The state funding is limited as shown below: 72nd Ave & Washinton Ave Active Transportation Components $500,000 2023-25 Available Funding: $ 0 2025-27 Available Funding: $ 500,000 Scope: Title of the project is the scope of work. Local Programs State Funding Agreement or Supplement must be authorized before the start of each state funded phase of the project. This includes authorization of the construction phase prior to advertisement of the construction contract. In the event the 2025-27 funding is not reimbursed, WSDOT will need to request the remaining funding through the 2027-29 budget process. Based on the revised funding provided by the legislature, WSDOT can only reimburse your agency for the approved work completed each biennium, as reflected above. Therefore, it is critical that the city plan its work and schedule so that the funds match the work. As a reminder, the amount of MAWA funds available in each biennium is contained within the enacting legislation. To meet the state requirements for this project, the following are required:  Project expenditures incurred before receiving notice from Local Programs of fund authorization are not eligible for reimbursement.  Please refer to the Local Programs webpage for detailed authorization information, including: (http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/localprograms/) Mr. Robert Washabaugh, PE City of Yakima April 15, 2026  Local Agency Guidelines (LAG) manual for detailed requirements.  Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) amendments, as applicable.  Funding and billing forms.  Local Project Report is required to be completed by the end of June and December each year. To access the database, you will need an account name and password. Your account name is Yakima and your password is Yakim007. The password is case sensitive.  Directive 24-01 “Use of Climate Commitment Act Branding in Agency Contracts” – compels agencies like WSDOT that administer CCA-funded programs to require subrecipients to implement consistent branding and funding acknowledgements. Therefore, you are required to use the branding guidance for this CCA-funded project. If CCA is a portion of your project’s overall funding, please also list other funding sources as applicable on your communications including webpages. It is important to note that there is no additional funding for this effort, so please do what is feasible relative to your grant award. The directive and related branding requirements are attached to this letter. Local Programs encourages all agencies to submit monthly progress billings to ensure timely reimbursement of eligible expenditures. For questions or assistance, please contact your Region Local Programs Engineer, Seth Walker at 509.577.1780 or Seth.Walker@wsdot.wa.gov. Sincerely, Jay Drye, PE Director Local Programs Attachments JD:st:cdm cc: Seth Walker, PE, South Central Local Programs Engineer DIRECTIVE OF THE GOVERNOR 24-01 Date: January 16, 2024 To: Executive and Small Cabinet Agencies From: Governor Jay Inslee Subject: Use of Climate Commitment Act Branding in Agency Contracts As agencies begin deploying appropriations from the Climate Commitment Act (CCA), we are creating tools to ensure transparency about how CCA funding is being put to work across the state. One of the ways we can help people see CCA benefits in their own neighborhoods and communities is through consistent branding and funding acknowledgements. Effective today, January 16, 2024, agency contracts related to CCA-funded programs and projects must include provisions consistent with the attached branding contract guidelines. The CCA is supercharging state efforts to reduce pollution and keep our air clean. The projects and programs supported by the CCA provide Washingtonians more options for cleaner, healthier homes, schools, businesses and communities. Examples include keeping kids safe from asthma by switching to electric school buses and improving air ventilation systems in schools; helping thousands of families reduce utility bills by weatherizing their homes and upgrading to energy-efficient heat pumps; and creating clean energy jobs in solar, wind, clean hydrogen and other clean energy sectors. The attached CCA branding contract guidelines are similar to the kinds of funding requirements often seen in federally-funded programs or other infrastructure funding programs. For CCA-funded contracts that were executed prior to this effective date, agencies should evaluate on a case-by-case basis if amendments to include any or all of these requirements are feasible or justifiably infeasible. I appreciate everyone’s dedication and progress toward a cleaner, healthier, safer Washington for all. STATE OF WASHINGTON -OFFICE OF GOVERNOR JAY lNSLEE - Climate Commitment Act funding acknowledgments and branding: Contract guidelines for agencies Last updated: January 16, 2024 Issued by Oﬃce of the Governor Pursuant to Directive 24-01 The Climate Commitment Act (CCA) is the centerpiece of the state’s climate action efforts. Revenue from the program will support thousands of projects, programs and jobs that reduce pollution, and improve the health, safety, and resilience of neighborhoods and communities across Washington state. To strengthen public awareness of how CCA funding is used, the Oﬃce of the Governor is directing state agencies that administer funding or manage a CCA-supported program to include CCA funding acknowledgement and branding provisions in funding or contract agreements. The following guidance and sample contract language is intended to help agencies identify when and how to include requirements for funding acknowledgments and branding. These ﬂow- down provisions apply to contractors, subcontractors, service providers and others doing business with the agency to implement a program that is receiving CCA funding. Such guidelines are similar to routine funding conditions from the federal government and will feel familiar to many agencies, particularly those who do federally-funded public works projects. This guidance is effective January 16, 2024. For CCA-funded contracts that were executed prior to this effective date, agencies should evaluate on a case-by-case basis if amendments to include any or all of these requirements are feasible or justiﬁably infeasible.

Information about the CCA is available at www.climate.wa.gov.” 5 Appendix A: Oﬃcial brand guide and toolkit This brand guide and logo and font ﬁles are available online at climate.wa.gov/brandtoolkit. To strengthen public awareness of how Climate Commitment Act (CCA) funding is put to work, state agencies and recipients of programs or projects funded by the CCA are directed to use a funding acknowledgement and/or logo. The Climate Commitment Act logo is a symbol of the state's commitment to ﬁghting climate change and pollution. The simple but powerful design conveys our progress towards a cleaner, zero emission future. The primary color palette is the three shades of green representing the Evergreen State's natural beauty and its commitment to environmental protection. The funding acknowledgement provides standard language for websites, press releases, public outreach materials and other related promotional products. The guidance below provides general information about funding acknowledgement language and logo usage. Funding recipients should refer to their contracts for information about if and when these requirements apply. Funding acknowledgement Administering agencies and all funding recipients, including sub-grantees and local agencies that receive CCA funding to supplement existing programs, must include recognition of CCA funding in alignment with this guidance. The funding source acknowledgment should be used in project- or program-related publications, websites, signage, invitations, and other media-related and public-outreach products. The standard funding language to be used is: “The [PROGRAM NAME / GRANT / ETC.] is supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act. The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and- invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health. Information about the CCA is available at www.climate.wa.gov.” Logo usage The logo should always be used in its entirety, with the wordmark and symbols together. The logo should not be altered in any way, including changing the colors, proportions or fonts. The logo should be displayed on a white background. If a white background isn’t possible, use the primary logo with the border or one of the approved white logos. The primary color palette is the shades of green, but it can also be used in black and white and/or gray scale as required. The logo can be used in a variety of applications, including websites, social media, print materials, and signage. When using the logo in digital applications or printing for signage, it is important to use a high-resolution version of the logo ﬁle. 6 Primary logo Primary with border & white background Social media icon: For social media sites where a round icon is necessary or useful. Grayscale logo: ONLY use the grayscale logo for black and white printing, limited color printing, or low-resolution displays. White logo While the primary CCA logo is always preferred, circumstances may necessitate using an alternative white logo. To ensure optimal visual impact, use only the listed logos with the black background or one of the approved CCA green hues.
