Following is a brief description of these possible financing techniques. 1: Financial resources – special programs/districts http://www.mrsc.org Lift: Local Infrastructure Financing Tool Program CRF: Community Revitalization Financing Act CRL: Community Renewal Law PDA: Public Development Authorities MultiFamTX – Multifamily Tax Exemption Several Washington State laws provide local jurisdictions the opportunity to create special districts to facilitate the development of the community by capturing new revenue from existing taxing structures. These new revenues are then captured to pay debt service on the bonds issued to enhance infrastructure to improve the community. The following describes the current special districts available to Washington communities:  Lift: Local Infrastructure Financing Tool Program - In 2006, the Local Infrastructure Financing Tool (LIFT) program was created and made available to certain local governments for financing local public improvement projects intended to encourage economic development or redevelopment. As part of the LIFT program, a sponsoring jurisdiction (city, town, county, port district, or federally recognized Indian tribe) creates a “revenue development area” from which annual increases in revenues from local sales/use taxes and local property taxes are measured and used. Such increases in revenues and any additional funds from other local public sources are used to pay for public improvements in the revenue development area and are also used to match a limited amount of state contribution. Nine projects have been awarded state contributions under the LIFT program. The projects are located in Bellingham, Bothell, Everett, Federal Way, Mount Vernon, Puyallup, Vancouver, Yakima, and Spokane County. The application process for the LIFT program is currently closed. Approval of additional projects and awards by CERB would require future legislative action  LRF: Local Revitalization Financing Program - In 2009, The Local Revitalization Financing (LRF) Program was created by Second Substitute Senate Bill 5045 (2SSB 5045). The LRF program authorizes cities, towns, counties, and port districts to create a “revitalization area” (RA) and allows certain increases in local sales and use tax revenues and local property tax revenues generated from within the revitalization area, additional funds from other local public sources, and a state contribution to be used for payment of bonds issued for financing local public improvements within the revitalization area. This program is very similar to the LIFT program. Thirteen projects have been approved for state contributions under LRF. The projects are located in Auburn, Bellevue, Bremerton, Federal Way, Kennewick (Southridge) Renton, Spokane, Tacoma, University Place, Vancouver, Wenatchee, Clark County, and Whitman County. The application process for awarding a state contribution is currently closed. This program is still available for use at the local level without a state contribution.  CRF: Community Revitalization Financing Act - In 2001, the Community Revitalization Financing (CRF) Act was created. It authorized cities, towns, counties, and port districts to create a tax “increment area” and finance public improvements within the area by using increased revenues from local property taxes generated within the area. Some specifics•  An increment area cannot be created without approval of the local governments imposing at least 75 percent of the regular property taxes within the area ---PAGE BREAK--- D-2 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan  The incremental local property taxes under this program are calculated on 75 percent of any increase in assessed value in the increment area.  Any fire protection district with geographic boundaries in the increment area must agree to participate for the project to proceed.  CRF increment areas are created and administered at the local government level.  The CRF Act does not include a state contribution. Status and availability of program:  There are currently five increment areas located in Spokane County.  This program is currently available for local government use  CRL: Community Renewal Law - RCW 35.81 was updated by the state legislature in 2002. The Community Renewal Law, as it is called, empowers cities “to undertake and carry out community renewal projects”. Community Renewal projects are defined as “undertakings for the elimination and for the prevention of blight or spread of blight”. Blight under this provision is defined as an activity or area that “substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of the city or retards the provision of housing accommodations or constitutes an economic or social liability, and/or is determined or constitutes a menace to the public, health, welfare and morals”. This provision gives cities the right to act on “economic blight”, such as persistent high levels of unemployment or poverty, excessive land coverage, tax delinquencies and defective or inadequate street layout, lot layout or obsolete platting”. Blight elimination and prevention can take the form of:  Acquisition and demolition of blighted areas or buildings  Construction of infrastructure  Making land available for development or redevelopment by private enterprise  Making loans or grants for job creation or retention The city may exercise the duties above or may designate a separate community renewal agency for those purposes. The city or the community renewal agency must prepare a Community Renewal Plan order to undertake any of the activities above Community renewal agencies typically are created either because the city concerned wants an independent “take charge” single purpose organization to push through the improvements or because multiple jurisdictions are involved. . Recent court decisions in eminent domain condemnation cases have called into question the ability of cities to condemn private property for economic development purposes.  PDA; Public Development Authorities- Under RCW 35.21.730, et seq., general purpose local government may establish "public corporations, commissions or authorities." These special purpose quasi-municipal corporations have become known as "PDA's." The statutory purpose for the creation of a public corporation under this statute is to improve the administration of authorized federal grants or programs, to improve governmental efficiency and services, or to improve the general living conditions in the urban areas of the state. The provision was initially enacted to authorize counties, cities, and towns to participate in and implement federally-assisted programs, including revenue sharing. Many communities have established public corporations for a variety of public purposes. In the opinion of many municipal attorneys, a public corporation created under RCW 35.21.730, et seq. is best used for unusual endeavors, which for a variety of reasons; the parent municipality would not want to undertake itself.  MultiFamTX – Multifamily Tax Exemptions - RCW 84.14 allows cities over 100,000 in population or the largest city in a county to create residential target areas where renovated or new multifamily housing projects of more than 4 units may upon application and acceptance receive a ten (10) year exemption from ad valorem property taxes. Each project must be within a designated area and provide 20 percent of all unit as affordable to low and moderate income residents. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-3 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan 2.

Projects should target job growth and long- term economic prosperity. 2.5: Federal planning grants 2.6: Economic Development Administration (EDA) http://www.eda.gov/ The Economic Development Administration, under the US Department of Commerce, was created to generate jobs, help retain existing jobs, and stimulate industrial and commercial growth in rural and urban areas experiencing high unemployment, low income, or severe economic distress. EDA works in partnership with state and local governments, regional economic development districts, public and private nonprofit organizations, and Indian tribes to empower communities to plan and implement locally and regionally-developed economic development and revitalization strategies. Programs include: EAP – Economic Adjustment Program PPG – Partnership Planning Grants STPG – Short Term Planning Grants  EAP: Economic Adjustment Program – supports strategic planning, project implementation, and revolving loan funds. Strategy grants help organize and carry out a planning process resulting in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) tailored to a community’s specific economic problems and opportunities. Implementation grants support activities identified in an approved CEDS which may include, but are not limited to, the creation or expansion of strategically targeted business development and financing programs such as, construction of infrastructure improvements, organizational development, and market or industry research and analysis. Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) grants may also be used to implement a CEDS.  PPG: Partnership Planning Grants - for economic development districts are awarded to establish and implement effective economic development programs such as the preparation and maintenance of Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS) and implementation of the elements of the strategy. PPG funds help EDA partners develop local comprehensive planning participatory processes leading to the formulation and implementation of economic development strategies.  STPG: Short Term Planning Grants - provide support for significant new economic development planning, policymaking and implementation efforts; and establish comprehensive economic development planning processes cooperatively with state and economic development districts. Eligible activities include the preparation and maintenance of continuous comprehensive economic development planning processes, coordination of multi- jurisdictional planning efforts, development of institutional capacity, diversification of local economic base, and implementation of programs, projects, and procedures designed to create and retain permanent jobs and increase incomes. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-6 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan 3: Financial resources - infrastructure Following is a brief analysis of the methods provided for by state and local law that the city may and has used to finance capital improvements. 3.1: Debt financing BFund - Borrowed Fund RBond - Revenue Bond IRBond - Industrial Revenue Bond GOBond - General Obligation Bond CBond - Councilmanic Bond BondCA - Bond Cap Allocation  BFund: Short-term Borrowed Fund - local governments may occasionally utilize short-term financing through local banks to finance capital improvement programs.  Rbonds: Revenue Bond - as authorized in the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), Council may issue nonvoter approved Revenue Bonds where principal and interest payments can be financed from a guaranteed source of revenue. Revenue bonds may be used to finance publicly owned facilities, such as parking garages or electric power plants. Interest rates tend to be higher for revenue bonds than for general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds may be approved without voter referendum. Revenue bonds have no effect on the city's tax revenues because they are repaid from revenues derived from the sale of services.  IRBond: Industrial Revenue Bond - are issued by a local government, but actually assumed by companies or industries that use the revenue for construction of plants or facilities. Industrial revenue bonds incur comparatively low interest rates due to the tax-exempt status, and are the responsibility of the private sector industry.  GOBond: Unlimited General Obligation Bond - local governments may issue "excess levies" or general obligation bonds that increase the regular property tax levy above statutory limits if the proposal is approved by over 60% of the voters in a general election. Unlimited general obligation bonds must be approved by at least 60% of the resident voters during an election that has a turnout of at least 40% of those who in the last state general election. The bond must be repaid from a special ("outside") levy that is not governed by the 1% property tax statutory limitation on the property tax growth rate. Total indebtedness that may be incurred by limited and unlimited general obligation bonds together, however, may not exceed 2.5% of the assessed valuation of the city. Monies authorized by limited (commissioner) and unlimited general obligation bonds must be spent within 3 years of authorization to avoid arbitrage requirements unless invested at less than bond yield. In addition, bonds may be used to construct but not maintain or operate facilities. Facility maintenance and operation costs must be paid from the annual general fund levy - which is subject to the 1% property tax statutory limitation on the property tax growth rate, or by voter authorization of special annual or biannual operating levy, or by user fees or charges where possible. General obligation bonds may be a useful source for capital facility acquisition and development monies, particularly for specific types of projects that have a broad appeal to the electorate.  CBond: Limited General Obligation (Commissioner or Councilmanic) Bond - Councilmanic bonds may be issued without voter approval by the City Council for any facility development purpose. The total amount of all issued limited obligation bonds may not exceed 0.75% of the assessed valuation of all city property. Limited obligation bonds must be paid directly from a dedicated or specially designated source from the annual proceeds of the city's general fund levy (an "inside levy") which is subject to the 1% property tax statutory limitation on the property tax growth rate. Therefore, debt service on limited obligation bonds may reduce the amount of annual revenue available for current operating expenses and the financial flexibility the Council may need to respond to annual budget priorities. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-7 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan For this reason, Councilmanic bonds are usually only used for the most pressing capital improvement needs. Therefore, Councilmanic bonds should be considered as a sparing source of capital facility development revenues in light of other funding requirements and limitations that the general fund must finance.  BondCAP: Bond Cap Allocation – program assists businesses and local governments to provide tax-exempt bond sales for environmental protection, housing, industrial development and facilities providing for electricity, water, and solid waste disposal. The program provides the legally required review and approval for the state to meet federal tax laws on the issuance of tax-exempt bonds classified as “private activity”. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-8 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan 3.2: Local multi-purposes levies PTax - Ad Valorem Property Tax B&OTax - Business & Occupation Tax LOSTax - Local Option Sales Tax MVETax - Motor Vehicle Excise Tax UTax - Utility Tax REET - Real Estate Excise Tax  PTax: Ad Valorem Property Taxes - cities may levy a general governmental property tax at a rate up to $1.80 per $1,000 assessed value. Cities may levy an additional $2.25 per $1,000 assessed value for road construction and maintenance needs on the assessed value of taxable property. In 2001, Washington State law was amended by a statutory provision limiting the growth of revenue realized from regular property taxes to 1% per year of the highest amount levied in the last 3 years before adjustments for new construction and annexation. If the assessed valuation of all property increases by more than 1% due to revaluation, the law requires the levy rate be decreased accordingly. A temporary or permanent excess levy may be assessed with voter approval. The statute was intended to control local governmental spending by controlling the annual property tax rate of growth. In practice, however, the statute can reduce the effective property tax yield to an annual level far below a jurisdiction's levy authorization, often resulting in a severe impact on a jurisdiction's ability to finance basic governmental needs, particularly if a county or city experiences major population growth. General funds may be used to develop every type of community facility including city halls, police stations and courts, park and recreational facilities, road and trail constructions, and most utility improvements. However, general funds should be considered as a last source of capital improvement revenues in light of other funding requirements and limitations that the general fund must finance.  B&OTax: Business & Occupation Tax – RCW 35.11 authorizes no more than 0.2% of gross value of business activity may be assessed on the gross or net income of businesses. Voter approval is required for any assessment or increase of the tax. Revenue may be used for new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities.  LOSTax: Local Option Sales Tax – may be levied up to 1% of all retail sales and uses. Local governments that levy the second 0.5% may participate in the state’s sales tax equalization fund. Assessment of the option tax requires voter approval. Revenue may be used for new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities.  MVETax: Motor Vehicle Excise Tax - Washington State (RCW 82.44) collects an annual excise tax that is paid by motor vehicle owners and administered by the Washington State Department of Licensing. Cities receive 17% of the base allocation. Cities are required to spend these funds for police and fire protection and the preservation of public health. The revenues may also be spent on capital facilities including roadway improvements. RCW 47.30.050 requires that local governments collect and dedicate not less than 0.005% of the total amount of MVET funds received during the fiscal year for the purpose of developing paths and trails.  UTax: Utility Tax – RCW 82.16 authorizes a tax on the gross receipts of electric, gas, telephone, cable television, water and sewer, and stormwater utilities. Cities have the discretion of levying a utility tax up to 6% of gross receipts. Voter approval is required for an increase above the 6% maximum. Revenue may be used for new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities.  REET: Real Estate Excise Tax – RCW 82.46 authorizes local governments to enact up to 0.25% of the annual sales for real estate for capital facilities. The Growth Management Act authorizes another 0.25% for capital facilities. Revenues must be used solely for financing new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities, as specified in the capital facilities plan. An additional option is available under RCW 82.46.070 for the acquisition and maintenance of conservation areas if approved by a majority of the voters of the county. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-9 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan The first and second REET may be used for the following capital facilities:  The planning, acquisition, construction, reconstruction, repair, replacement, rehabilitation, or improvement of streets, roads, highways, sidewalks, street and road lighting systems, traffic signals, bridges, domestic water systems, and storm and sanitary sewer systems, or  The planning, construction, repair, rehabilitation, or improvement of parks and recreational facilities. In addition, the second REET may be used for the following:  The acquisition of parks and recreational facilities, or  The planning, acquisition, construction, repair, replacement, rehabilitation, or improvement of law enforcement facilities, protection of facilities, trails, libraries, administrative and judicial facilities, and river and/or floodway/flood control projects and housing projects subject to certain limitations. 3.3: Local single purpose levies HMTax - Hotel/Motel Tax EMSTax - Emergency Medical Services Tax TIB - Transportation Improvement Board LOVLFee - Local Option Vehicle License Fee SUC - Street Utility Charge MVFTax -AS - Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax - Arterial Streets MVFTax -CS - Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax - City Streets LOFTax - Local Option Fuel Tax CPTax - Commercial Parking Tax TBD - Transportation Benefit District SDUFee - Storm Drain Utility Fee SDPay - Storm Drainage Payment in Lieu of Assessment  HMTax: Hotel/Motel Tax – is a sales tax levy collected on certain hotel and motel business categories for the purpose of promoting tourism. Revenues may be used for planning, promotional programs, or capital facilities that directly enhance tourism and benefit the hotel and motel industry.  EMSTax: Emergency Medical Services Tax – is a property tax levy of $0.25 for emergency medical services. Revenues may be used for new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities.  TIB: Transportation Improvement Board - the Washington State Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) disburses revenues generated from motor vehicle taxes to cities, urban counties, and transportation benefit districts for the purpose of alleviating and preventing traffic congestion caused by economic development or growth. Projects must be multi-agency, multi-modal, congestion related, related to economic development activities, and partially funded locally.  LOVLFee: Local Option Vehicle License Fee - the Transportation Improvement Act (ESSB 6358 – RCW 82.80) authorizes countywide (no county levy) local option fees up to $15.00 maximum per vehicle registered in the county. Revenues are distributed back to the county and cities within the county levying the tax on a prorated per capita basis (1.0 for population in incorporated areas). Revenues must be spent for "general transportation purposes" including the construction, maintenance, and operation of county streets, country roads and state highways, policing of local roads, public transportation, high capacity transportation, transportation planning and design and other transportation related activities. The local option fee does not require voter approval.  SUC: Street Utility Charge – RCW 35.95.040 authorizes cities to charge for city street utilities to maintain, operate, and preserve city streets. Facility that may be included in a street utility include street lighting, traffic control devices, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, parking facilities, and drainage facilities. Businesses and households may be charged a fee up to 50% of the acutual cost of construction, maintenance, and operations, while the city provides the remainder. The fee charged to businesses is based on the number of employees and may not exceed $2.00 per full-time employee per month. Owners or occupants of residential properties are charged a fee per household that may not exceed $2.00 per month.  MVFTax-AS: Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax - Arterial Streets - RCW 82.36 authorizes a tax that is collected by the Washington State Department of Licensing and paid by gasoline distributors. Cities ---PAGE BREAK--- D-10 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan receive 22.78% of the motor vehicle fuel tax receipts. The revenues must be spent for "highway purposes" including the construction, maintenance, and operation of streets and roads.  MVFTax-CS: Local Option Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax - City Streets - the Transportation Improvement Act (ESSB 6358) authorizes a countywide (no county levy) local option tax equivalent to 10% of statewide Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax and a special fuel tax of $0.023 per gallon. Revenues are distributed back to the county and cities within the county levying the tax on a prorated per capita basis (1.0 for population in incorporated areas). Revenues must be spent for "highway purposes" including the construction, maintenance, and operation of county streets, county roads, and state highways, policing of local roads, county ferries, and related activities. The local option tax requires voter approval.  LOFTax: Local Option Fuel Tax – RCW 82.80 authorizes a countywide voter approved tax equivalent to 10% of the statewide Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax and a special fuel tax of $0.023 cents per gallon. LOFT revenue is to be distributed to the city on a weighed per capita basis. Revenues must be spent for highway (city streets, county roads, and state highways) construction, maintenance, or operation; the policing of local roads; or highway related activities.  CPTax: Commercial Parking Tax – RCW 82.80 authorizes a tax on commercial parking businesses, but does not set rates. Revenues must be spent for “general transportation purposes” including highways, public transportation, high-capacity transportation, transportation planning and design, and other transportation- related activities.  TBD: Transportation Benefit District – RCW 35.21.225 authorizes cities to create transportation districts with independent taxing authority for the purposes of acquiring, constructing, improving, providing, and funding any city street, county road, or state highway improvement within the district. The special district’s tax base in used to finance capital facilities. The district may generate revenues through property tax excess levies, general obligation bonds (including councilmanic bonds), local improvement districts, and development fees. Voter approval is required for bonds and excess property tax levies. Council approval is required for councilmanic bonds, special assessments, and development fees. Transportation improvements funded with district revenues must be consistent with state, regional, and local transportation plans; necessitated by existing or reasonable foreseeable congestion levels attributable to economic growth; and partially funded by local government or private developer contributions, or a combination of such contributions.  SDUFee: Storm Drain Utility Fee – is a city or county authorized fee to support storm drainage capital improvements. The fee is usually a flat rate per residential equivalency based on an average amount of impervious surface. Commercial property is commonly assessed a rate based on a fixed number of residential equivalencies.  SDPay: Storm Drainage Payment in Lieu of Assessment – cities may authorize storm drainage charges in lieu of assessments that can be used for construction, maintenance, and/or repair of storm drainage facilities, acquisition of property or related debt service. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-11 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan 3.4: Local non-levy financing mechanisms RFund - Reserve Fund GMAFee - GMA Growth Impact Fee F&C - Fines, Forfeitures, and Charges UFee - Water, Sewer, Stormwater User Fees SUC - Street Utility Charges LID - Local Improvement District LID – Assessment Reimbursement Accounts SAD - Special Assessment District SPD - Special Purpose District Late-c – Latecomer Agreements EMS - Fire Protection & Emergency Medical Services PRSA - Parks & Recreation Service Area PIA, PBIA - Parking & Business Improvement Area SEPA - State Environmental Protection Act Mitigation LAgrt- Lease Agreements Prvt - Privatization CXF- Current Expense Fund  RFund: Reserve Funds - revenue is accumulated in advance and earmarked for capital improvements. Sources of funds can be surplus revenues, funds in depreciation reserves, or funds resulting from sale of capital assets.  GMAFee: GMA Growth Impact Fees - the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA - Chapter 36.70A of the Revised Code of Washington and RCW 82.02.050-090) authorizes cities and counties to collect growth impact fees from developers to offset the impact caused by new developments within each jurisdiction's boundaries. The growth impact fees may be collected from developers in an amount less than 100% of the cost of sustaining the jurisdiction's schools, transportation, and park facility existing level-of-service (ELOS) as a result of the developer's project impact. The growth impact fees are usually collected at the issuance of building permits or certificates of occupancy. A developer may elect to pay the growth impact fee rather than provide on-site improvements when the:  land is determined to not be suitable for school, road, or park purposes and/or  the development can not sustain a comparable school, road or park improvement and/or  for other reasons jointly determined by the developer and the city. Impact fees are flat rates per person or dwelling units (by number of persons per type). Adjustments must be made to fee calculations to account for school, road or park costs that are paid by other sources of revenue such as grants and general obligation bonds. Additional credits may be given to developers who contribute land, improvements or other assets. Impact fees authorized by ESHB 2929 do not include any other form of developer contributions or exaction. Other forms of exaction that are excluded consist of mitigation or voluntary payments authorized by the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA - RCW 43.21C), local improvement districts or other special assessment districts, linkage fees, or land donations or fees in lieu of land. Growth impact fees can only be used to acquire or develop new school, road, or park facilities, and not to maintain or operate facilities or programs. Impact fees must be used for capital facilities needed by growth and not for current levels-of-service or operating expenses deficiencies. The collected fees must be spent within 6 years of the date of collection for a facility improvement that benefits the service area within which the project was located. Impact fees must show a rational nexus of benefit between the payer of the fee and the expenditures of the fee. Growth impact fees can provide a major source of project monies for all types of school, road or park acquisitions and developments. This assumes the assessed fee amount is close to the real or 100% impact and the city and county collect the fee on an area-wide basis within the urban growth area. In accordance with the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA), a city must have an adopted comprehensive plan in place ---PAGE BREAK--- D-12 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan that satisfies GMA requirements before the jurisdiction can implement a growth impact fee.  F&C: Fines, Forfeitures, and Charges - includes various administrative fees and user charges for services and facilities operated by the jurisdiction. Examples are franchise fees, sales of public documents, property appraisal fees, fines, forfeitures, licenses, permits, income received as interest from various funds, sale of public property, rental income, and all private contributions to the jurisdiction. Revenue from these sources may be restricted in use.  WUFee: Water User Fees - under state law, cities may collect rate charges from each residential and commercial consumer, usually based on the volume of water used per account. Water utility user fees may be charged on a flat fee per account, usually at time of development, and thereafter on a measurable quantity of water consumed per account. The revenue may be used for capital facilities as well as operating and maintenance costs.  SUFee: Sewer User Fees - under state law, cities may collect rate charges from each generator of wastewater. User fees are based on the amount of potable water consumed, on the assumption there is a correlation between water consumption and wastewater generation. Sewer utility user fees may be charged on a flat fee per account and are usually collected at the time of development, and thereafter on a assessed charge per volume of waste generated per account. Fee revenues may be used for capital facilities as well as operating and maintenance fees.  SWUFee: Stormwater User Fees - under state law, cities may collect rate charges from each generator of stormwater runoff. Impact or user fees are based on the amount of stormwater generated per developed property that is not held on-site, on the assumption there is a correlation between off-site discharge and stormwater improvements elsewhere in the city. Stormwater utility user fees may be charged on a flat fee per account and are usually collected at the time of development, and thereafter on a assessed charge per volume of stormwater generated per account. Fee revenues may be used for capital facilities as well as operating and maintenance fees.  SUC: Street Utility Charge – may be fees up to 50% of actual costs of street construction, maintenance, and operations charged to businesses and households. The tax requires voter approval. The fee charged to businesses is based on the number of employees and cannot exceed $2.00 per employee per month. Owners or occupants of residential property are charged a fee per household that cannot exceed $2.00 per month. Both businesses and households must be charged. Revenue may be used for activities such as street lighting, traffic control devices, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, parking facilities, and drainage facilities.  LID: Local Improvement District - property owners may petition (or vote in response to a request from a local government) to adopt an annual tax assessment for the purpose of improving the public right-of-way abutting their property. A majority approval (the percentage to be decided by the local government) can establish an amortized payment schedule to finance sidewalk, landscaping, parking, streetscape, or other improvements to the public or private abutting properties. The assessments may be amortized over generous time periods at low interest charges based on each property's proportionate share of the improvement cost - usually assessed on a linear foot frontage formula.  LID ARA – Assessment Reimbursement Account Local Improvement District - RCW 35.43.188 provides a mechanism by which a major property owner/developer can undertake to make local improvement district assessment payments on behalf of owners of “underdeveloped” properties within an LID. This enables a major developer to commit to paying LID assessments for properties that are not ready to develop but which are subject to assessment because they benefit from the infrastructure improvements financed by an LID. Assessment reimbursement accounts can be established by a city in an LID formation ordinance. The ordinance provides that LID assessments on properties the city council deems “underdeveloped” will be paid by a major property owner who ---PAGE BREAK--- D-13 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan elects to undertake payment for others. “Underdeveloped” means properties that the council determines are undeveloped or are not developed to their highest and best use, and are likely to be developed or redeveloped before the dissolution of the district.” Dissolution of an LID means the time when all LID assessments have been paid, a date that is typically later than when all an LID’s bonds are retired.  SAD: Special Assessment District - service entities completely or partially outside of the jurisdiction. Special assessments are levied against those who directly benefit from the new service or facility. Special assessment districts include local improvement districts (LIDs), road improvement districts (RIDs), utility improvement districts (UIDs), and the collection of development fees. Funds must be used solely to finance the purpose for which the special assessment district was created. Note – most cities require property owners to covenant not to protest the formation of a LID for street and UID for utility improvements as a condition of development permits where appropriate. This is one of the primary strategies for making improvements for growth.  SPD: Special Purpose District – RCW 67.38.130 authorizes a specified service often encompassing more than one jurisdiction. Included are districts for fire facilities, hospitals, libraries, metropolitan parks, airports, ferries, parks and recreation facilities, cultural arts/stadiums and convention centers, sewers, water flood controls, irrigation, and cemeteries. Voter approval is required for airport, parks and recreation, and cultural arts/stadium and convention districts. Special assessment districts have the authority to impose levies or charges up to a funding limit of $0.25 per $1,000 assessed valuation. Special assessment district funds must be used solely to finance the purpose for which the special purpose district was created.  Latecomers Agreements - Latecomer agreements, also referred to as recovery contracts or reimbursement agreements, allow a property owner who has installed street or utility improvements to recover a portion of the costs of those improvements from other property owners who later develop property in the vicinity and use the improvements. Two different statutes, chapter 35.72 RCW for streets, and chapter 35.91 RCW for utilities, govern these. Both chapters now allow a municipality to be considered as a property owner that can be reimbursed under a latecomer agreement, per a 2009 change in chapter 35.91 RCW  EMS: Fire Protection & Emergency Medical Services – state legislation authorizes up to $0.50 per $1,000 assessed valuation property tax levy that may be enacted by fire and hospital districts, cities and towns, and counties.  FIF: Fire Impact Fees – RCW 82.02.050-090 authorizes a charge (impact fee) to be paid by new development for its “fair share” of the cost of fire protection and emergency medical facilities required to served the development. Impact fees must be used for capital facilities necessitated by growth, and not to correct existing deficiencies in levels of service. Impact fees cannot be used for operating expenses.  PRSA: Parks & Recreation Service Area – RCW 36.68.400 authorizes voters to approve formation of park and recreation service areas as junior taxing districts for the purpose of financing the acquisition, construction, improvement, maintenance, or operation of any park, senior citizen activity center, zoo, aquarium, or recreational facility. PRSAs may assess up to $0.15 per $1,000 assessed valuation subject to voter approval. A PRSA can generate revenue from either the regular or excess property tax levies and through general obligation bonds, subject to voter approval. Revenue must be used for capital facilities maintenance and operation.  PIA: Parking Improvement Areas or Commercial Parking Tax - the Transportation Improvement Act (ESHB 6358) authorizes a tax on commercial parking businesses based on gross proceeds or the number of parking stalls, or on the customers similar to an admissions tax. The revenues must be spent for "general transportation purposes" including the construction, maintenance, and operation of streets, public transportation, the planning and design, and other transportation related activities such as parking. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-14 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan A majority approval of the participating property owners (the percentage to be decided by the local government) can establish an amortized payment schedule to finance off-street parking or other improvements of benefit to the participating properties. The assessments may be amortized over generous time periods at low interest charges, based on each property's proportionate share of the improvement cost - usually assessed on a per parking stall formula.  PBIA: Parking & Business Improvement Areas - Chapter 35.87A RCW authorizes counties, cities and towns to establish, after a petition submitted by businesses within the area, or by resolution adopted by the legislative body, a parking and business improvement area for the purposes set forth in RCW 35.87A.010. A parking and business improvement area (PBIA) is designed to aid general economic development and to facilitate merchant and business cooperation. A PBIA is a local self-help funding mechanism that allows businesses and property owners within a defined area to establish a special assessment district. Funds raised can be used to provide management, services, facilities, and programs to the district. The activities in a parking and business improvement area are financed through a special assessment that is imposed on businesses, multifamily residential developments, and mixed-use developments located within the geographic boundaries of the area. The assessments can be used to finance:  construction, acquisition, or maintenance of parking facilities in the area;  decoration of public areas;  promotion of public events in public places in the area;  furnishing of music in any public place in the area;  provision of maintenance and security of common public areas; or management, planning, and promotion of the area, including the promotion of retail trade activities in the area.  SEPA: State Environmental Protection Act - Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA - RCW 43.21C) allows local governments to impose mitigated on-site improvements or fee assessments with which to finance off-site improvements that are caused by a property's development. SEPA mitigation may cover a variety of physical improvements that are affected by the property's proposed land use including sidewalks, trails, roads and parking areas, utilities, and other supporting infrastructure systems. SEPA mitigation must be proportionately related to the property's impact on infrastructure requirements.  LAgrt: Lease Agreements - allow the procurement of a capital facility through lease payments to the owner of a facility. Several lease package methods can be used. Under the lease-purchase method, the capital facility is built by the private sector and leased back to the local government. At the end of the lease, the facility may be turned over to the municipality without any future payment. At that point, the lease payments will have paid the construction cost plus interest.  Prvt: Privatization - generally defined as the provision of a public service by the private sector. Many arrangements are possible under this method ranging from a totally private venture to systems of public/private arrangements, including industrial revenue bonds.  CXF – Current Expense Fund – those regular sources of revenue to the city such as local state sales tax and property tax shares that are used for general city functions. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-15 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan 3.5: State grants and loans LIHTC – Low Income Housing Tax Credit CERB - Community Economic Revitalization Board OAHP - Office of Archaeological & Historic Preservation - Historic Preservation Tax Certification Program CLG - Certified Local Government PWTF - Public Works Trust Fund ROC-Recreation and Conservation Office CF - Conservation Futures ALEA - Aquatic Lands Enhancement Act MVET-PTR – Motor Vehicle Excise Tax - Paths & Trails Reserve TEA21 - Transportation Efficiency Act TEA-21 R/HCIP - Railway/Highway Crossing Improvement Program STP - Surface Transportation Program FABRP - Federal Aid Bridge Replacement Program FAER - Federal Aid Emergency Relief UATA - Urban Arterial Trust Account TIA - Transportation Improvement Account TIB - Transportation Improvement Board CCWF - Centennial Clean Water Fund Water Pollution Control State Revolving Fund CCFF - Child Care Facility Fund BFTA - Building for the Arts CSFP - Community Services Facilities Program LCP - Local Capital Projects NCIP -Job Creation & Infrastructure  LIHTC – Low Income Housing Tax Credit - The LIHTC is based on section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code enacted in 1986 and made permanent in 1993. By providing a credit against tax liability or a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the amount of liability, the LIHTC is an incentive for individuals and corporations to invest in the construction or rehabilitation of housing for low-income families. Tax credits have become the single most important source of capital subsidy in the development of affordable rental housing. The Washington State Housing Finance Commission administers the LIHTC program in this state.  CERB: Community Economic Revitalization Board - are low interest loans (rate fluctuates with state bond rate) and occasional grants to finance infrastructure projects for a specific private sector development. CERB funding is available only for projects that will result in specific private developments or expansions in manufacturing and businesses that support the trading of goods and services outside of the state's borders. CERB projects must create or retain jobs. The CERB distributes CERF funds primarily to applicants who indicate prior commitment to project. CERB revenue is restricted in the type of project and may not be used for maintenance and operations. CERB supports the following business sectors - Manufacturing, production, food processing, assembly, warehousing, industrial distribution, advanced technology and research and development, recycling facilities, or businesses that substantially support the trading of goods and services outside of Washington State borders. In rural counties, CERB can support tourism development projects that meet the program’s primary goal of supporting business growth and job creation.  HPG: Historic Preservation Grants – are available on an annual basis from the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (OAHP) to local historic preservation programs. Historic preservation grants may be used for:  historic preservation planning;  cultural resource survey and inventory;  nomination of properties to the National Register of Historic Places; and  public education and awareness efforts. To be eligible for grants, communities must be a Certified Local Government (CLG) as approved by OAHP. In addition, when funds are available, OAHP awards grants for the acquisition or rehabilitation of National Register listed for eligible properties. Grant awards are predicated on the availability of funds and require a match.  Historic Preservation Tax Certification Program – is a federal investment tax credit available for buildings in Washington that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. National Register properties must be income producing, which includes ---PAGE BREAK--- D-16 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan commercial, retail, office, residential, rental or industrial uses, to be eligible.  CLG: Certified Local Government – can be awarded to a local government that establishes a historic preservation program meeting federal and state standards. CLG status requires a local government to encourage, develop, and maintain its local preservation efforts with development plans. CLGs may also apply for special grants from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), obtain technical assistance and training from the SHPO, participate in the National Register nomination process, and assist with statewide preservation programs and planning. CLGs may also quality for a Special Tax Valuation available for both commercial and residential properties that have rehabilitation costs equaling 25% of more of the buildings assessed value. The rehabilitation costs may be subtracted from the assessed value of the property for a period of 10 years.  PWTF: Public Works Trust Fund - are low interest loans for financing capital facility construction, public works emergency planning, and capital improvement planning. To apply for the loans, the city must have a capital facilities plan in place and must be levying the original 0.25% real estate excise tax (REET). The Washington State Department of Community Development distributes Public Works Trust Funds. Public works trust fund loans for construction projects require matching funds generated only from local revenues or state shared entitlement revenues. Public works emergency planning loans are at a 5% interest rate, and capital improvement planning loans are no interest loans with a 25% match. Public works trust fund revenue may be used to finance new capital facilities, or maintenance and operations at existing facilities. PWTF funds may be used for domestic water, storm sewer, solid waste recycling, sanitary sewer, road, and bridge projects.  ROC: Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office - makes federal monies available for the construction of outdoor park and trail facilities from the National Park Service's Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF).  CF: Conservation Futures - under provisions provided in recent state legislation, counties can elect to levy up to $0.065 per $1,000 of assessed valuation of all county properties to acquire shoreline and other open space lands. The monies can be used to acquire, but not develop or maintain open space conservation lands that are acquired using Conservation Futures funds. Conservation Futures revenues can be a major source of project monies for the acquisition of wildlife habitat, resource conservancies, portions of resource activity lands, and possibly portions of linear trail corridors. Given the program's relatively specialized qualifications, however, the grants can not be a capital source for development projects. In addition, project proposals necessarily have to compete for a share of Conservation Future revenues with other county open space land acquisitions for storm drainage, farmland preservation, floodplain protections or other qualifying programs.  ALEA: Aquatic Lands Enhancement Act - the 1985 Aquatic Lands Enhancement Act (ALEA) initiated on a trial basis, and since renewed and expanded, uses revenues obtained by the Washington Department of Natural Resources from the lease of state owned tidal lands. The ALEA program is administered by the ROC for the development of shoreline related trail improvements and may be applied for the full cost of the proposal.  MVET-PTR: Motor Vehicle Excise Tax - Paths and Trails Reserve - Washington State (RCW 82.44) collects an annual excise tax that is paid by motor vehicle owners and administered by the Washington State Department of Licensing. Cities receive 17% of the base allocation. Cities are required to spend these funds for police and fire protection and the preservation of public health. The revenues may also be spent on capital facilities including roadway improvements. RCW 47.30.050 requires that local governments collect and dedicate not less than 0.005 of the total amount of MVET funds received during the fiscal year for the purpose of developing paths and trails (the Paths and Trails Reserve). The Paths and Trails Reserve was established under State of Washington RCW 47.30 to provide for the establishment and maintenance of paths and trails within the right- of-way of public roads. ---PAGE BREAK--- D-17 Appendix D: Capital Facilities Programming Kennewick Bridge-to-Bridge/River-to-Rail Revitalization Plan Special revenue funds like the paths and trails reserve can create a source of dedicated financing for specific trail projects or local area improvements. Generally, however, the reserves will not create the amount of funds necessary to implement facility projects of a scale needed throughout the city.
