WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 9, 2010 and a work session on September 23 , 2010 ; and WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Council has considered the Planning Commission ' s findings of fact and reasons for action, conclusions and recommendations relating to the proposed capital facility amendments ; and WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Council hereby adopts the following findings of fact: FINDINGS OF FACT Background Information: 1 . The proposal includes amending the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan as follows : a. Eliminating the level of service standards for government office space in chapter 4 of the comprehensive plan ; b . Adopting the Six-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for Whatcom County Facilities 2011 -2016; and c. Repealing the existing Six-Year CIP for 2009-2014 . Public Notice/Hearing 2 . Notice of the Planning Commission hearing for the subject amendments was posted on. the County ' s website on August 25 , 2010 . 1 3 . Notice of the Planning Commission hearing for the subject amendments was published in the Bellingham Herald on August 29, 2010. 4. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the subject amendments on September 9, 2010 . 5 . The Planning Commission held a work session on the subject amendments on September 23 , 2010 . State Environmental Policy Act 6 . A determination of non-significance (DNS) was issued under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) on August 25 , 2010 . Approval Criteria 7 . Pursuant to WCC 2 . 160 .080, in order to approve the proposed comprehensive plan amendments the Planning Commission and County Council must find all of the following: a. The amendment conforms to the requirements of the Growth Management Act, is internally consistent with the county-wide planning policies and is consistent with any interlocal planning agreements. b . Further studies made or accepted by the Department of Planning and Development Services indicate changed conditions that show need for the amendment. c. The public interest will be served by approving the amendment. In determining. whether the public interest will be served, factors including but not limited to the following shall be considered: i. The anticipated effect upon the rate or distribution of population growth, employment growth, development, and conversion of land as envisioned in the comprehensive plan. ii. The anticipated effect on the ability of the county and/or other service providers, such as cities, schools, water and/or sewer purveyors, fire districts, and others as applicable, to provide adequate services and public facilities including transportation facilities. 2 iii . Anticipated impact upon designated agricultural, forest and mineral resource lands. d. The amendment does not include or facilitate spot zoning. e. Urban growth area amendments that propose the expansion of an urban growth area boundary shall be required to acquire development rights from a designated TDR sending area. Growth Management Act 8 . The Growth Management Act (GMA) establishes planning goals in RCW 36 . 70A.020 to guide adoption of comprehensive plan amendments. 9 . GMA planning goal # 12 is to "Ensure that those public facilities and services necessary to support development shall be adequate to serve the development at the time the development is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current service levels below locally established minimum standards" (RCW 36 .70A. 020( 12)) . 10. The subject amendments include updating the Six-Year CIP for Whatcom County Facilities for the 2011 -2016 planning period. Updating the CIP is one step in the process of planning regional facilities to serve the people of Whatcorn County . 11 . The GMA, at RCW 36.70A .070(3 ), requires that a comprehensive plan must include a capital facilities plan element consisting of: a. An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by public entities, showing the locations and capacities of the capital facilities. b. A forecast of the future needs for such capital facilities. c. The proposed locations and capacities of expanded or new capital facilities. d. At least a six-year plan that will finance such capital facilities within projected funding capacities and clearly identifies sources of public money for such purposes. e. A requirement to reassess the land use element if probable funding .falls short of meeting existing needs and to ensure that the land use element, capital facilities plan element, and financing plan within the capital facilities plan element are coordinated and consistent. 3 ' 12 . The capital facilities element of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan has several components including : . a. Chapter 4 - Capital Facilities ; b. Appendix E — Whatcom County 20-Year Capital Facilities Plan (contains six and 20-year plans for water, sewer, and other facilities) ; and c. Appendix F - The Six-Year Capital Improvement Program for Whatcom County Facilities (addresses only County owned or operated capital facilities) . The subject proposal amends Chapter 4 and Appendix F, but does not amend Appendix E . The Growth Management Act does not require amendments to Appendix E in 2010 . 13 . The Six-Year CIP for Whatcom County Facilities contains an inventory of existing County owned or operated facilities, a forecast of future needs based upon the level of service adopted in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, proposed new County capital facilities, costs and funding sources. 14 . Existing Comprehensive Plan Policy 4A-4 addresses the GMA requirement to reassess the land use element if probable capital facility funding falls short. County-Wide Planning Policies 15 . County-Wide Planning Policy K- 1 indicates that, as part of the comprehensive planning process, the County must identify appropriate land for public facilities that meets the needs of the community including recreation, transportation and human service facilities. 16 . The CIP identifies County park, trail, building and transportation improvements as contemplated by the County Wide Planning Policies. Interlocals ° 17 Existing inter-local agreements between Whatcom County and several cities indicate that the County will consult with the appropriate city in planning new road construction projects within the city ' s urban growth area. Additionally, the inter-local agreements indicate joint planning for parks. 18 . The County Engineer. indicated on August 24, 2010 that the County sends a copy of the six-year transportation improvement program to cities prior to approval , requests comments, and informs cities of the hearing date. The Whatcom County Parks Director stated on August 24, 2010 that the County Parks ' staff maintains a consistent working relationship with appropriate staff from cities on joint park projects and 4 planning. Therefore, it appears that the type of cooperation envisioned by the inter- local agreements is occurring. Further Studies/Changed Conditions 19 . The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan calls for an update of the Six-Year Capital Improvement Program for County facilities every other year. Specifically, Policy 4B- 1 is to: Maintain and update, on at least a biennial basis, a six-year capital improvement program (CIP) that identifies projects, outlines a schedule, and designates realistic funding sources for all county capital projects based on a review of population and revenue conditions existing at that time." 20 . Based upon population projections for the six-year planning period, a revised capital improvement program has been proposed that projects future needs for County owned or operated facilities such as parks, buildings, and correction facilities and presents improvement projects. Public Interest 21 . The goal of the Six-Year CIP for Whatcom County Facilities is to plan for County • owned or operated parks, government buildings, correction facilities, and transportation improvements that will be adequate to serve the people of Whatcom County. The proposed CIP plans for public facilities over the six-year period from 2011 to 2016 based upon projected population growth. Therefore, the proposal should complement the County' s growth and development plans. 22 . The Six-Year CIP for Whatcom County Facilities will have a positive impact on the County ' s ability to provide public facilities by evaluating the need and planning ahead for such facilities. Adverse impacts to other service providers have not been identified. Spot Zoning 23 . The subject proposal does not involve rezoning property. Government Office Space 24 . A level of service standard for government office space serving unincorporated areas is set forth in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. This level of service standard will not be met over the six-year planning period . The reason is that the Consolidated Services Building will be delayed beyond the six-year window because of declining governmental revenue. 5 25 . The "Growth Management Act — Procedural Criteria for Adopting Comprehensive Plans and Development Regulations" state that counties are not required to set level of service standards for facilities that are not necessary for development. It also indicates that administrative offices are not related to growth ( Washington Administrative Code, section 365 - 196-415(2)(b)) . 26. The State Department of Commerce confirmed, in an e-mail of August 2, 2010, that " . . . there is no GMA requirement to include a level of service for government office space in the county comprehensive plan. . ." ' 27. Based upon the current decline in governmental revenues, Whatcom County will not be able to meet the level of service standard for government office space serving unincorporated areas . However, the Growth Management Act does not require Whatcom County to have a level of service standards for government office space. Therefore, the level of service standards for office space in Chapter 4 of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan should be eliminated. . CONCLUSIONS 1 . The proposed amendments satisfy the approval criteria of WCC 2 . 160 . 080. 2. The proposed amendments conform to applicable requirements of the Growth Management Act and are consistent with county-wide planning policies. 3. Changed conditions indicate a need for the proposed amendments . These changed conditions include updated inventories of County facilities, new population projections and declining governmental revenue. 4 . The proposed amendments serve the public interest by guiding investment of County resources to provide facilities necessary to serve the people of Whatcom County. 5 . The proposed amendments do not facilitate spot zoning. 6 . NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Whatcom County Council that: Section 1 . Chapter 4 of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan is hereby amended as shown on Exhibit 1 . Section 2 .

The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan calls for the County to develop and update the Six-Year Capital Improvement Program for County projects. The main purpose of this Capital Improvement Program is to plan County facilities to serve the people of Whatcom County over the next six years. Growth Management Act Requirements According to the Growth Management Act, a county's capital facilities plan must include five items, which are shown below. A. An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by public entities, showing the locations and capacities of the capital facilities. Current inventories of existing County capital facilities , based upon information provided by various County departments, are included in each chapter of this document. B. A forecast of the future needs for such capital facilities. Chapters 4 and 6 of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan establish "levels of service" standards for County parks , administrative facilities ( i .e . Sheriffs office space), correction facilities, and transportation . Level of service standards are expressed in acres of parkland needed for every 1 , 000 people in the County, square feet of Sheriffs office space needed to serve each . person in the County, etc. Forecasts of future needs for capital facilities over the six-year planning period are determined by applying the adopted level of service for a given facility to the expected population in the year 2016 . For example, the adopted level of service for developed parkland is 9.6 acres for every 1 , 000 people living in Whatcom County. The County is expected to grow to about 210 ,685 people by the year 2016 . Therefore , a total of 2 , 023 acres of parkland would be needed by the year 2016 to maintain the adopted level of service . Since the County already has 1 , 941 acres of parkland , about 82 additional acres would be needed six years from now ( in 2016) to meet the needs of the growing population . C. Proposed locations and capacities of expanded or new capital facilities. General locations and capacities (acres of parkland , jail beds , etc. ) of proposed new County facilities are indicated in this document. D. At least a six-year plan that will finance such capital facilities within projected funding capacities and clearly identifies sources of public money for such purposes. This Six-Year Capital Improvement Program presents costs and funding sources for proposed County capital facilities (all figures are in 2010 dollars) . The Whatcom County 20-year Capital Facilities Plan (Appendix E of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan ) contains a capital facilities revenue analysis . There are a variety of funding sources that the County utilizes to pay for capital facilities . One potential source is the County's General Fund . The Finance Manager for Whatcom County indicated that, over the six-year planning period , there would be little revenue in the County's General Fund to finance capital facilities . However, the capital facilities proposed in this Six-Year Capital Improvement Program are within Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan F-3 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year C/P 2011-2016 the County's funding capacity. Specifically, Whatcom County's unused limited tax general obligation bond long-term debt capacity at the end of 2009 was $361 , 043,661 , which far exceeds the expenditures proposed by this Six-Year Capital Improvement Program . Therefore, it would be possible to issue bonds to pay for capital facilities if revenue is increased , expenses decreased , or programs reprioritized to make debt service payments. Revenue and expenditure projections for roads and related non-motorized facilities are set forth in the six- year transportation improvement program . E. A requirement to reassess the land use element if probable funding falls short of meeting existing needs and to ensure that the land use element, capital facilities plan element, and financing plan within the capital facilities plan element are coordinated and consistent. Finally, in accordance with the Growth Management Act, a requirement to reassess the land use element of the Comprehensive Plan if probable funding falls short of meeting existing needs and to ensure consistency between plans already exists in the Comprehensive Plan ( Policy 4A-4) . County Charter Provisions In addition to Growth Management Act provisions relating to capital facilities , Section 6 . 30 of the County Charter also requires the County Executive's Office to include a six-year capital improvement program as part of the budget. Contracting for Services Whatcom County may contract with other entities, such as the Council of Governments and the Northwest Regional Council , for vital community services . These contracts represent County participation in providing essential services , alongside other partners , without the need to construct County owned capital facilities, which can be very costly.

With projected population growth in Whatcom County over the next six years , an additional 82 acres of developed/usable parkland would be needed by the year 2016 to meet the adopted level of service . Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan - F-5 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year C/P 2011-2016 Proposed Park Improvement Projects Seven park improvement projects are proposed to provide additional park space by the year 2016 . These projects would add 853 acres of parkland in Whatcom County, as shown below. Additionally, improvement projects are proposed on existing parkland . These projects will add recreational facilities at these parks , but will not add acreage to the inventory. Examples include picnic areas, restrooms, and parking . Financing for Park Improvement Projects The total cost of the seven proposed park improvement projects is approximately $3 . 3 million over the six- year planning period . These costs would be paid for through grants , Real Estate Excise Tax ( REET), the park improvement fund , Conservation Futures , and flood funds as shown below.

With projected population growth in Whatcom County over the next six years, an additional 66 miles of trails would be needed by the year 2016 to serve the people of Whatcom County. Trail Improvement Projects Five improvement projects are proposed to provide additional trails to meet the anticipated need by the year 2016 . These projects would add 66 miles of trails in Whatcom County, as shown below. Financing for Trail Improvement Projects The total cost of the five proposed trail improvement projects is approximately $ 7 . 3 million over the six-year planning period . These costs would be paid for through grants, REET, Conservation Futures , donations , and , potentially, a levy. This is an ambitious plan and funding needed to provide this level of service will , realistically , have to compete with higher priority functions of County government.

F- 16 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year CIP 2011-2016 CHAPTER 7 - JAILS Existing Jail Facilities The existing County jail was designed for 148 beds , although it currently has 283 beds due to double bunking , internal remodeling and use of temporary beds . In 2009, the average daily population for the main jail was 287. Additionally, the jail is currently not in compliance with the Building Code for double bunking , although a plan has been approved to bring it into compliance. Whatcom County completed construction of a 150 bed minimum security correction facility on Division St. in 2006 . In 2009 , the average daily population for the minimum security facility was 144 . The jail is located in the Public Safety Building next to the County Courthouse in downtown Bellingham and minimum security correction facility is located in the Bakerview Rd . industrial area . EXISTING JAIL BEDS 1 Public Safety Building (311 Grand Ave. ) 283 2 Minimum Security Correction Facility (2030 Division St. ) 150 TOTAL 433 Future Jail Needs A level of service of 1 .42 beds for every 1 , 000 people in the County was adopted in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan . With projected population growth in Whatcom County over the next six years, no additional beds would be needed by the year 2016 to comply with the adopted level of service. Proposed Jail Improvement Projects While the jail facilities are meeting the current adopted level of service , there are concerns among law and justice officials relating to the actual need in the community. This need has been documented by recommendations from the Whatcom County Law and Justice Plan Phase ll Report (June 2000) and in a report entitled Operational Review of the Whatcom County, Washington Jail ( March 2004). In an effort to meet the community need , the County will be the siting and constructing a new law and justice center, tentatively scheduled to open with 600 beds. At the time the new law and justice center is open , the offenders at the minimum-security corrections facility would be relocated to the new center. A location for the law and justice center has not been selected , but two candidate sites in the northwestern portion of the Bellingham urban growth area are currently being evaluated . It is anticipated that the new jail facility will come on line by 2015 . Financing for Jail Improvement Projects The cost of the proposed new jail at the Law and Justice Center is approximately $41 , 000 , 000 within the six- year planning period . These costs would be paid for through the general fund , REET I , public utilities improvement fund , jail fund and bonds .

Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan F- 19 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year CIP 2011-2016 Chapter 9 - TRANSPORTATION ROADS Existing Roads The 2009 inventory shows a total of 943 miles of County roads. Additionally, there are 212 miles of state highways in Whatcom County (including 1-5). Therefore, there is a total of approximately 1 , 155 miles of public roads in Whatcom County. Future Road Needs The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan sets level of service (LOS ) standards for County roads . Future traffic and the level of service for roads can be forecasted using computer-modeling software. The Whatcom Council of Governments and the City of Bellingham both forecast future traffic utilizing computer transportation models. These modeling efforts provide information that will facilitate transportation planning in Whatcom County. Whatcom County accomplishes planning for County road improvements by approving a Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program each year, as required by RCW 36 . 81 . 121 . Proposed Improvement Projects The Whatcom County Council approved the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program for the years 2011 through 2016 under Resolution No . 2010-026 . This six-year plan includes one proposed new road project and several reconstruction projects . The proposed new road project is : • Lincoln Road extension ( Harborview Road to Blaine Road ) While this project is on the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program , construction is not anticipated within the six-year planning period . Rather, preliminary engineering to determine project feasibility may be initiated within this time frame . Another project in this six-year plan is the Birch Bay Drive Pedestrian Facility , which includes pedestrian and non-motorized enhancements along Birch Bay Dr. from Alderson Rd . to Harborview Rd . In addition to the projects in the Six-Year Transportation Program , the Lincoln Road/Birch Point connector is proceeding as a developer funded project, although the project completion date is unknown because of current economic conditions . Financing for Improvement Projects The total cost of the County transportation projects, including reconstruction projects and the ferry improvements , in the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program is $ 19 , 782 , 000 . These costs include $ 12 , 966 , 000 of County funds , with the remainder being funded by the State and Federal governments . A specific breakdown of these costs and revenue projections for road construction are shown in Resolution No . 2010-026 . Information on facilities that may partially be funded through impact fees is provided in Appendix G of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan . Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan F-20 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year CIP 2011-2016 LUMMI FERRY Existing Ferry Facilities Whatcom County currently has one ferry vessel serving Lummi Island . The ferry runs between Lummi Island and Gooseberry Point on a daily basis . Future Ferry Needs The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan sets a level of service of 513 ferry passenger trips annually per capita of Lummi Island population . Based upon projected population , the Lummi ferry will not meet the adopted level of service over the six-year planning period . In 2008 , the County Council decided not to purchase a larger ferry. Therefore , it is appropriate to consider . revising the LOS standard during the next comprehensive plan update. Proposed Ferry Improvement Projects No improvement projects that would add ferry capacity are proposed within the six-year planning period . Financing for Ferry Improvement Projects No improvement projects that would add ferry capacity are proposed within the six-year planning period . Other ferry improvement costs are shown on the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program . • Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan F-21 November, 2010 Version Appendix F - Six-Year CIF 2011-2016 Chapter 10 Stormwater and Flood Protection Facilities Stormwater Management Facilities Public Works Department is responsible for the design , engineering, and construction of county-owned stormwater facilities. Many stormwater facilities are road-related stormwater conveyance systems, such as culverts and ditches, on and adjacen t to county roads. Others are off right-of-way facilities that control storm flows and improve water quality. In response to ( 1 ) increasing federal and state mandates to manage stormwater and (2) the public' s desire to improve stewardship of sensitive watersheds, Whatcom County established in 2005 a Stormwater Section in the Surface Water Division of the Public Works Department. The Stormwater Section is responsible for planning , designing , engineering ; and construction of stormwater facilities. Inventories of existing stormwater facilities are maintained by the Public Works Department. Engineering Services Division maintains an inventory of all road-related facilities. The Surface Water Division maintains an inventory of public and private stormwater facilities in the area covered by the county's NPDES Phase II permit for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems. This inventory includes ditches, culverts catch basins, vaults, ponds and swales. An increasing emphasis on the protection of sensitive watersheds has resulted in the adoption of comprehensive stormwater plans for Lake Whatcom and Birch Bay . A similar plan is currently being developed by the .Lake Samish community. The adopted plans identify work towards planning , design , engineering , and construction of capital projects intended for the next six years. Flood Protection Facilities Related to management of stormwater is the protection of publicly-owned infrastructure and communities from storm-related events like river flooding , lowland flooding , landslides, and coastal storms. Improvements in this category must be consistent with the Flood Control Zone Dist rict's Comprehensive Flood Hazard Management Plan . . Financing for Stormwater and Flood Protection Projects Capital facilities that may be constructed during the next six years are listed below. Projects are expected to be financed by a combination of Real Estate Excise Taxes (REET), grants, countywide Flood Control-Zone District tax revenues, local Flood Control Subzone fees and potentially, the county general fund . Where appropriate, matching contributions from other beneficiaries will be sought.
