The Port of Seattle's Tourism Marketing Grant Program, presented at the December 11, 2018 commission meeting, outlines the fourth year of a partnership initiative aimed at advancing statewide tourism and promoting use of Port facilities across Washington.

In December 2018, the Port of Seattle Commission voted to increase its annual property tax levy by 3 percent, raising it from $72,000,000 to $74,160,000 for the 2019 fiscal year, a difference of $2,160,000. The increase was required to be formally documented under Washington State law (RCW 84.55.120) through a separate resolution specifying both the dollar amount and percentage change. The Commission had previously approved the levy increase as part of its broader 2019 budget adoption in November 2018.

The Port of Seattle requested Commission approval to reimburse airport tenant SP-LW LLC (Sub Pop-Li'l Woody's) up to $360,095.72 for design costs after it was discovered that a required grease waste line could not be installed at their originally awarded Concourse C restaurant space (CC-06) due to building code constraints. As a resolution, the Port proposed moving the tenant to a comparable space in the North Satellite (NS-23) and amending their lease accordingly, with no changes to concession fees. The situation also prompted the Port to establish new planning protocols to verify utility infrastructure viability before awarding future food and beverage spaces.
