe, affordable alternatives to driving alone. As we encounter unforeseen challenges in 2020 that make delivering our transportation projects more complex, I remain impressed with our resiliency and hopeful in our ability to overcome any challenges we face together. I am pleased that this report shows remarkable progress toward transparent, reliable delivery of transportation projects. We met or exceeded almost every goal we set for ourselves in 2019. In December, we announced additional steps to making our streets even safer and to achieve our Vision Zero goal of ending traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030. We're carrying this priority into 2020, supported by Levy investments like our Vision Zero projects, Safe Routes to School, new sidewalk projects, and many more. I would like to thank Director Zimbabwe, staff, and crews at SDOT who are responsible for the great work collected in this report and thank the Levy Oversight Committee for their work keeping us accountable. We are building a city of the future where transit is your first choice, we have less climate pollution, and you have many safe, affordable, and accessible ways to get around. Thank you for your commitment to this future. Sincerely, Mayor Jenny A. Durkan Dear Seattle, At SDOT, our mission is to deliver an equitable transportation system that provides safe, dependable, affordable access to places and opportunities. Levy to Move Seattle funding enables us to meet key transportation delivery goals that advance this mission. 2019 was the biggest year to date for delivery of Levy projects; we invested $222M in projects that created better access to transit, made walking and biking routes safer, improved our sidewalks and busiest arterials, and enhanced the safety of our structures, like the Fairview Bridge. Our 2019 achievements are especially noteworthy given that we dealt with concurrent challenges last year, including the Alaskan Way Viaduct closure, the start of the 5-year "Seattle Squeeze," and an unprecedented series of major snowstorms in February. Through it all, we kept working to deliver on Levy commitments with a continued commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence. We continue to ensure downtown mobility and respond nimbly to ongoing citywide transportation changes. While SDOT is more committed than ever to delivering the Move Seattle Levy, at the time of this report's publication, we are all confronted by the significant and growing uncertainty that the COVID-19 crisis continues to foment. As we move into 2020, SDOT will evaluate deliverables and risks in the context of our shared public health crisis. Through our continued commitment to clear communication and transparency, we will report on any impacts during our 2020 Levy updates. We will continue to maximize Levy dollars and complete projects that improve infrastructure and support our collective vision for Seattle's future. Sincerely, Director Sam Zimbabwe PURPOSE This report is a regular update to the Move Seattle Levy Oversight Committee detailing SDOT spending and performance on Move Seattle programs. It is intended to help facilitate the role of the Committee in monitoring revenues, expenditures, and program and project implementation. HOW TO READ THIS REPORT On the following pages, you will find SDOT's 2019 Year in Review, including performance and financial summaries for all 30 Levy programs. A roll-up of performance is provided on pages 10- 11, followed by detailed summaries for all 30 programs. Appendices A and B summarize annual and overall Levy finances. TRACKING LEVY PROGRESS As you move through the report, you will see annual delivery totals for 2019 and cumulative delivery totals for each year since the start of the Levy. You will also see a symbol noting the status of each deliverable category for 2019. Status indicators represent a deliverable category performance against 2019 planned accomplishment. Planned accomplishment exceeded Planned accomplishment met 75-99% of planned accomplishment met Less than 75% of planned accomplishment met LEVY TO MOVE SEATTLE Approved by voters in November 2015, the 9- year, $930 million Levy to Move Seattle provides funding to improve safety for all travelers, maintain our streets and bridges, and invest in reliable, affordable travel options for a growing city. The Levy aims to take care of the basics, while also investing in the future with improvements to move more people and goods in and around a growing Seattle. The Levy provides roughly 30% of the City's transportation budget and replaced the 9-year $365 million Bridging the Gap Levy approved by voters in 2006.

This report provides detail on project delivery in year four of nine for the Levy to Move Seattle. In 2019, we delivered the most maintenance projects, safety enhancements, road paving, bike lanes, and spot improvements since the Levy's inception in 2016. As shown in the Performance Summary on page 10-11, 30 of 32 deliverables met or exceeded the annual planned accomplishment. These numbers reflect the robust evaluation carried out during the 2018 Levy Assessment at the direction of Mayor Durkan, as well as SDOT's early planning in 2019 that carefully evaluated schedules, risks, and other factors to create a realistic annual spend plan and planned accomplishments. In just one year, we: Built over 12 miles of bikeways, including important protected bike lane connections in the Center City Bike Network and neighborhood greenway routes; Built 6 Vision Zero corridor projects and began taking aggressive action towards our transportation safety goal; Repaved 35 lane miles of arterial streets, including delivery by both contractors and SDOT crews; Made 32 transit spot improvements including adding red paint to dedicated bus lanes; Built 48 blocks of new sidewalk and 29 Safe Routes to School projects; Started construction on Fairview Bridge Replacement; Reached 90% design on Madison RapidRide G Line and Delridge RapidRide H Line projects; Started construction on the Northgate Pedestrian/Bike Bridge; Added over 100 bike parking spaces, completing the 9-year Levy commitment to build 1,500 bike parking spaces with Levy funds; and Secured $9.9M in grants for Levy projects and programs. The achievements outlined in this report represent significant progress towards our 9-year Levy goals and show how SDOT used 2019 to get back on track with Levy delivery. We are looking ahead to 2020, as we prepare and move some of our largest projects including Delridge RapidRide H Line, and Madison RapidRide G Line for construction. THANK YOU, LEVY OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE Our commitment to transparency and accountability includes working closely with the Levy Oversight Committee. Our 2019 coordination with the Committee is summarized to the right. SDOT appreciates the time and service the Committee's volunteers dedicate to Levy oversight, particularly regarding their involvement in prioritizing 15 Neighborhood Street Fund (NSF) projects for funding during the 2019-2021 NSF program cycle. More information about the Levy Oversight Committee, including their 2019 summary can be found in Appendix D on page 60. 2019 Levy Oversight Committee coordination 9 Full Committee meetings 5 Subcommittee meetings 5 Reports prepared and presented 4 Briefing memos transmitted 11 Appointments or reappointments of committee members BUDGET SUMMARY SDOT began 2019 with an Adopted Budget for the Move Seattle portfolio, approved by City Council, of $284M. Accounting for $43M in carry-forward from 2018 and a net addition of $12M (including secured grants and partnerships), the Revised Budget ended at $339M. This represents the total funding available in 2019, including $103M of grants and partnerships, of which $54M was billed in 2019. EXPENDITURES SUMMARY In 2019, SDOT spent $111.7M in Move Seattle funds and $222.3M in all funds. As shown in Figure 1, this represents the highest spending since the Levy inception and shows the delivery ramp-up as we enter the middle years of the 9-year Levy. The leading expenditure programs in 2019, by Levy category, are listed on the following page. These expenditures represent substantial delivery in each program, and further delivery details are outlined in the Performance Summary on page 10-11. Through the end of 2019, Levy life-to-date spending totals $645.6M (all funds), or 34.5% of the $1.86B 9-year Levy portfolio. An updated spending forecast will be provided later in 2020 as part of the comprehensive Portfolio Status Update, see page 9. MOVE SEATTLE ALL FUNDS 2019 ADOPTED BUDGET $147.8M $284.1M 2019 REVISED BUDGET $145.0M $339.0M 2019 SPEND PLAN $100.7M $218.2M 2019 TOTAL SPEND, ACTUALS $111.7M $222.3M TOTAL SPENT TO DATE, LIFE OF LEVY $324.3M $645.6M *The City transitioned to a new Accounting System in 2018; on account of this transition, the billings of certain funds were adjusted throughout the year and resulted in modest end-of-year updates. These were rectified in 2019, updating 2018 year-end spending from $166M to $170M. Figure 1: Comparison of actual spending, year to date totals - ALL FUNDS Safe Routes $50.5M #5 Bicycle Safety $14.4M #4 Transportation Operations $11.4M Maintenance & Repair $75.4M #9 Arterial Roadway Maintenance $37.8M #13 Fairview Bridge $9.2M #12 Bridge Seismic Improvements $6.7M Congestion Relief $96.4M #28 Lander Overpass $27.9M #18 Multimodal Improvements $23.7M #25 New Sidewalks $18.5M SPEND PLAN & FINANCIAL RESULTS While the annual budget accounts for available funding, each year we go through a process to accurately predict our spending. In early 2019 and after a thorough review of schedules, risk, and context from past years, SDOT identified the 2019 spend plan at $218.2M (as shown in Figure 2, compared to actual expenses by quarter). Throughout the year, SDOT kept the Levy Oversight Committee and stakeholders informed on progress towards achieving this spend plan. Project delivery saw more progress than anticipated during 2019, with spending actuals representing 102% of the 2019 spend plan. Due to accelerating project schedules, 2019 was the first year we delivered above plan. Spending is a way to represent performance and show the progress being made to deliver Levy commitments. The 2019 spending at $222.3M against the $218.2M plan demonstrates how we are back on track with Levy delivery, as seen in the Performance Summary on page 10-11, and showcases our commitment to transparency and accountability. Most of the 30 Levy programs finished 2019 on track and are either slightly ahead of or slightly behind the spend goals due to factors such as legal appeals, inadequate construction bids, unforeseen design challenges, and contracting or permitting delays, which are described in more detail in specific program summaries. Further explanation of spending variance can be found in Appendix C on page57. Figure 2: 2019 spend plan ($218M) vs actual spending - ALL FUNDS DELIVERING OUR 9-YEAR COMMITMENTS Following the 2018 Levy assessment, which SDOT completed at the direction of Mayor Durkan, SDOT produced the Updated Workplan Report and improved transparency in progress reporting. The 2019 Annual Report showcases delivery and accomplishments, including cumulative Levy totals. As we move into 2020 and the halfway point of the 9-year Levy to Move Seattle, SDOT is preparing a Portfolio Status Update to forecast the delivery plan for the remaining four years of the Levy, including program delivery strategies and a funding outlook. We expect this will be a comprehensive update to chart progress and continued challenges, while upholding the same approach to transparency in overall program delivery. MEASURING PERFORMANCE During 2019, we heard feedback from the Levy Oversight Committee that our performance reporting has been focused on outputs, not outcomes. This is paired with a desire to understand whether the investments being made through the levy are the right ones to support the broader City goals for transportation. At the same time this annual report is being published, SDOT is also producing an update to the Moving the Needle Report, an SDOT performance measurement tool. We published the first-ever Moving the Needle performance report in 2017 and we are updating the study in 2020. That report aligns SDOT's business activities with our vision, mission, and core values in order to evaluate organizational performance against strategic goals. The 2020 update includes over 50 data-driven metrics, many of which are tied to the work that is funded through the Move Seattle Levy. The report also includes a series of deep dive "data stories" with interactive graphics and visualizations to help the reader understand and explore particularly important topics. Where possible we have incorporated outcome-based metrics that connect SDOT's accomplishments, both Levy-related and not, with successful outcomes. While it is often difficult to directly prove that improvements lead to positive societal outcomes, some connections seem apparent. One example of this is how the 117 safe routes to school projects constructed between 2016 and 2019 are almost certainly related to a remarkable 18% increase during this time of parents feeling that it is safe to let their children walk or bike to school (source: 2016 and 2018 SDOT Customer Satisfaction Survey results). This remains an ongoing area of work for SDOT and an area where we anticipate continuing engagement with the Levy Oversight Committee. The following is a summary of Levy deliverables in 2019 and cumulative totals since the beginning of the Levy. As described on page 2, Levy status indicators are used to indicate progress against each deliverable's annual planned accomplishment (defined in Appendix E), not the total 9-year Levy status. Deliverables are only counted when fully complete. Find more detailed information for each program in the 2019 Year In Review, pages 12-50.

Levy Commitment: Complete 12-15 safety corridor projects on our highest-crash streets This program achieved the annual planned accomplishment to build six Vision Zero projects in 2019. This work included building safety enhancements at every major intersection on Rainier Ave S from S Kenny St to S Henderson St; adding protected bike lanes, transit stop and crossing improvements, and signal adjustments on NE 65th St from Ravenna Blvd to 20th Ave NE; upgrading over 70 signal heads on Greenwood/Phinney Ave N for easier and safer walking and biking; and dozens of signal upgrades in the downtown core to support implementation of the Center City Bike Network. We continue our commitment to Vision Zero, enhancing safety and working towards our goal to end traffic deaths and serious injuries on city streets by 2030. Along with the infrastructure investments outlined here, and with support from Mayor Durkan, City Council, and local and regional partners, we are prepared for aggressive action to work towards our transportation safety goals in 2020.

This is unacceptable and we began taking aggressive action toward our transportation safety goal. In December 2019, Mayor Durkan announced a new speed limit setting policy and reductions to 25 MPH on nearly all arterials citywide. As 2019 came to a close, SDOT began planning and preparing to replace speed limit signs on over 300 miles of arterials across the city in 2020. In 2019, we established a new policy to give pedestrians more time to enter and cross a crosswalk before drivers get the green light, using leading pedestrian intervals (LPIs). The new policy requires we evaluate adding leading pedestrian intervals each time we build a new traffic signal or do other signal maintenance work, which creates an opportunity to make this upgrade. This has ramped up installation of LPIs. The Vision Zero program released a second Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Analysis Report (first published in 2017) in January 2020. This analysis enables Seattle to address safety through a systemic, proactive approach of cost-effective strategies to reduce risk system-wide and contains additional data since the original report. To learn more about Seattle's commitment to eliminate transportation-related serious injuries and deaths, check out the Vision Zero 2019 Update. Levy Commitment: Complete 9-12 Safe Routes to School projects each year along with safety education, improving walking and biking safety at every public school in Seattle. Complete projects within the first three years of the Levy in walk zones of the following elementary schools that have high levels of poverty: Bailey Gatzert, Martin Luther King Jr, West Seattle, Dunlap, Dearborn Park, Wing Luke, Northgate, Van Asselt, Emerson, Concord, Rainier View, and Roxhill. This program met the planned accomplishment in 2019. Among our goals were ten new 20 MPH flashing beacons for school zones. When we analyzed the effectiveness of flashing beacons on streets with one lane in each direction, we found that when flashing they reduce speeds by 15% on average, typically down to 26 MPH. Of the new beacons, six were for the Rainier Beach Campus schools: Rainier Beach High School, South Lake High School, South-Shore K-8, and Dunlap Elementary School. This work was undertaken in partnership with the Rainier Ave S Vision Zero program and included restriping Rainier Ave S where necessary in the Rainier Beach school zone to add bus lanes and address high speeds and collisions.

Levy Commitment: Maintain and improve the City's system of traffic signals, signs, and markings. This program met or exceeded the planned accomplishment for all deliverables. New signals built this year through this Levy program include signals at 10th Ave S and S Jackson St, 1st Ave NW and NW 36th St, and in support of the neighborhood greenway in Ravenna-Bryant on NE 68th St and 35th Ave NE. The regulatory sign replacement deliverable had achieved the planned accomplishment in Q3, and during Q4, replaced another 661 signs, making 2019 the most successful year yet.

Left: The Move Seattle Levy enables us to continue building the citywide bike network and build safe routes for people to walk and bike. Seattle is growing and we have limited street space, so staying committed to our vision means looking at innovative new designs like the protected bike lane on NE 65th St that transitions and merges with bus stops along the corridor. Below: 2019 saw important progress on the Center City Bike Network, including protected bike lanes in the South End Connection and on 9th Ave N in South Lake Union, shown here. This program exceeded the combined total planned mileage for 2019, adding 12.41 miles of bikeways to the citywide network, including protected bike lanes, bike lanes, and neighborhood greenways. The program achieved nearly all of the planned accomplishments, with the only variance being sections of the Swift/Myrtle/Othello and 8th Ave projects were installed as a bike lane instead of a protected bike lane. Additionally, several major paving projects that include important bike connections like 35th/Avalon Way SW and the Green Lake loop made substantial progress in construction during 2019.

The project was delayed a few months in order to finalize mitigation requirements and obtain final permits, therefore began limited construction activities in 2019, including material procurement. Major construction did begin in early 2020 in advance of this report being published, including a groundbreaking event with Mayor Durkan, Councilmember Juarez, and project partners from Washington State Department of Transportation, Sound Transit, and North Seattle College. Additional 2019 Accomplishments included contract advertisement, award, and execution, and obtaining environmental permits and construction agreements.

Levy Commitment: Implement early portions of the Accessible Mt. Baker project. This project made progress toward the 2019 plan but is still formalizing a preferred location for potential transit center relocation. In 2019, a design kickoff meeting was held with partner agencies/organizations and advanced three discrete project elements: 1) possible relocation of the Mt Baker Transit Center; 2) Near-term pedestrian and bicycle improvements funded by the Bicycle Safety and New Sidewalk Levy programs; and 3) Bicycle Master Plan (BMP)-funded work to begin design of a protected bike lane on Martin Luther King Jr way S. In late 2019, SDOT hosted a workshop to review circulation of transit in the area and discuss future site plans that accommodate King County Metro, Sound Transit, and Office of Housing needs.

This program met the planned accomplishment for blocks of new sidewalk and exceeded the plan for crossing improvements in 2019. These projects focused on enhancing connections to schools, housing, parks, and transit in high-priority investment areas, helping to advance the program's equity goals and improve access, safety, and mobility for all pedestrians including the most vulnerable users. These projects included filling in sidewalk gaps that serve 10 schools, adding a new crossing signal to better connect Yesler Terrace and Little Saigon, and completing 10 new blocks of sidewalks along the transitdense Greenwood Ave N corridor. In addition to the 48 blocks of sidewalk added this year, we also completed our annual update to the Pedestrian Master Plan Implementation Plan, which continues to guide our efforts to make Seattle the most walkable and accessible city in the nation.

Delays were due to additional design required to accommodate unique site conditions like grading and driveways. Three additional projects are still in construction and will carryforward into 2020 due to delays related to utility conflicts during construction. This includes 3.5 blocks of sidewalk on 112th Ave NE and NE 95th St. More projects are coming up in 2020 and additional detail is available in the Pedestrian Master Plan Implementation Plan. Levy Commitment: Make residential streets without sidewalks safer and more comfortable for walking through partnership with Seattle Public Utilities in the flood-prone Broadview neighborhood.

Of the 12 contracts, all but 2 issued Notice to Proceed (NTP, or began construction) by the end of the year. On average, it took 132 days to go from Advertisement to NTP. This is faster than 2018 by 8 days and faster than average over the 4 years of the Levy (134 days). See Figure 3. Additionally, 6 of the 12 projects had complex funding plans that included a State and/or Federal grant. These projects include Fairview Bridge, Northgate Bridge, Cowen Park Bridge Seismic, 2019 New Sidewalks SRTS (one Federal, one State), and Greenwood Ave Sidewalks (West). Projects with State or Federal grants have more requirements and are generally more difficult to advance into the Construction Phase. SDOT project managers and construction managers continue to work efficiently with the City's Purchasing and Contracting Division, which manages all construction contracts for the City. It requires a team effort to eventually issue the contractor NTP. We made significant improvements from 2018 on the last step of the Ad-NTP process -- Executing the Contract to Notice to Proceed. In 2018, it took an average of 65 days for this step. In 2019, it took an average of 44 days. This is the area that SDOT has the most control over and was an area in which the Department sought to improve during 2019. We are pleased to see the results of this work, as shown in Figure 4. We will continue working to improve in this phase in 2020 and beyond. We do rely on our granting partners and contractors to meet turnaround timelines that are assumed into our schedules.

In 2019, $127.2M Levy dollars were invested in purchasing, prime consultant and Public Works contracts. Of those dollars, $26.5M went to women- and minority-owned firms, representing a WMBE utilization rate of 21% for 2019. The levy portfolio features a 23% WMBE goal and the current average utilization rate, is 22.5%. While SDOT is nearly meeting the overall goal, we're working towards more coordinated planning for WMBE utilization moving forward and to ensure we meet our goal over the life of the Levy. In addition to our strides toward our Levy WMBE utilization goal, in 2019 SDOT achieved the highest WMBE prime utilization in consultant spend 42% or $18.3M and its highest WMBE prime purchasing spend to date, $4.8M. SDOT continues challenging itself to achieve stronger aspirational goals to support the efforts for inclusion and equity in contracting. For more information, visit SDOT's WMBE program webpage. In 2019, we secured $9.9M in grants. Odd-numbered years are typically "off years" in the federal grant process, and 2019 followed that pattern. Grant awards dropped from approximately $29M in 2018 to $9.9M in 2019. SDOT still has several active grant requests at the end of 2019, totaling approximately $5M, which are awards that would potentially arrive in 2020. More information on funding and leverage status will be developed later in 2020 through the Portfolio Status Update, see page 9. The table below summarizes grants submitted for Move Seattle projects and their respective Levy program and award status. Projects will move forward according to their respective schedules, regardless of grant award status noted here.

Final numbers may be adjusted in future years due to accounting system updates. In 2019, our spend plan estimate range was $190M-218M. The range is representative of an attempt to capture the natural fluctuations in capital spending as well as the more significant risks in project delivery such as legal appeals, inadequate construction bids, unforeseen design or construction issues and permitting delays. Our spend in 2019 was slightly over the high end of this range at $221.9M. Since our 2019 deliverables, which aligned with this spend plan, were largely on track (signal diagnostics being the only portion that underdelivered against the year's plan). this spend rate is appropriate and acceptable. The following summary takes a closer look at the elements of this spend. EVALUATING SPENDING ACTUALS There are several ways to analyze and evaluate our spend plan. The first is way is to compare spending with deliverables, which are consistent with one another in 2019. Another approach, that we took in 2019, was sharing the relative risk in delivery based on the phase of the projects(s), shown in Figure 5. The highest risk to our spend plan is in projects that are planned to proceed from design into construction (Risk Type 1) due to the nature of things that must occur before we proceed to construction (final design approvals, community involvement, grant awards and responsive construction bids as examples). In 2019, we anticipated roughly $42.1M in spend on projects in this phase, and we reached $28.4M. Figure 5: Spend Plan ($218M) Risk Types vs Actuals ($222.3M) Our "design only" (Risk Type 2), crew delivered (Risk Type 4), and operations and maintenance (Risk Type 5) projects were closer to plan. These are the project delivery types and phases where we have the most predictability and control of risks. The other notable variance was in construction (Risk Type 3). This is primarily attributed to how we estimate our project contingency spending, which we usually assign to the last construction year of a project's spend plan, due to its variability in our projects. With this approach, when we need to use some of our contingency during construction, we will have an increased spend over the estimate in the current year for a multi-year project. A primary example of this in 2019 is the Lander Overpass (see Congestion Relief summary). SPEND VARIANCE BY LEVY FUNDING CATEGORY The third way we analyze our spending performance is by levy category. We review each of the three levy categories, their portfolio of projects and each individual project's actual variance from the anticipated spend for the year. Due to the nature of variability in each individual project spend plan, that can range from slightly higher than spend plan, slightly lower than spend plan, or in the middle of the range. The following explains the largest project variations within each category. Safe Routes The Safe Routes category of the levy was $600K under the anticipated spend plan in 2019. Within this category, levy program #5 Bicycle Safety underspent the plan by $3M due to signal pole delays, design savings, and construction contingency savings. Since the total of bike facilities planned for 2019 was met, this underspend does not raise concerns of under-delivery; in fact, design and contingency savings are positive results, as funds will be available for future project needs. In contrast, levy program #1 Safety Corridors overspent its spending plan by $1.3M due to construction spending that advanced faster than the plan for the 2017 Spot Improvements Contract 2. In the case of these projects, this is not expected to affect the overall project spends once they reach completion. Maintenance and Repair For this levy category we had some larger variations for projects and programs that totaled an amount below the spend plan of $3.5M. This was driven by levy program #12 Bridge Seismic that spent $4.2M less than plan due to delays in progressing towards advertisement. The Cowen Park Bridge was delayed in the grant obligation process; the 8th Ave NW/NW 133rd Ave Bridge completed design but did not proceed to construction as planned as we chose to prioritize the opportunity for a grant, which we are now awaiting; and the W Howe Bridge, that was delayed slightly in contract advertisement, in order to incorporate painting requirements, as part of a bundling effort to gain efficiencies through a joint contract for painting and seismic. Levy program #13 Fairview Bridge was $3.6M under the planned spend due the need to rebid from earlier in the year, thus delaying the start of construction by one quarter. Lastly, levy program #9 Arterial Asphalt and Concrete Program, exceeded the spend plan by $5.9M due to construction progressing faster than planned due to dry fall weather and additional crews, particularly on the Green Lake Loop and SW Avalon Way/35th Ave SW projects. Congestion Relief For our Congestion Relief category, spend was in excess of the plan by $8.2M. This can be primarily attributed to the Lander Street Overpass, levy program #28, which saw delayed shaft construction in 2018, that led to higher than expected spending in 2019, as well as use of approximately $4M of contingency due to construction change orders. This project is still on schedule and anticipated to deliver within the budget. We saw delayed spending on the Northgate Bridge project, levy program #23, due to contract re-advertisement and additional permitting time. This project still had construction start under a limited notice to proceed for material procurement in 2019. INCREASED TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY Overall, 2019 was a successful year in advancing delivery and experiencing an actual spend in alignment with the delivery and spend plans that we projected early in the year. We will continue to use similar approaches in 2020 and beyond, and we will strive to continually improve our ability to anticipate risks and associated impacts that affect our yearly spend. March 30, 2020 RE: Move Seattle Levy Oversight Committee 2019 Report to the Mayor and City Council Dear Mayor Durkan, Council President M. Lorena Gonzlez, and members of the Council: The Move Seattle Levy Oversight Committee (LOC) transmits its 2019 annual report consistent with the Move Seattle Levy legislation. This report summarizes the LOC's observations of successes and shortcomings for the Move Seattle Levy in the past year and offers recommendations for moving forward. 2019 Assessment This past year represents the largest annual expenditure of funds used for Move Seattle Levy projects ($222.3 million). Of this expenditure, $111.5 million came directly from the Move Seattle Levy. The LOC applauds the increased use of these funds. The LOC also commends SDOT's strategic leveraging of other funding to complement projects in the Move Seattle Levy portfolio. This past year was marked with major movement on some important Move Seattle Levy projects. The Fairview Bridge project broke ground. This project replaces the last timber vehicle bridge in Seattle. The Northgate Pedestrian Bridge project had its design finalized with plans to break ground in 2020. The LOC also saw commitment from SDOT this past year on continuing the effort to secure Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funding for some of the multimodal projects in the Move Seattle Levy portfolio. The LOC hopes to see the momentum from 2019 carried into 2020. Committee Members Rachel Ben-Shmuel, Co-chair Lisa Bogardus Vicky Clarke Samuel Ferrara Joseph Laubach Inga Manskopf Nick Paranjpye Ron Posthuma, Co-chair Hester Serebrin Patrick Taylor Bicycle Advisory Board David Seater Pedestrian Advisory Board Todd Biesold Freight Advisory Board Alex Rouse Transit Advisory Board City Budget Director Ben Noble Committee Staff Rachel McCaffrey rachel.mccaffrey@seattle.gov (206) 771 0480 The Levy Oversight Committee is an advisory body that monitors revenues, expenditures, and program and project implementation. The Oversight Committee advises the City Council, the Mayor, and SDOT on responding to program and project cost savings or overruns. The Oversight Committee reviews SDOT's program and project priorities and financial plans and makes recommendations to the Mayor and City Council regarding the spending of levy proceeds. Council Bill 118402 Oversight and Transparency The LOC has been able to improve its effectiveness based on the legible and consistent reporting SDOT staff, Rachel McCaffrey, has provided to the committee. The LOC receives quarterly reports from SDOT that summarize progress and expenditures on Levy projects. Rachel compiles information from many parts of the department, ensuring accountability to the LOC. The change over several years ago has been impressive. The tone of the interactions between Department representatives and the LOC has improved considerably, which is a credit to department leadership as well as Rachel. These reports have allowed the LOC to provide oversight continuously throughout the year. A recent LOC retreat organized by Rachel has resulted in increased involvement by many of the Committee members. The quote below from LOC co-chairs in the SDOT blog is an example of oversight guidance the LOC has been able to offer from our review of the quarterly reports. "We were glad to see the arterial paving accomplishments noted in the 3rd Quarter Report. SDOT contractors and crews have already completed almost all the work scheduled for this year and even begun work on projects scheduled for next year. This kind of accelerated project delivery is critical to restoring and improving transportation infrastructure in our fast-growing city. Underspending in a few areas, though well explained in each case, needs to be monitored carefully to stay on track." - Ron Posthuma and Betty Spieth-Croll, Co-Chairs, 11/6/2019 The LOC was given a briefing on the 2020 budget prior to its approval and was given the opportunity to comment. The LOC wrote a 10/8/2019 memo with recommendations for the 2020 transportation budget. One recommendation was to use proceeds from the Mercer Mega Block sales to fund Move Seattle Levy projects. Both the Mayor and City Council chose to add additional funding to Levy projects from the Mercer Mega Block sales in the adopted budget. The LOC commends this decision. In addition to finding the quarterly reports helpful, we particularly appreciate the agency's efforts to be transparent regarding its pursuit of funding the multimodal corridor projects. Understanding the steps the agency has takenand has to takein seeking key multimodal project funding from, for example, the FTA, has allowed us to be in a better position to offer perspectives on where limited funding should be spent. The Committee encourages SDOT to work toward fulfilling the voter-approved Levy multimodal commitments of redesigning major streets to improve connectivity and safety for all travelers, whether they walk, bike, ride transit, or drive. As the LOC stated last year, even with limited funding, the original goal of holistically addressing the needs of all travelers should not be abandoned. Vision Zero In 2019, at least 25 people died in traffic-related collisions in Seattle. The majority of them (16) were killed while walking or rolling. This is close to the highest in over a decade and is not acceptable, especially considering there are proven ways to prevent pedestrian deaths. One of the Move Seattle Levy goals is to advance the City's Vision Zero Plan for eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030. In 2019 Levy funds were used to complete six Vision Zero Move Seattle Oversight Committee 2019 Report to the Mayor and Council cont'd projects. This is not enough. While the LOC will continue to work with SDOT so that Vision Zero projects funded by the Levy are implemented as quickly and effectively as possible, we urge the Mayor to take further measures to address this crisis. We applaud the Mayor for reducing city-wide speed limits, establishing leading pedestrian intervals, and conducting additional studies, but further measures are needed in a growing city like ours to reduce fatalities and serious injuries among people who are simply walking and rolling along our city streets. Neighborhood Street Fund The LOC participated in the 2019 Neighborhood Street Fund (NSF) project selection process. The LOC credits SDOT staff for making a concerted effort to provide outreach to underserved communities. Small groups of LOC members visited the finalist projects. The committee then deliberated as a whole to select the projects that would receive funding. The LOC emphasized equity as a major criterion in selecting projects that were to receive funding. Projects that were in areas of the city that have been historically underserved received priority. The LOC was happy to see SDOT mirror this emphasis on equity in their outreach efforts to the public for the NSF process. The NSF projects varied in scope and estimated cost. Some of the larger projects that were considered in the NSF selection process appeared to be outside the spirit of the NSF program. Larger projects approved in the 2019 cycle such as the Broadway and John Street signal improvements as well as the 51st Ave South and Renton Ave South Safety Enhancements are projects that appear to offer benefits to the city as a whole (not just the neighborhood in question). The LOC would like to see SDOT find funding outside of NSF funds in the future for projects similar to these. Bicycle and Transit Improvements In 2019 there was an increase in the number of people biking on many routes in the city; bike counters throughout the city showed higher volumes of bicycle travel. Our improved bike networks are getting more people to ride. The Center City Bike Network improvements completed in 2019 provide new and safer connections for people bicycling. But there are still many significant gaps in the bike network. The original Move Seattle Levy deliverables included building approximately 50 miles of new protected bike lanes and 60 miles of greenways, completing over half of the Bicycle Master Plan citywide network. By the end of Q3 2019, only 13.7 miles of protected bike lanes and 14.8 miles of greenways were completed (Levy Deliverable #5). The Committee encourages SDOT and city leadership to prioritize building a complete bike network. Active and healthy transportation is critical to moving people safely through the city and decreasing carbon pollution. Our Vision Zero goals and climate change goals both depend on completing the connections in the Bike Master Plan by 2030. Transit use also continues to trend upwards in the city. As Seattle grows, the population will become more dependent on reliable transit. The LOC hopes to see continued priority given to transit projects in the Levy portfolio (specifically the ones in Levy Deliverable #18 - Multimodal Move Seattle Oversight Committee 2019 Report to the Mayor and Council cont'd Improvements). The Transit/Multimodal subprogram has thus far shown the least deliverable progress of any major portion of the Levy program. While some projects are dependent of Federal Transit Administration approvals, greater attention to projects that do not require significant federal funding may yield better and timelier results. TNC Fees Projects In 2019 the LOC was tasked with oversight responsibilities over the Transportation Network Company (TNC) Tax funding of transportation projects. The city council identified six projects in the 2020 budget that would be funded by the TNC tax: ? Thomas Street Redesign ? West Marginal Way Improvements ? Fortson Square Redesign ? Market to MOHAI ? Home Zone Pilot ? Public Life Study of Capitol Hill The LOC was disappointed to see revenues from this new tax used for new projects when there are existing Move Seattle Levy projects that are not currently being funded. In 2020, the LOC hopes to see the City Council plan to use TNC revenues to fund currently unfunded projects. Moving Forward The LOC commends the increased spending and corresponding deliverables in 2019 and looks to see this trend continue in 2020. The LOC anticipates continued progress in 2020 to complete Move Seattle Levy deliverables as these were promised as part of a voter-approved tax initiative. Finally, we wish to thank all those who served and retired from the LOC in 2019: Betty Spieth-Croll, Brian Estes, and Councilmember Mike O'Brien. We would also like to extend thanks to the SDOT staff who have aided in informing us of the Move Seattle Levy progress. In particular, we would like to thank Director Sam Zimbabwe, Deputy Director Lorelei Williams, Nick Makhani, and Rachel McCaffrey. The LOC appreciated Director Zimbabwe's strong leadership during his first full year as director. We also would like to thank Councilmember O'Brien and the Mayor's office for their active engagement in our work. In 2020 the LOC looks forward to working with our new councilmember Alex Pedersen. We look forward to continuing our oversight duties in 2020 with the help of Director Sam Zimbabwe, Deputy Director Lorelei Williams, Rachel McCaffrey, Nick Makhani, and SDOT staff. Sincerely and on behalf of the 2019 Move Seattle Levy Oversight Committee, Rachel Ben-Shmuel Ron Posthuma Co-Chair (2019/2020) Co-Chair (2019/2020) Abandonment/Re-appropriation A type of budget revision that authorizes budget to be reallocated to a future budget year. Adopted budget The total budget authority that is approved in the annual budget ordinance by City Council. All funds All SDOT funds that are allocated for Levy to Move Seattle projects, including Levy funds, leverage (grants, partnerships, etc.), and local funds. Carryforward A type of budget revision that authorizes grants and capital projects to continue into the next budget year, adding to the adopted budget amount. Unspent budget is presumed to become 'carryforward' in the following year unless another action is taken (i.e. an abandonment). Levy funds A component of All Funds, these are specifically property tax proceeds as approved by voters in November 2015. Planned Accomplishments An annual plan for achieving deliverables. Planned accomplishments are accountable to the 2018 Workplan, taking into account current schedules and risks, and outlining each program's planned delivery for the year. Planned accomplishments do not supersede delivery plan outlined in the 2018 Workplan. Revision A budget action to adjust the adopted budget that occurs throughout the year to recognize grants, new revenues, augment or reduce appropriation authority, and make changes to capital projects. Revised budget The adopted budget plus any revisions that occur through the year. Transfer A type of budget revision that transfers budget from one project to another. Depending on the magnitude, these are processed either through Quarterly Supplementals or internally. Spend plan A plan developed and maintained by project owners, managers, project controls, and finance. The spend plan incorporates current events impacting project delivery and can be revised to better match expected spending. Spend plans may differ from budget due to current events, fund restrictions, or policy decisions. Current spend plans are reflected in the Levy workplan and updated annually for the Levy Oversight Committee. Supplemental A Council process, typically occurring quarterly, that revises the budget and may include obligating grants, allocating or transferring funding to and from projects, and creating new positions. ????????????????????????? |
