AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No. /
For Meeting of May 6, 2003
ITEM TITLE: Set Public Hearings for May 20, 2003 and June 24, 2003, to Discuss
Six-year Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) and
Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) Updates

SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Six-year Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is required to be updated every
year. Any changes to the Regional Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) that would
affect the STIP needs to be updated by formal amendment to the Yakima Valley
Conference of Governments (YVCOG). This requires two Public Hearings and an
adoption process. In order to complete the Public Hearings and adopt the STIP in a timely
manner, we should set the first Public Hearing for the STIP and the MTP amendments for
the May 20th meeting. A second Public Hearing date will need to be set for June 24th to
adopt the changes to the MTP and to adopt the STIP. The City is required to submit our
adopted STIP by July 1, 2003, to the approving authority (YVCOG).
