What the records say

In materials published ahead of the May 6, 2025 meeting, the city was scheduled to consider adopting a resolution that would authorize the City Manager to enter into Local Agency Agreement Supplement No. 3 and a prospectus with the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) for $10,710,000 1. The stated purpose of that funding was the Bothell Way NE Multimodal Improvements Project 1. The agenda recommended the resolution as the action to take. The available records do not establish the meeting's outcome.

  • The funding was designated for the Bothell Way NE Multimodal Improvements Project 1.
  • The agenda recommended the action, but the available records do not establish whether the resolution was approved 1.

Why it matters

A $10.71 million infusion of state money would give Bothell a major source of funding to improve Bothell Way NE. If the resolution passed, the City Manager would be authorized to sign the agreement with WSDOT, clearing the way for the city to draw on those funds for the project. Because this was a pre-meeting record, residents cannot confirm from these materials whether the agreement was actually approved.
