By Representative Farivar

ADOPTED 02/27/2024

On page 3, at the beginning of line 14, beginning with "including" strike all material through "system" on line 24 and insert ". For purposes of this subsection, "transit station" and "transit facility" have the same meaning as defined in RCW 9.91.025. "Transit station" and "transit facility" do not include any "transit vehicle" as that term is defined in RCW 9.91.025"

EFFECT:   Clarifies that transit stations and transit facilities do not include transit vehicles.  Replaces the definition of “transit station” and “transit facility” with a citation to an existing statutory definition in RCW 9.91.025:

"Transit station" or "transit facility" means all passenger facilities, structures, stops, shelters, bus zones, properties, and rights-of-way of all kinds that are owned, leased, held, or used by a transit authority for the purpose of providing public transportation services.

Removes the term "transit authority" and its definition from the bill. The term and definition remain present in RCW 9.91.025.
