Agenda Item five Council Bill 120246. An ordinance relating to the city's traffic code conforming the Seattle Municipal Code with changes in state law, amending sections of the Seattle MRGO Code and adding new sections of the Seattle Municipal to the Seattle Municipal Code. Thank you so much. I moved past Council Bill 120246. Is there a second second? Thank you so much. It's been moved and seconded to pass the Council bill. Colleagues, this is one of those rare and exceptional circumstances in which the legislation is listed on our agenda as not having a sponsor identified for the legislation before its introduction . As a result, as Council President presiding over these proceedings, I'll go ahead and address the substance of the bill. This is this pro forma council bill would adopt a set of amendments to a traffic code in the Seattle Municipal Code to ensure that it conforms with changes to Washington state law. This represents an annual exercise undertaken by the City and the Council to update our local traffic codes to reflect changes made to the state's traffic code in each legislative session. State law prohibits local jurisdictions from enacting or enforcing any ordinance in conflict with the provisions of state traffic laws. And this legislation would ensure the cities, the city, remains in compliance with applicable traffic laws at the Washington state level. As a result, I do recommend that my colleagues support the passage of this legislation to ensure that we continue to have a municipal code that is in compliance and aligned with state law. Are there any additional comments? Agenda Item five Council Bill 120246. Councilmember Petersen, please. Thank you, council president.
