Establishing funding for community preservation and development authorities approved through RCW 43.167.060.
SB 5460 creates a new funding source by directing 30% of state sales tax revenue from large stadiums (with specific size requirements) into community development accounts. This funding supports county-level community preservation authorities in areas affected by major public projects, with funds split between operating and capital needs. Authorities must use the money for economic development, safety improvements (like addressing homelessness impacts), and housing initiatives (including low-income units). The program expires in 2037 but requires a legislative review by 2034 to assess its impact on communities.
