    Resolution No. 3848 – Port of Seattle Participation in City of Bellevue Tax Increment Area

    Port of Seattle Resolution No. 3848, adopted April 28, 2026, approves the Port's full participation in the City of Bellevue's tax increment area for the Grand Connection Crossing project. The resolution authorizes the use of property tax increments to fund transportation-related public improvements connected to Interstate 405, aimed at linking Bellevue's downtown core to a regional multimodal network. The Port Commission cited expected economic benefits, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and the project's connection to the Eastrail corridor as key reasons for its support.

    City of Bellevue Grand Connection Tax Increment Area – Resolution

    The Port of Seattle Commission is being asked to approve Resolution No. 3848, which would authorize the Port's participation in the City of Bellevue's Grand Connection tax increment area (TIA) — a financing mechanism to fund a pedestrian infrastructure project connecting downtown Bellevue to the Eastrail trail. Participation would redirect an estimated $1.41 to $2.15 million of the Port's property tax revenue to the project over 25 years. Port staff concluded the financial impact is manageable, noting that broader economic growth spurred by the project could offset revenue diverted within the TIA boundaries.

    Port of Seattle Regular Commission Meeting March 24, 2026

    The Commission will hear two very important presentations for us: First, $1,000,000 in new fees for Landrum & Brown to continue as SAMP consultants, a job they have had since the Third Runway process. Second, reorganizing the Port's bond authorization system, key to financing the SAMP both NTP today and LTP in 2032.
