Addressing regional transit authority accountability.

SB 6332 requires an independent performance audit of Washington's regional transit authorities by December 2027, examining their governance, financial management, project delivery, and procurement practices. It also mandates annual reports from community oversight panels to the transportation committee starting in 2026, detailing governance concerns. The bill appropriates $600,000 from the carbon emissions reduction account to fund the audit. This directly affects regional transit agencies, oversight bodies, and legislative committees by establishing new accountability measures.
