PSRC Agreement KENT SS4A 05-30-23 DRAFT v2a
Budget Impact
BUDGET IMPACT: Local funded effort of up to $118,000 through Public Works Department staff
time as the match for Federal funds.
Motion
MOTION: I move to authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents to execute an
agreement with the Puget Sound Regional Council for the Safe Streets and Roads For
All Action Plan, in the amount of $472,000, amend the budget and authorize
expenditure of grant funds of up to $118,000 in local matching effort, subject to final
terms and conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and Public Works Director.
Summary
SUMMARY: The United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) issued a notice of funding
opportunity in 2022 for the new Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) discretionary program.
The SS4A program funds grants to regional, local, and Tribal initiatives intended to prevent
roadway deaths and serious injuries. The City partnered with 5 other jurisdictions to submit a
grant application with Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) as the lead agency. The proposal
was accepted and PSRC was designated by USDOT to serve as grant facilitator.
The 2022 Kent Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) lays out an evidenced-based analysis of crashes,
with recommendations for spot improvements at top crash locations. The SS4A Action Plan
expands on the LRSP and will enable the City to qualify and compete for additional federal
funding. An SS4A-qualified Action Plan will include engagement with public and private
stakeholders, identifying and prioritizing safety treatments and pedestrian facility needs, with
education and outreach on Safe Systems Approach that focuses on reducing serious and fatal
crashes.
The project is estimated to cost $590,000, including a local match of 20% ($118,000) with plan
work to begin in 2023. Staff proposes using the Street Fund for required match.

parties, and attached to the original Agreement.
10.9. Severability
If any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement are determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a
