Seattle Voters Approve Million Dollar Parks Bond
A new parks improvement package has been proposed to redesign and improve Dash Point Pier, which is currently closed due to safety concerns. Users can now reserve spots for light rail up to a month in advance. The system allows for planning around specific events, such as matinee baseball games. HOV access is available for free. Drivers using the system may require an Orca card attached to their permit to navigate the new requirements. The system is intended as an option for drivers to secure spots without arriving early or searching for parking. One garage was reported as full around 10:00 AM following the morning commute. Seattle officials have proposed a $155 million package to fund more than 100 local projects. The proposal aims to generate $155 million for more than 100 projects, including at least 40 parks, covering areas across Tacoma.
