    The City of SeaTac is moving to renegotiate its Interlocal Agreement with the Port of Seattle, which governs authority, collaboration, and dispute resolution between the two agencies regarding SEA Airport operations within SeaTac city limits. The current 2018 agreement expires in 2028, and on April 14, 2026, the City Council was asked to adopt a resolution creating a Port Negotiation Committee and authorizing the City Manager to begin formal negotiations. Staff recommended adopting the resolution with clarifications covering member absences and compliance with the Open Public Meetings Act.

Second, reorganizing the Port's bond authorization system, key to financing the SAMP both NTP today and LTP in 2032.

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 dispute was meant to be settled by a three member Expert Arbitration Panel. This is their final report. It finds 2-1, that the Port's program was insufficient in several respects. Despite that, funding for the Third Runway was approved by the PSRC, and the 'Port Package' program, proceeded largely unchanged.

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