This proposal is being evaluated
Type of funding: Infrastructure (capital)
Rough cost estimate: Between $2 million and $7.2 million
Evaluation notes:
✅ This idea could be implemented without changing current policy or law.
❌ This City doesn't have jurisdiction to do this idea.
✅ This idea doesn't name a specific vendor.
❌ This idea would incur costs indefinitely.
Justification: This is feasible if the services are offered within the City limits rather than Renton.
Other notes: This idea would incur ongoing costs and may be better supported by the KCRHA.
Thank you for sharing your idea. This idea and its evaluation have been forwarded to the budget delegates. They will use this information to group together similar ideas, narrow down options based on community needs, and develop fully detailed proposals for you and your community to vote on in October 2023.
