OLYMPIA – Next week in Chelan, the Washington
State Transportation Commission will meet with community,
tribal and business leaders to discuss transportation
needs in the North Central region of the state. The
meeting begins at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, June 29, at the
Best Western Lakeside Lodge & Suites, 2312 West Woodin
Avenue, in Chelan and is open to the public. Wednesday’s meeting consists of a series of panel
discussions and several short presentations about local
and regional transportation. Representatives from
a number of cities will talk about safety and preservation
needs for their area, rural transit and freight and economic
development issues. The Commission holds several “local meetings” each
year in various cities throughout the state to gain insight
from local government leaders about transportation issues
that affect the local communities and the surrounding
areas. This information helps the Commission to
develop and implement a vision for statewide transportation
that reflects the policies, plans and priorities of the
people of the State of Washington.
The Commission is also holding a work session on a statewide
Toll Study starting at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, June 28, at the
same location. The work session is an open meeting,
however no public comment period is scheduled.
