    Port Of Seattle Economic Development Partnership Program

    The Port of Seattle's Economic Development Partnership Program provides approximately $1 million in annual grant funding to the 38 cities in King County, distributed on a $1-per-capita basis (capped at $65,000, with a $5,000 minimum for the smallest cities). Cities can use the funds for eligible activities such as business recruitment, small business development, tourism, and downtown revitalization, but not for capital projects, and must provide a 50 percent local match. Cities may partner with local nonprofits or collaborate regionally to maximize the impact of their projects.

    City of Des Moines Economic Development Presentation

    This presentation from the City of Des Moines, Washington outlines the city's economic development context, noting its population of roughly 30,000 residents across 6.5 square miles and a median household income of $60,000. The city faces suburban challenges including transitioning toward more urbanized town centers and achieving fiscal self-sufficiency, complicated by the fact that 50% of its potential trade capture area lies underwater in Puget Sound. The city's strategy focuses on increasing overall economic demand rather than competing directly with neighboring communities.

As the source for federal transportation grants, the Puget Sound Regional Council was charged with developing a system to meet the growing need for commercial aviation. When the search for a second airport failed, they authorized the Port of Seattle to build the Third Runway, with a mandate to develop a noise abatement and mitigation program. In their effort to stop the Third Runway, the ACC argued over every detail of the Port's efforts--including property buyouts and sound insulation. The dispute was meant to be settled by a three member Expert Arbitration Panel. This is their final report. It finds 2-1, that the Port's program was insufficient in several respects. Despite that, funding for the Third Runway was approved by the PSRC, and the 'Port Package' program, proceeded largely unchanged.

The majority decision concluded the Port's noise abatement programs were insufficient despite being impressive in scope.
