ADOPTED

SEPTEMBER 25, 2018

TEXT OF THE MOTION

The Port Commission hereby extends deadline from September 30, 2018, to January 22, 2019,

for the completion of a plan that ensures all existing and future single-occupant restrooms at

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac), beyond meeting the requirements set by the

Washington State Building Code (WSBC), are designated for use by any person, regardless of

sex or gender identity, and that appropriate signage is used to indicate this fact.

STATEMENT IN SUPPORT OF THE MOTION

On May 22, 2018, the port commission adopted Motion 2018-08, which directed port staff to

develop a Sea-Tac gender-inclusive restroom plan. The plan was due to commission by

September 30, 2018.

The Aviation Project Management Group is currently reviewing restroom designs as part of the

Sea-Tac restroom renovation project and analyzing feasibility of those designs at Sea-Tac. The

analysis is expected to be complete by December 31, 2018. This analysis is a critical component

of the plan and will assist the working group in providing the best recommendation for design

of gender-inclusive restrooms at Sea-Tac.
