Jack Mayne's perspective is simply factually incorrect. By state law, Sound Transit funds collected from Seattle and Shoreline must be spent in those municipalities.

If Sound Transit 2 passes, the light rail line will extend from Seattle's southern border to the county line. That means that a follow-on package MUST fund an additional project in the city. Based on the studies that Sound Transit is funding in this phase, that will be Ballard and West Seattle.
