Voters approved a Transportation Benefit District (TBD) during the April 25, 2017 Special Election. The 0.2% sales tax increase will fund streets and trail projects through a new TBD. Regular updates on street and trail projects funded by the TBD will be posted to our web site. We also encourage you to participate in public discussions about what projects should be funded as these conversations unfold.
Good transportation links are critical to economic development, and we believe the TBD is the first step toward this goal. It’s great to know the community is behind these revitalization efforts - thank you for partnering with us on this effort.

Blaine City Council initiated the Strategic Economic Initiative to develop a detailed action plan for improving economic development prospects in Blaine based on work that has been done by numerous City task forces and committees. The Strategic Economic Initiate will refine and resolve projects, costs, and financing strategies for improving economic development initiatives, parks, trails, downtown beautification, sidewalks, traffic signals, roads, and public facilities. Included below is the link to the Visitor survey, audio recordings, presentations, and other material that are relevant towards the Initiative.
