Editorial incorrect

Monday, August 18, 2008

Jack Mayne's perspective is simply factually incorrect. By state law, Sound Transit funds collected from Seattle and Shoreline must be spent in those municipalities.

If Sound Transit 2 passes, the light rail line will extend from Seattle's southern border to the county line. That means that a follow-on package MUST fund an additional project in the city. Based on the studies that Sound Transit is funding in this phase, that will be Ballard and West Seattle.
