MSTIP '23-'28 Funding Cycle

The MSTIP '23-'28 Funding Cycle includes proposed street projects both inside cities (incorporated areas) and outside cities (unincorporated areas) in Washington County. Both the County and cities proposed the projects. 

At this time, there are 25 proposed projects being considered. The estimated cost of all proposed 25 projects is nearly $350 million - more than twice as much as the $160 million historically available for MSTIP funding cycles.

In January-March 2022, we conducted focus groups, listening sessions and an online open house asking the public what they feel is most important when traveling in Washington County. About 250 people took the online open house survey. Respondents identified the following topics as important or very important:

• Safety
• Equity and inclusion
• Environment
• Healthy economy

Using that feedback, staff from the County and cities in Washington County worked together to develop the list of 25 proposed projects in the four Commission Districts. We conducted a second online open house and survey in July-August 2022, asking participants to select up to three projects in each commissioner district for possible funding. 

There were 721 online responses. An additional 254 paper surveys  were completed at farmers markets and community festivals. In total,  975 surveys were collected.

We are using the results of this second survey to help the Washington County Board of Commissioners understand community priorities as they create the final list of projects for the 2023-2028 MSTIP funding cycle.
