Other than funds allocated to the Highline School District for Aviation High School ($15 million) and for the insulation and associated repair and reconstruction of schools (a total Port of Seattle/FAA pledge of $100 million), the Port Commission has not authorized using the Port tax levy money for projects at the airport, because the airport is exclusively supported by user fees such as Passenger Facility Charges (PFCs) and landing fees.
