    BRIEFING ITEM Date of Meeting January 30, 2018 DATE: January 12, 2018 TO: Dave Soike, Interim Executive Director FROM: Michael Tong, Asst. Finance Director - Budget SUBJECT: 2017 Airport Economic Impacts Study Briefing EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this briefing is to discuss with the Commission the results of the 2017 Airport Economic Impacts Study. BACKGROUND The 2017 Airport Economic Impacts study measures the economic impacts of the Airport in terms of jobs, wages/salaries, business revenues and tax receipts. The report also includes a separate impact analysis for each of the surrounding communities at the Airport. Since 1987, the Port has undertaken a study of the economic impacts of the Seattle Harbor and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in approximate five-year intervals. Information from the study provides defensible representations of the economic impacts associated with Port activities and allows for informed policy discussion regarding the Port’s current and potential future role in supporting the economic vitality of the region. The study and related computer models are also used in internal planning and evaluation of capital projects, comparison of business operations and assessment of alternative land uses. The last study was completed in 2014. The Port advertised for consultants to conduct the 2017 Airport Economic Impacts study on May 11, 2017 and proposals were received on May 22, 2017. Based on the consultants written proposals, methods, assigned personnel, experience, and cost, the Port selected Community Attributes Inc. for the study. On January 18, 2018, the Port will share the results of the 2017…

    BRIEFING ITEM Date of Meeting January 30, 2018 DATE: January 12, 2018 TO: Dave Soike, Interim Executive Director FROM: Dave McFadden, Managing Director, Economic Development Division Ron Peck, Director, Tourism Development Department SUBJECT: 2017 Tourism Marketing Support Program Summary EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On April 11, 2017 the Commission received an update on the program and a list of recommended recipients for the 2017 program. The briefing for January 30, 2018 will recap the 2017 program and identify planned changes for the 2018 Tourism marketing support program. Tourism Marketing Support Recipients The Port of Seattle developed a partnership to facilitate tourism development and growth across the state by promoting use of Port facilities. For 2018 the Commission increased the Tourism Marketing Support program by $50,000, taking the Port’s commitment from $150,000 in 2017 to $200,000 in 2018. The additional $50,000 is to be awarded to organizations engaged in cultural, eco, sustainable, or nature tourism travel related activities. The overall intent of the program is to provide matching support of up to $10,000 each to local communities, destination marketing organizations, ports, chambers of commerce, tribal organizations and non-profits to promote their destinations to visitors traveling to our state. The funds must be used for advertising, publicizing, promoting or distributing information to attract visitors to the destination. The program requires a two to one match. In other words, in order to receive two dollars from the POS, the destination marketing organization must demonstrate a one dollar contribution to the effort. COMMISSION AGENDA – Action…
