Today the Port of Seattle Commission, in keeping with its environmental goals and the Port's Century Agenda, approved a motion formally endorsing Washington State Initiative 1631. This action follows a briefing in public session on October 9, conducted in accordance with recommendations provided to the Port by the Washington State Public Disclosure Commission, and after receiving testimony from members of the public representing both sides of the issue.
From the motion:
"For these reasons, the Port of Seattle welcomes the opportunity to be part of the broad coalition of supporters who strongly endorse the adoption of Initiative Measure No. 1631. We look forward to working with the state and legislative leaders who will ultimately decide how best to fund the reduction of harmful emissions and to help further our state’s leadership in establishing a path toward a sustainable future."
