SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The City of Yakima is assisting the Yakima Valley Conference of Governments (YVCOG) in the
update of the Metropolitan Transportation Model using software developed by TModel
Corporation and implemented by the YVCOG. The Metropolitan model provides an assessment
of the capacity of arterial streets within the upper valley area and identifies streets which may have
capacity constraints in the 20 year horizon required for planning under the Growth Management
Act. The YVCOG provides modeling services to all the communities within the upper valley area
as a result of this project. The model was last updated in 1994.
The City of Yakima was awarded $35,000 in Federal Surface Transportation Program funds
(STP) in order to contract professional services from TModel Corporation for updating the
Metropolitan model. YVCOG could not provide the local match of approximately $5,462 and
therefore requested the City of Yakima "sponsor" the project and provide the local match and
contract administration. Likewise, Yakima County is "sponsoring" the Origin and Destination
Study. The attached appropriation ordinance authorizes a total project budget of $40,462.
