BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
YAKIMA, WASHINGTON
AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No.
For Meeting of: October 4, 2011
ITEM TITLE: Hold Public Hearing and consider resolution to Amend the Six-year
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).
SUBMITTED BY: Michael Morales, Director of Community and Economic Development
CONTACT PERSON/TELEPHONE: Doug Mayo, City Engineer 576-6678
Brett Sheffield, Chief Engineer 576-6797
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Six-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a list developed by the City that includes all of
its transportation related projects. The City's existing six-year TIP has a list of projects that amount to
around $175 million. Only projects that are on the list are eligible for federal and state funding.
Each year near the end of June, the City is required by RCW 35.77.010 and RCW 36.81.121 to update its
six-year TIP for submittal to the Washington State Department of Transportation. This plan must include all
transportation projects for which state gas tax revenue of federal revenue will be used. Once the TIP has
been approved by the City Council, it is then added to the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program
(STIP). Only projects that are listed on the STIP can be approved by the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to utilize federal funds. The STIP is a prioritized
program of transportation projects, complied from local and regional plans, along with the Washington
Transportation System Plan (WTP), which provides a backbone for developing projects for the intermodal
transportation network in the State of Washington.
Once established, the STIP can be amended at anytime during the year to add projects so that they
become available for federal or state funding. The first step to amend the STIP is for the City to amend its
six-year TIP.

Once federal funds have been obligated for the construction phase of the project, the project is
removed from the STIP.
Attached is a copy of the proposed amendment to the City's 2011 — 2016 Six -Year Transportation
Improvement Plan. The costliness and delay in construction of the Lincoln Avenue underpass
necessitate that it be reinserted into the STIP. The proposed amendment would place the Yakima
Railroad Grade Separations — Phase 2 project back into the STIP so that additional federal funds could
be used for its construction. This amendment proposes to allocate an additional $2,366,000 of federal
funds for the construction of the Lincoln Avenue Underpass. These federal funds have already been
secured for the Yakima Railroad Grade Separations project.
