Island Transit negotiating to convert Clinton Park & Ride into South Whidbey Transit Center; council hears site plan
Summary
A council member said Island Transit is negotiating with WSDOT and the ferry system to acquire the Clinton Park & Ride for a South Whidbey Transit Center; a site plan shared with council indicates roughly 198 parking spaces, but the property currently lacks striping and ADA access.
A council member told the Morningway City Council that Island Transit is in negotiations with WSDOT and the ferry system to acquire the Clinton Park & Ride and develop it as a South Whidbey Transit Center.
"So there's a 198 spots, and they'll be very close to a 198 spots," the council member said, describing the site plan that Island Transit has shared. The speaker said the property is in poor condition, lacking striping and sufficient ADA access, and that the transit agency leases the land from the ferry system. The speaker said they will circulate the site plan to council members for review.
Council members asked whether the property includes the DOT right-of-way across from Bob Gilbreth that could aid egress; the transcript records the question but no definitive ownership answer. The council did not take formal action on the proposal at this meeting; the report was informational and staff follow-up was suggested.
