In June 2012, the Port of Seattle Commission considered a resolution to sell portions of the Woodinville Subdivision rail corridor (also known as the Eastside Rail Corridor) to King County for $15 million, minus closing costs and a $1.9 million credit. The sale was part of a broader regional agreement among the Port, King County, Sound Transit, the City of Redmond, Cascade Water Alliance, and Puget Sound Energy to transfer the former BNSF Railway corridor into public ownership for future trail and transportation uses. The resolution also authorized a permanent easement granting King County rights over part of the Port's freight section of the corridor for recreational trail purposes.

In February 2012, the Port of Seattle Commission considered Resolution No. 3659 to authorize the sale of a portion of the Woodinville Subdivision rail corridor — also known as the Eastside Rail Corridor — to the City of Kirkland for $5 million. The property, located within the cities of Kirkland and Bellevue, was declared surplus to Port needs and intended for trail and transportation uses. This sale was part of a broader series of transactions in which the Port transferred segments of the corridor to various regional partners, including the City of Redmond, Sound Transit, and Puget Sound Energy.

Resolution No. 3650 was adopted by the Port of Seattle Commission on May 3, 2011, updating the Port's policies and procedures under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) to reflect changes in law and improve effectiveness. The resolution requires the Port to analyze and, where appropriate, mitigate the environmental impacts of its proposals, including consideration of greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. It supersedes all prior related resolutions and formally designates policies that may be used to condition or deny actions under SEPA's substantive authority.
