The County Council was established as the ex officio governing body/board. In 2015, the Washington State Legislature enacted RCW 36.74.010, which permits counties by ordinance to assume the rights, powers, functions and obligations of a TBD, thereby consolidating its operations under the county’s direct governance. This allows counties to streamline the TBD administration, reduce duplicative functions and cost, and provide greater efficiency and accountability in the use of transportation funds. The proposed ordinance would allow the County Council to assume the rights, powers, functions, and obligations of the TBD, and abolish the existing ex officio governing body/board. At the Public Hearing, the Council may consider amendments to the proposed ordinance. For More Information: Copies of the proposed ordinance and related documents are available upon request by calling the Council Office at (425) 388-3494, TTY/TDD Relay 711, 1(800) 562-4367 x3494, or by e-mailing Contact.Council@snoco.org.
