Summary

Chair and staff asked RPC members to review the 2024 work program and submit suggested changes for the 2025 work plan by Jan. 31; the committee expects to vote on a resolution adopting the 2025 program in February.

Miranda Leskinen of King County Council policy staff briefed the Regional Policy Committee on the process and timeline for developing the committee's 2025 work plan during the Jan. 8 meeting.

Leskinen said the 2024 work program will be used as the base document. Committee members were asked to provide suggested additions or removals to the chair's office and to Leskinen by close of business Jan. 31 to allow staff time to prepare a draft for the committee's February meeting, when a resolution to adopt the 2025 work program is expected.

Leskinen reminded members that the committee's scope is set by the county charter and that adoption of the work program requires a majority vote of members present and voting, with no fewer than 3.5 affirmative votes as noted in the briefing. The chair encouraged associations and individual members to submit items that would benefit from regional discussion.

Several members offered items to consider for inclusion in 2025, including a parks-levy renewal briefing, the Medic One levy and other bond/levy items, and preparatory briefings related to the FIFA World Cup (security, transportation and tourism). Members were directed to follow up with staff if they wanted items added.
