   On page 3, line 17 of the striking amendment, after "district," strike "and"

   On page 3, line 17, after "tolling" insert ", and two billion seven hundred million dollars from the regional transit authority as provided in section 5 of this act"

   On page 3, after line 21, insert:

   "NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. A new section is added to chapter 81.112 RCW to read as follows:

   Funds received as part of the regional transit authority's system and financing plan submitted to voters at the 2007 general election under RCW 36.120.070 and 81.112.030 that are intended to support light rail across Lake Washington shall, instead, be allocated to the projects listed below in the amounts described and in the following order of priority:

   (1) Two billion seven hundred million dollars for the improvement and replacement of the state route number 520 bridge replacement and HOV project between Interstate 5 and Interstate 405; and

   (2) All other projects identified in the authority's system and financing plan except for projects that support development of light rail across Lake Washington."   

   Renumber the sections accordingly and correct any internal references.

EFFECT: If the system and finance plan is approved by the voters in November of 2007, precludes Sound Transit from using phase two revenues to support light rail across Lake Washington and redirects $2.7 billion of any funds intended for light rail across Lake Washington to the state route 520 bridge replacement project.
