development strategic plan. The format of the economic development
element is very different than other elements due to the organization of the
strategic plan.

growth centers and the overall community."
MIG, the City's consultant conducted an audit to find gaps that needed to be
addressed, along with new topics and emerging trends that needed to be
evaluated, including:

Highlight policy connections between economic development & other
elements
Ensure goals & strategies align with key themes from subarea plans

2 Traffic Safety Policy Erik Preston 30 MIN.
City Traffic Engineer Erik Preston presented the update on Kent's Target Zero
Action Plan Draft.
Kent's Local Road Safety Plan is a data driven plan that uses serious and
fatal injury crash data and risk assessment to evaluate and prioritize Kent's
roadways for traffic safety. Kent focuses on serious and fatal injury crashes
because of Washington state's Target Zero Initiative - It is required by the
state for HSIP applications.
1. Identified top priority crash types
2. Analyzed fatal and serious injury crashes to identify risk factors
3. Selected most common risk factors
4. Identified countermeasures
5. Developed projects
6. Selected Prioritized projects
The Safe Systems Approach - Zero is our goal. A Safe System is how we will
get there. Safe Systems Principles:
1. Death/Serious Injury is Unacceptable
2. Humans Make Mistakes
3. Humans are Vulnerable
4. Responsibility is Shared
5. Safety is Proactive
6. Redundancy is Crucial
The 5 Safe Systems Elements Create Redundancy.
Target Zero Action Plan Key Steps
Transportation Planner David Paine provided information on where the City is
on the Target Zero Action Plan.
Paine advised the City is updating its Safety Policy - A policy framed in the

road users.
Draft Guiding Principles:
A Safety System Approach
A Data Driven Approach
An Equitable Approach
A Multi-Disciplinary Approach
Kent's goal is to eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries. Kent will
continue to invest in safety plans, projects, and programs to make progress
towards this goal, with a reevaluation of progress in 2030.

projects, develop solutions, and finalize Target Zero Action Plan in the Fall of
