    2013 Operating Procedures for the Highline Forum

    The 2013 Operating Procedures for the Highline Forum outline how this informal coalition of Southwest King County cities, schools, and the Port of Seattle collaborates on shared regional issues. The Forum meets four times a year, operates by consensus rather than formal votes, and is co-chaired by a Port of Seattle elected representative and a community elected representative. While not a formal decision-making body, it provides a structured venue for member jurisdictions to share information, coordinate on local initiatives, and engage with outside speakers.

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