19.08.051 Six-year street and transportation improvement program including urban arterial improvement program.

Pursuant to RCW Chapter 35.77 and RCW Chapter 47.26 (relating to urban arterial improvements), the city shall maintain a perpetual six-year transportation and street construction and improvement program. Such program shall be in conformance to and in furtherance of the circulation element of the comprehensive land use policies plan adopted by Ordinance No. 2346. Any modification, revision or amendment shall be adopted only following public hearing as required by RCW Chapter 35.77 and RCW Chapter 47.26. The six-year transportation and street construction and improvement program may, consistent with this section, be adopted, modified, revised or amended by council resolution. A copy of the six-year transportation and street construction and improvement program and all amendments made thereto shall annually be filed with the director of the Department of Transportation for the state as required by law. (Ord. 2811 § 1, 1984: Ord. 2472 § 6, 1979)

19.08.055 Complete streets.

(a)    The safe, convenient and comfortable travel of people of all ages and abilities traveling by any combination of foot, bicycle, transit, or motor vehicle shall be accommodated to the maximum extent practical in the scoping, planning, development, construction, operation and maintenance of all transportation facilities, including the creation of new transportation linkages in order to create a more connected communitywide transportation network.

(b)    Notwithstanding that provision of subsection (a) of this section, new facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and people of all ages and abilities are not required to be constructed:

(1)    Where their establishment would be contrary to public safety;

(2)    When routine maintenance of the transportation network is performed that does not significantly alter the travel facility or does not provide the opportunity to enhance complete streets within the scope of the maintenance work, such as mowing, sweeping, and spot repairs; or

(3)    In instances where a documented exception is granted by the city manager because the cost would be excessively disproportionate to the need or probable use, or where the establishment would violate comprehensive plan policies.

(c)    City policies, design criteria, standards and guidelines shall be based on best practices in street design, construction and operations including, but not limited to, guidance provided by the Association of State Highway Transportation Officials, Institute of Transportation Engineers, and National Association of City Transportation Officials.

(d)    City plans and programs, including, but not limited to, the comprehensive plan and transportation master plan shall support the implementation of complete streets. (Ord. 4539 § 1, 2016: Ord. 4061 § 1, 2006)

19.08.060 Street lighting and traffic control.

All arterial streets shall be provided with adequate street lighting for safer traffic control. Traffic control lights shall be installed at intersections as determined by traffic studies.
