Deputy Prnsecuti;gAttorney sioner ATTACHMENT A ·Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities ER 1. INTRODUCTION PURPOSE The Capital Facilities Chapter contains the capital facilities element, one of the six elements required for Mason County's Comprehensive Plan under the Growth Management Act (GMA) (36.70A.070 RCW). This element provides an inventory of existing conditions and publicly owned facilities by quantifying capital facilities currently prnvided by Mason County or by other jurisdictions operating in the County. The chapter also contains goals and policies for the capital facilities operated by Mason County, except for transportation facilities, which are discussed in the Transportation Chapter. The capacity of the County's facilities and the level of service they provide is discussed and compared with the County's desired levels of service. The "level of service" is an objective measure of how well services are provided to the public. Deficiencies and improvement needs are identified, improvement costs are estimated, projects are scheduled for six and 20-year planning horizons, and a six-year finance plan and possible financing options are discussed. Besides the City of Shelton, there are other public organizations and special districts that have capital facilities and taxing authority which exist in the county. These include the school districts, hospital districts, port districts, cemetery district, Public Utility Districts, regional library system, water districts, and fire districts. These districts have their own governing body and capital facilities planning. The County coordinated the comprehensive plan with these bodies, through meetings, correspondence, and by providing draft of the comprehensive plan to these districts for comment. A list of these districts is provided as follows: 1 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 ·(updated January 2015) Capital Facilities Mason County Hospital District #i Mason County Hospital District #2 Port of Allyn Port of Dewatto Port of Grapeview Port of Hoodsport Port of Shelton Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Southside School District #42 Grapeview School District #54 Elma School District #68/137 Shelton School District #309 Mary M Knight School District #311 Pioneer School District #402 North Mason School District #403 Hood Canal School District #404 Fire Fire Fire Fire Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection Protection District #s District #6 District #8 District #9 District #n District #n District #i3 District #i6 District #i7 District #18 Cemetery District #i Be!fair Water District #i Public Utility District #i Public Utility District #3 Hartstene Pointe Water-Sewer District Maggie Lake Water District Tahuya River Valley Water District Trails End Water District District #i District #2 District #3 District #4 ORGANIZATION AND CONTENTS The following section of this chapter includes a list of goals and policies that provides the direction for future capital facility decisions for Mason County. Subsequent sections, 3 through 91 profile and analyze seven types of capital facilities in the County, as follows: .. ., " • • • • Water and Wastewater Utilities Solid Waste Utility Parks and Recreation Facilities County Administration Buildings Police and Criminal Justice Facilities Stormwater Management Facilities Public Works Facilities Sections 3 through g each include a brief description of the existing systems and public entities that provide the facilities. An assessment offuture facility needs is also developed for each category of facility. Section 10 discusses financing for county owned and operated facilities for the six-year financial planning period 2015-2020. FACILITY NEEDS A number of methods can be used to determine Mason County's capital facility needs over the next six and 20-year GMA planning periods. As not all capital facilities require the same level of analysis to determine needed improvements, different analytical techniques can be employed to identify facility needs as long as they accomplish the goal of determining future need for the capital 2 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August1 1998 ·(updated March 2015) Capital Facilities facilities. While the state Growth Management Act requires that level of service (LOS) standards be established to identify transportation improvements, the need for other capital facilities can be assessed using either LOS or planning level assumptions (WAC 365-196-320). The advantage of using LOS standards is the ability to quantify deficiencies and identify improvement needs. The LOS can also be used as a performance standard for concurrency by comparing the service level being provided by a capital facility against the quantitative LOS standard. The service is considered deficient if it does not meet the service level standard that the County has determined it wants to deliver to its residents and users. The LOS approach makes the most sense where there are easily quantifiable facilities or where the state has defined the standards, such as for sewer and water facilities. The less rigorous planning assumptions approach also has advantages. The capital facilities planning assumptions are not quantitative rneasures of facility need. Instead, they identify facility improvements based upon the need to serve growth and development anticipated in the land use element. This approach works best where identification of quantitative measures would be difficult, where there are no statewide standards, or where the necessary information or data to apply quantitative measures would be difficult or too time-consuming to obtain. Facilities such as parks and recreation and stormwaterfadlities might best be handled with this approach. FINANCING Facility needs are identified, and a six-year finance plan is developed, in Section 10 for the following County-owned-and-operated facilities. " • • • Sewer Water Parks and recreation Stormwater This Section also includes the results of facility planning efforts completed by the County for County administrative buildings, police and criminal justice facilities, and solid waste facilities. Financing needs and options are included for these facilities as well. The Section includes by reference the capital facilities plans for Grapeview, Hood Canal, North Mason, Pioneer, and Shelton School Districts, to facilitate orderly growth and coordination in the provision of future capital facility needs. CONCURRENCY MANAGEMENT One of the Growth Management Act goals, referred to as "concurrency/ is the provision of infrastructure facilities and services to serve projected growth at the time such growth occurs, or within a reasonable time afterwards. This starts with identifying specific facility needs using the strategies previously discussed. Another important aspect of concurrency is the ability to monitor the development of infrastructure improvements to assess whether they keep pace with approved development. Concurrency management, as it is called, involves a set of land use and permit approval processes designed to ensure facilities and services keep pace with growth. In some cases, development 3 3/27/2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities codes could be enacted to require that specific LOS standards be promulgated through the development of identified improvements. In other cases, restrictions to growth may be imposed until appropriate service standards for capital facilities are achieved. Land use applications for certain development proposals, in areas targeted for future growth, could have their approvals withheld pending concomitant development of appropriate urban service level facilities (e.g., sewer facilities). The municipality would be responsible for managing the concurrent development of these urban services. Requiring individual developers to fund and implement needed improvements is one possible funding method among a variety of other scenarios (e.g., grants, loans, and state, federal, and private sources). Under this arrangement, the final tenant (e.g.1 homebuyer or building purchaser) would ultimately pay for the new facilities through a higher initial purchase price or through a periodic assessment. Mason County's policies for concurrency management are contained in the following section. 2. GOALS AND POLICIES Mason County's Capital Facilities Element is guided by goals and policies for the preferred service philosophy of the County. Goals and policies are required as part of the Capital Facilities Element (RCW 36.70A) of the overall GMA Comprehensive Plan. DEVELOPMENT PROCESS Mason County evaluated its existing facilities, its future needs, its costs1 and the types and levels of services which it should require or provide in the county. The goals and policies listed herein are the result of this process. Policies listed under General Capital Facilities apply to all facilities addressed in the Capital Facilities Chapter. Facility-specific policies apply only to those facilities. GENERAL CAPITAL FACILITIES POLICIES Land Use Manage land use change and develop County facilities and services in a manner that directs and controls land use patterns and intensities. CF-101 Establish urban services that shall require concurrency under the GMA. CF-102 Ensure that future development bears a fair share of capital improvement costs necessitated by the development. The County shall reserve the right to collect mitigation impact fees from new development in order to achieve and maintain adopted level of service standards. CF-103 Extend facilities and services in a manner consistent with the following County-wide policies previously adopted in 2005 (see Section ll-3). CF-104 County facilities shall be provided at urban or rural levels of service, as defined in the Capital Facilities Element of the Comprehensive Plan. 4 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, i998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities CF-105 Develop capital facilities within established urban growth areas (UGAs) to conform to urban development standards.

CF-108 As the capital facilities plan is amended to reflect a changing financial situation or changing priorities, the land use chapter shall be reassessed on at least a biennial basis to assure internal consistency of the land use chapter with the capital facilities chapter and its six.-yearfinancial plan. Concurrency Establish standards for levels of service for County public facilities, and ensure that necessary facilities are available at the time new development impacts existing systems. CF-201 After adoption of this Comprehensive Plan and subsequent development regulations, level of service standards for each type of public facility shall apply to development permits issued by Mason County. CF-202 Adopt level of service standards and concurrency requirements recommended in this plan for wastewater/sanitary systems, water supply systems, transportation facilities, and storm water management facilities. CF-203 Public facilities needed to support development shall be available concurrent with the impacts of development or within a reasonable time thereafter. The County shall establish development regulations that will establish procedures and requirements to assure that the concurrency requirements are met. CF-204 New development, which has potential storm water impacts 1 shall provide evidence of adequate storm water management for the intended use of the site. This policy shall apply in all areas of the County. CF-205 Building permits for any building necessitating domestic water systems shall provide evidence of an adequate water supply for the intended use of the building. Proposed subdivisions and short plats shall not be approved unless the County makes written findings that adequate provision for potable water are available for each development site. This policy shall apply in all areas of the County. CF-206 Building permits for any building necessitating wastewater treatment shall provide evidence of an adequate sanitary sewer system for the intended use of the building. This policy shall apply in all areas of the County. 5 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 ·(updated March 2015) Capital Facilities Finance Develop a six-year finance plan for capital facilities that meets the recommendations of the comprehensive plan, achieves the County's levels of service, and is financially attainable. CF-301 Adopt a six-year capital improvement program that identifies projects, outlines a schedule, and designates realistic funding sources for all County capital facility projects. For all capital facility projects, evaluate alternatives to programs, purpose, and service as a method to reduce capital facilities and associated operating costs.

WATER AND WASTEWATER UTILITIES INTRODUCTION The County owns and operates two public water systems, Rustlewood and the Beards Cove system. These systems serve an average of 750 residential connections. The County also owns and operates three sanitary sewer collection and treatment facilities, North Bay /Case Inlet Water Reclamation Facility, Rustlewood and the Belfair Water Reclamation Facility. North Bay/ Case inlet Water Reclamation Facility provides wastewater treatment to protect Case Inlet from sewage contamination. The Rustlewood facility protects the water of Pickering Passage and the Belfair Water Reclamation Facility protects the water quality in Hood Canal. The three systems are designed to provide service to approximately 31 000 total customers. The Belfair and Case Inlet Facilities serve the present and future populations in both urban growth areas. Both the Belfair Water Reclamation project and the Case/Inlet use advanced water treatment science to produce Class A reclaimed water Future sewer extensions forthe Belfair area will occur in phases. Belfair Build out is predicted by 2025. The following "Water" and "Wastewater" sections provide project-level detail on the planned improvements necessary to meet state regulatory guidelines in the provision of water and wastewater services for these systems. Each project in each section is accompanied by a separate project sheet, which provides a description, and justification 1 along with a table depicting the estimated costs and funding sources for planning period 2015 though 2020. A summary table that provides overall costs and funding sources for each water and sewer system follows each section. Financing the planned utility improvements requires the use of grants, loans, utility fees, system development charges, developer contributions, and capital reserves. The specific combination of 9 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities funds, and the availability of grants and loans, will affect user rates for each system as well as the timing on projects. The ability to initiate specific projects will be assessed annually based on the urgency of need, reserve funds available, and commitments from funding agencies to provide grants and/or loans. The decision about whether or not to proceed with any planned project is the decision of the Mason County Board of Commissioners for consideration in the annual budgeting and rate-setting process. To the extent possible, projects will be funded through: • • • • • Rate revenues (capital reserves) Grants Low interest loans developer contributions County issued revenue bonds Project costs shown in each section range in accuracy from+ or- 40% to+ or -15%. Each project cost sheet identifies the accuracy of the estimated costs shown based on the following scale: 1 • • "Planning Level" - The least accurate of costs estimates, in the range of+ or- 40%. Cost estimates at this level are usually based on a project concept and some assessment of relative scale 1 or annual program amounts commensurate with a level of activity sufficient to accomplish the intent of the program overtime. "Design Report" - Moderate accuracy, in the range of+ or- 30%. Based on design report evaluation of options and an assessment of project elements and associated costs. "Engineer's Estimate" - Most accurate estimate, in the range of+ or-15%. These estimates are based on a project design or significant completion of design work. 10 3(27(2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities 2015-2020 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN WORKSHEET UTILITIES & WASTE MANAGEMENT Inlet Sewer System Project Name: Minor Facility and System Improvements Program Estimates: Planning Level Description: Annual improvements program for system facilities 1 buildings, and grounds. Projects may include small piping improvements, pump stations, lighting, exterior painting, and other general improvements. Justification: The treatment plant and system construction provided basic functionality, however the facilities and system need improvements from time to time to correct deficiencies and improve operational capabilities. Plant operations and system maintenance staff are not equipped to address these types of improveiTrents in addition to the plant operations. It is also anticipated that some of this work can be completed professionally and more expediently through contracts with specialty firms and contractors.

Justification: The existing plant may be reaching design capacity for treatment in 2018. This will require Mason County to revisit the original sewer facility plan and address how we will maintain sufficient capacity for the twenty-year period beyond 2018. This project outlines the need forfunding to conduct the analysis and design the next increment of capacity for the plant. For planning purposes it is assumed that as the treatment pi ant reaches its twenty year life cycle improvements not only to capacity will be needed but capital replacement will need funding as well. In the event development escalates beyond the current rate this project may need to be advanced.

The total requirement forth is system identified in the 2002 water system plan is 250,050 gallons. Technically the system is 150,000 gallons deficient on usable storage. In addition approximately $500,000 is needed to complete a service meter installation by 2017. The system has been preparing for this for some time. As a result a significant number of meter sets have been installed however state law requires that any funding application for a water system project that does not have service meters must include service meters as part of said project. Therefore Mason County is required to include service meters and the two projects have been combined as a result. Estimated Project Costs (in thousands) 2015.

The community will benefit from meters by providing leakage data and allow billing based on usage. The system improvements are needed to replace aging equipment in the well house and upgrade the control system that is well beyond the expected life cycle. This is a financially challenged community that needs grant assistance to complete this project while keeping rates affordable.

This project is designed to reduce those flows to manageable levels. The activities could include the repair and replacement of side sewer, manhole and pipeline grouting, and installation of pipe linings. Mason County needs to continue to monitor and repair observed leakage into the system and correct identified inflow conditions as they arise. Estimated Project Costs (in thousands) .

Justification: In 2012 the county completed the first phase of the Belfair sewer system. The next phase of the system must be completed by 2017 in accordance with a Growth Management Hearings Board ruling. However, given the past "Great Recession" it should be argued that the development of the next phase of the collection system should be delayed. Meanwhile, the Be/fair Sewer Advisory Committee is preparing recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration.

It is anticipated that the project and need may be eliminated. However, until Public Works has direction from the Mason County Board of County Commissioners, the project will remain in the Capital Facility Plan Documentation. Originally1 this project was developed to address the low oxygen levels in Hood Canal which are partiy attributed to the inabiiity of on site septic systems to reduce nitrogen. By conveying wastewater to a technologically advanced sewage treatment facility that can significantly reduce nitrogen, and apply the effluent upland, this project will reduce the human contribution of nutrients to the waters of Hood Canal. 3/27/2o:i5 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities 2015-2020 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN WORKSHEET UTILITIES & VV ASTE MANAGEMENT Name: Estimates: Biosolids thickening facility Engineers Description: The purchase and installation of thickening equipment required to achieve a 20% solids concentration Justification: The current method of hauling and disposing of liquid biosolids with concentrations of about 2% is not cost effective.

SOLIDWASTEUT!UTY Mason County1s solid waste utility provides transfer and disposal operations for solid waste at four transfer station locations, including household recyclable materia Is. The largest transfer facility is located outside Shelton on Eels Hill Road. Materials collected from the other smaller stations at Hoodsport, Union, and Belfair, are transported to the Shelton facility, where garbage is processed into containers that are trucked to Centralia, WA. From there, the material is long-hauled via railroad to Roosevelt Landfill in Klickitat County, located in Eastern Washington. Household hazardous wastes (HHW) are collected and disposed of by Mason County staff at the Shelton transfer facility. Residents in North Mason County can take their HHW to the l<itsap County transfer station. This arrangement is established through interlocal agreement and Mason County pays approximately $60 per customer for collection and disposal of materials from residents who take their materials to the Kitsap County facility. The Shelton transfer facility is located at the former Mason County Landfill. The current utility provides post-closure monitoring and capital construction in support of the closed landfill. The Shelton facility receives wastes collected by private and municipal haulers operating inside Mason County. The Belfair and Shelton transfer facilities have capacity due to the "Great Recession" of 2008-2009, which reduced the annual collected tonnage at the facilities. Growth in the Belfair area and elsewhere in the County will continue to impact operations at these facilities and capacity improvements may need to be addressed in the future. The County will continue to review the feasibility of "privatization "of the solid waste operations the County manages. The following pages provide details on specific projects proposed for the current capital facilities planning period. Project estimates range in accuracy from+ or- 40% to+ or-15%. Each project cost sheet identifies the accuracy of the estimated costs shown based on the following scale: • • .. "Planning Level" - The least accurate of costs estimates, in the range of+ or- 40%. Cost estimates at this level are usually based on a project concept and some assessment of relative scale, or annual program amounts commensurate with a level of activity sufficient to accomplish the intent of the program overtime. "Design Report" - Moderate accuracy, in the range of+ or- 30%. Based on design report evaluation of options and an assessment of project elements and associated costs. "Engineer's Estimate" - Most accurate estimate, in the range of+ or-15%. These estimates are based on a project design or significant completion of the design work. 21 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities 2015-2020 CAPITAL FACIUTIES PLAN WORKSHEET UTILITIES & WASTE MANAGEMENT Fund: 402-Solid Waste Project Name: Facility Improvements Belfair Estimates: Planning Description: This facility serves the north end of the County by providing residential drop off of garbage and recyclables five days a week. Growth in this part of the county had been significant prior to 2008. The system currently has capacity due to the reduction in construction .:is a result of the American "Great Recession" of 2008 and 2009. Improvements to the site will be required to meet the handling demands and ensure safety over the next few years. These could include road work, expansion of tipping areas and recycling and household hazardous waste collection facilities as well as tollhouse improvements. A wholly new facility, with scale and compaction equipment to service commercial vehicles may be necessary by the end of this planning period. Justification: If flow control should be necessary, then waste collected by the commercial hauler would need to be directed to the Belfair site. In addition, a security issue exists at the site with continued trespassing/vandalism of the property in order to gain access to scrap metals stored on the site. Improvements are needed to assure adequate handling capacity and safety of the users and employees.

It is sized properly for current demand on the system at the adjusted, post 2009 level. A new site plan needs to be developed and constructed that will likely include moving the tollhouse and scales, adding additional lanes for traffic and truck turning and storage areas 1 new or modified tipping building(s) and developing a more efficient area for diversion of recyclable materials as well as installation of scale software, lights and reader systems. Justification: Safety at this facility as well as efficient handling of waste streams is a concern. It is signlficantly undersized for the volume of users. Equipment and tipping areas are a safety hazard and ingress and egress is extremely inefficient. Modern waste handling procedures that ultimately allow more cost efficient operations are needed. The County is ending a 20-year landfill post-closure period and financial assurances set aside in reserve for any post-closure activities may come available to help deferthe costs of the project. Operational changes can also be optimized to reduce the overall cost impact.

An engineer's design review identified the que line (wait time) as the largest problem in facility efficiency. Scale software technology exists that would allow for a more efficient and accurate weighing/charging procedure at the tollhouse. A scale/software system will be installed that will provide computerized scale transactions. This includes hardware and software for automating customer transactions. Also, an automated system for commercial solid waste vehicles will allow "attendant-free transactions" greatly improving efficiency, accuracy and reducing wait times for self-haul customers. Safety will also improve as commercia I garbage trucks can be processed separately from sma lier vehicles. Justification: This facility serves County self-haul residents, businesses and commercial customers and safety on site as well as efficient handling of customer scale transactions is needed. Technology to automate and more accurately process transactions at tollhouse weigh stations has existed for over 15 years. Moving to a software-based system will also allow for accepting debit and/or credit cards at the Shelton facility. Reducing the queue line wait was the number one recommendation in an engineering site plan review document prepared several years ago. The use of the facility has greatly increased and wait times can be upward of 45 minutes during busy times.

It has outgrown its original design capacity and no ionger meets certain handling regulations. The facility needs improved spill prevention safeguards including an impervious surface for the unloading area. Lighting and ventilation needs to be upgraded for current handling requirements. Some additional changes to storage facilities and emergency containment/decontamination are also needed. Justification: Due to National and State regulation changes, the facility no longer meets all requirements for safe handling of household generated hazardous wastes and needs some retrofits to come into full compliance with regulation mandates. Because these changes are Federal and State mandated, grant funding may become available.

Other improvements will include modifications to storage and handling facilities such as grading for additional tipping areas and expanded area for source-separated recycling collection to meet the demands of the facility use. Justification: Ongoing operation of the transfer stations requires an ongoing maintenance, repair and improvement plan for existing fixed assets. This allows the County to meet facility use demands, stay current with regulations, and provide for customer and employee safety. Minor improvements are needed routinely because of the high wear and tear on these types of facilities. In addition 1 changes in handling practices for improved safety and service may require minor improvements to facilities and sites. Providing an ongoing annual maintenance and improvement program is prudent as it can prolong and ensure maximum longevity of existing assets.

Capital Facilities PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES Recreational opportunities in Mason County include parks for day-use activities and overnight tamping; fresh and salt water areas for boating and other water sportsi facilities and equipment for sports and play activities; and wilderness areas and other open spaces for hiking, hunting, ORV use, and horseback riding. Existing parks and recreation facilities in Mason County are available through a variety of public and private entities. Federal and state facilities include camping, boating, and day-use parks. The County-owned park system includes day-use and water access facilities, sports fields, and related recreational areas. Other agencies providing park and recreational resources include municipalities, port districts, and public schools. Some private recreational facilities are open to the public as well. Mason County has adopted a Parks and Recreation Plan in November of 2006 1 which was updated and adopted again in 20121 and a Mason County Regional Trails Plan in March of 2008. Both of these plans are incorporated herein by reference. COUNTY PARK FACILITIES The County currently manages 22 park properties in Mason County two of which are undeveloped, and four others have large portions that are also undeveloped. Of the developed parks, two are large baseball/softball complexes, six provide saltwater access parks, three are located on freshwater lakes, and three provide upland day use and recreation facilities (see FIGURE 5-1). In addition to the day use facilities, the County also owns and maintains one above-ground skate park. The conditions of these facilities vary by location; however, significant investment in facilities has been made in the last six years from Real Estate Excise Tax proceeds (REET 2) and grant proceeds from the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO). Future investments made from the REET 2 fund will be dependent on actual tax proceeds and additional project funding (i.e. grants). The capital plan for the next six years continues this trend of investment in park development and facility upgrades. The heavy use and demand from both county and non-County residents are particularly high during the spring, summer and fall. Park visitation continues to either remain static or increase, depending on the park location. Mason County does not charge a use fee (except at sports facilities) and this has led to the increase in park use. MCRA Park is the highest used park with an average of about 140,000 visits per year and Sandhill Park also receives significant attendance with about 90 1 000 visits per year. The boat launches at Mason Lake and Latimers Landing are very popular with the boating public and are highly used. Both Boat launches have had extensive renovation work over the past 6 years. The remaining two boat launches at Union and Shorecrest are unimproved, but are still used by the public extensively. Mason County also has a nice inventory of community parks with play equipment, picnic facilities and other amenities1 examples include Walker Park, Truman Glick Park, Union Park, Menards Landing, and Rends land Park. Mason County Recreation Area, the largest baseball/softball complex has grown in use the last several years and is now recognized regionally as a preferred site for major tournaments. In 2012 1 two new synthetic turf infields opened and this has increased the interest in using the park for tournaments. The spike in fuel prices in 2008 and 27 3/27/2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities the global recession has also led to increased park use as people are staying closer to home to recreate. Oakland Bay Historic Park and Sunset Bluff View Park were opened 2013. Both provide passive recreation, trails, water access and other amenities. There are no facilities for overnight camping throughout the Mason County Parks system. The last county-wide park plan was developed in 1991 and subsequently updated in 2012. Camping options will be examined in the long-term development plan being crafted for these and other park properties with large portions ofundeveloped land. Mason County developed a new county-wide parks plan in 2012 1 which includes analysis and recommendations to address recreation needs within the county. Camping by special use permit has been approved for Truman Glick Park and Foothills Park and Walker Park. As mentioned earlier the county parks plan was updated in 2012 and approved by the Board of County Commissioners. Residents and non-residents have consistently rated trails and water access as the highest priorities in public outreach that has been done by the County. The survey work in 2012 again revealed the publics two highest priorities are access to water and trails. An inventory of all Mason County parks including federal, state, private, and County-owned parks is listed in TABLE 5-1.

Capital Facilities (OUNTY AND ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDINGS Mason County owns several buildings, most of which are located in the City of Shelton, the county seat. These buildings are used to support general County functions such as internal management, health, public service, and general administration. Other buildings owned by the County include Memorial Hall, the two buildings on Pine Street that house the Mason County Sheriff, the Public Works Campus and the Belfair Public Works Shop. Table Vl.6-1 describes these sites. Memorial Hall and the two buildings on Pine Street are located in Shelton, a few blocks from the main campus area. The Public Works campus is located about 4 miles north of Shelton, on the northwest side of Highway 101. The Belfair Public Works Shop is situated on the north shore of Hood Canal about 3 miles from Belfair. INVENTORY Mason County's administrative offices and departments housed in the buildings are listed in TABLE Vl.6-2. Also provided is a summary of current office area allocations for the County departments and departmental functions. Most of the County's administrative offices are located in the Shelton Campus, a four-square block section of the downtown area. At this location, the County operates from 23 publicly owned buildings. These include the Courthouse, Jail, Juvenile Detention Facility, Building I, Building II, Building 111 1 Building IV, Building V, Building Vl 1 Building VII, Building VIII, and Building IX. Other county administrative offices are, the 3rd & Pine building (the Sheriff Office), and Public Works campus. FACILITY NEEDS Mason County has conducted an assessment of the condition of all county owned buildings and facilities. This document, entitled "Mason County Existing Facilities Assessment1', July 2012, is on file with the Mason County Department of Facilities and Grounds. The facilities assessment completed in 2012 only looked at existing County Buildings and recommended improvements. The assessment is more of a maintenance plan or maintenance assessment rather than a County Facilities and Building Master Plan that looks forward 6 to 12 years attempting to gauge future building n~eds and expansion needs. Additionally, Mason County completed a Special Needs Assessment and Campus Master Plan. This work was completed in 2008 prior to the great recession and prior to Mason County implementing large lay off's of staff. Prior to the onset of the recession, Mason County did have a deficit in space for employees. But with layoffs implemented from 2008 to the present, the County overall does not have near the deficits that were present and forecasted prior to the recession. Some facilities are in need of additional space, such as the courthouse and the jail, but overall the need is not as great as it was in 2008. The jail is receiving additional space with the DSU remodel that will be completed in early 2015. There is an immediate need for additional courtroom space. Mason County does need a comprehensive review of current facilities and a forecast of what additional space will be needed in the future, especially for the jail, juvenile detention, and court space. 60 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities The Facilities Assessment completed in 2012 is the first known attempt to establish a true buildings and facilities capital improvement program. Many of the buildings and facilities are more than 30 years of age or older and there is plenty of deferred maintenance. If an active program is not implemented soon, in the future Mason County could expect to experience multiple building failings at or about the same time, causing great financial hardship to the County. The assessment looks at roofs, mechanical systems, electrical systems, windows, and other components of each building, and will establish a program for building improvements in the future. At present, staff is actually attempting to consolidate as many employees and services into various buildings to try and more efficiently use the space we have. Buildings that have extra space or are vacant can be leased or possibly put up for surplus. Based on the "Space Standards Manual 11 published by the State of Washington Department of General Administration, 251 square feet are needed per employee. In addition 1 certain governmental functions have special requirements for facilities.

Capital Facilities POLICE AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE FACILITIES DESCRIPTION The Mason County Sheriff's Office provides police services including1 patrol, traffic enforcement, service of civil process, jail operation and investigative services to the citizens of Mason County. The Mason County Sheriff's Office currently has a total of 109 employees. Ofthose54 are commissioned officers, 36are jailers, and 19are civilian employees. The Mason County Sheriff's Office currently serves 60,699 citizens. This number represents a 22.9 percent increase in population since 2000. The Sheriff' Office is responsible for covering an area of . 961 square miles. The Mason County Sheriff's Office also covers over 900 miles of shorelines, 622 miles of county roads and nearly 115 miles of state highways. The Mason County Sheriff's Office has taken over primary responsibility for traffic law enforcement and collision investigations on all county roads commencing July 11 2009. Accordingly the Sheriff's Office has established the Mason County Sheriff's Office Traffic Team as of January 11 2008. The unit consists offive deputies and one Sergeant. Mason County Sheriff's Office is assisted through mutual aid by the Shelton Police Department and the Squaxin Island Police Department. This low level of law enforcement is a distinction that separates us from our Region 3 and comparative counties who all have numerous agencies to provide mutual aid. JAIL FACILITIES The present Mason County Jail opened in 1986 with a population capacity of 45 inmates. In 1989, capacity was increased to 511 and in 1991 it was increased to 58 beds with floor space for 106. In 1993 the average daily population (ADP) was 62. In 2004 the ADP was at 95 - 46% over capacity. The Direct Supervision Unit (DSU) opened on October 1, 2006, bringing the jail capacity up to 128 inmates. ADP for 2005 was 111, ADP for 2006 was 119 and ADP for 2007was113.7. On September i5, 2009 DSU was closed after the jail had to reduce staff by five (5) FTEs bringing the jail's capacity down to 108 inmates. For the first eight (8) months of 2010 the ADP has stood at 103. Reductions in staff due to mandated budgetary cuts at the Sheriff's Office prompted the closing of DSU causing the reduction in jail capacity. In 2014, the Mason County Sheriff's Office implemented a plan to reconfigure the DSU facility. The reconfigured facility will house 42 inmates. In earlier comprehensive plans several critical maintenance issues were identified at the jail as needing immediate repair or replacement. They include new locks for the cells and cellblocks, leaks in the roof and the problems with the walkway between the court house and the jail. In 2014 the jail received significant improvements including a new roof, new control system, and comprehensive update of the mechanical systems in the building. These issues have all been addressed by the Sheriff's Office, BOCC, and Facilities Department. Repair and maintenance needs of the jail are paint inside the cell blocks, booking area, the holding cells and floor. These areas have not received updated paint and the graffiti and wear do not 78 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities conform to the best standards for care and custody as well as an acceptable work environment for staff .Despite multiple attempts to seal and repair leaks in the hallway between the jail and the courthouse water and white crystals continue to accumulate in that area and a solution needs to be implemented. The commercial grade washer and dryer are also nearing the end of service life and should be scheduled for replacement in 2016. STRATEGIC PLAN The Mason County Sheriff's Office is currently pursuing the completion of the jail redesign, installation of the video arraignment system, installation of an updated inmate visitation/telephone/commissary kiosk system and acquisition of a storage unit for the safe housing of supplies and equipment. After completion of the above mentioned areas the Mason County jail will have a total inmate capacity of 144. It should be noted that inmate bed space should not be confused for total capacity. After completion of the redesign the total number of inmate beds will be 1131 an additional 12 in holding cells with another 19 using floor space for a total capacity of 144. Though the maintenance updates and redesign will create efficiencies in the use of existing staff hours and have created a safer working environment for our jail deputies we are still at a lower overall capacity than the 160 plus inmates being housed in 2009 prior to the closure of the DSU. FUNDING RCES The Mason County Sheriff's Office continues to explore alternative funding sources including Federal Homeland Security Grants, Justice Assistance Grants, and grants from other federal, state, and private sources. However, like many other funding sources the amounts of these grants are being reduced or eliminated altogether. Additionally the Mason County Sheriff's Office is committed to forming community partnerships with public and private agencies to more efficiently provide services and utilize facilities to maximum efficiency. SHERIFF'S FACILITY The Mason County Sheriff's Office is currently housed at 322 North 3rd Street in Shelton. The Office transitioned to this location from the Mason County Courthouse starting in December, 2009 and was mostly completed by February 2010. Police Operations, Records, Finance, Administration, and Evidence are currently housed at this facility. The acquisition of this facility has greatly enhanced the office's ability to perform its mission with much greater efficiency. SPACE ALLOCATION CRITERIA AND MAINTENANCE Standard space allocations methods do not apply to all areas of the Sheriff's Office because of the diverse functions found within the department such as training, locker rooms, K-9 holding 1 briefing room, interview rooms, public receptions, fingerprinting, criminal complaints, evidence processing and others. Space for many ofthe above mission essential functions is not adequate. In 2013 an electrica Ifire caused the failure of one HVAC system on the roof of the Sheriffs Office. This unit has not been replaced and the other units on the roof are of the same design and age. The workspace area that this unit serves does not have acceptable climate control for employees or the public. The carpet flooring in the Sheriff's Office is of unknown and shows extreme wear and tear. In many locations duct tape is used to repair seams and in others the carpet was cut out to accommodate construction. Replacement of the carpet must be considered for 2016 to maintain an acceptable and professional work space for employees. 79 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities One of the men's bathroom urinals was removed in early 2014 and has yet to be replaced. A plastic bag continues to serve as the covering to the exposed plumbing. To meet accreditation standards and safe workplace criteria a decontamination and eyewash facility needs to be installed or established in the Jail and the North and South Precincts. This can be completed in several ways to meet the standard and needs to be considered for the 2016 budget year in order to maintain accreditation and safety practices. NORTH MASON FACILITY The greater Belfair/Allyn area is quickly becoming a business and population hub in northeastern Mason County. This area is quickly becoming a small city requiring a higher level of law enforcement and other governmental services. When the new sewer system is completed in Belfair, the area is expected to rapidly expand much like Silverdale did in the 198os .. The North Precinct was established in late 2013 and has made a significant impact on policing operations. In 2014 fully half of the patrol division and over 20 citizen volunteers staff this precinct. The building is currently contracted through the private sector and appears to meet the needs for the next five years in terms of projected police, investigative, and administrative functions. STORAGE NEEDS The most important need of the Sheriff's Office is that ofoffsite evidence storage. Property taken in by the Sheriff's Office is held in trust by the Sheriff's Office. Therefore it is the Sheriff's responsibility to ensure its security, preservation, chain of custody, as well as its proper return 1 sale, or disposal according to law. Currently, most of the Sheriff's evidence is being held in a secured designated area at the Sheriff's located at 322 North 3rd St in Shelton. Many items continue to be held on the third floor of the Mason County Court House. Moving evidence items to the 3rd Street facility continues. All evidence items stored at the Court House were moved in 2011. The Mason County Sheriff's Office also stores vehicles held as evidence, including homicide vehicles, and large evidence items at the old Mason County Public Works facility located on the Johns Prairie Road. Additionally, bulky evidence and evidence that may be considered hazardous, is kept at this facility. Replacement of this facility is needed to ensure security, preservation, and chain of custody. The current facility does not meet industry standards for security, processing, preservation, environmental concerns and chain of custody. Through a massive evidence audit and purge in 2014 the Sheriff's Office will conform to an accreditation standard. However, the facility design and location continues to fall short of industry standards due to the remote location and ongoing security concerns. The BOCC and Facilities Department are exploring an option that would suffice as a temporary solution while a long term building design and location site can be determined to meet the expected growth over the next decades. This would be the first move of the offsite evidence site in nearly 40 years. Additionally the Mason County Sheriff's Office must have covered secure storage for its three boats1 light armored vehicle, all terrain vehicle, skid car and trailer, search and rescue vehicles, along with spare and mothballed patrol vehicles. Additional secure storage for other training equipment, tactical equipment, search and rescue equipment, and traffic radar trailers. The storage facility needs to be in a secure location that built to specifications that will not cause operational degradation. The current Johns Prairie location is regarded only as a temporary facility, as it is not equipped with running water. Permanent facilities had been planned for equipment storage and large evidence at the newly built public works facility however that plan was scrapped prior to 80 3/27/2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, l998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities construction to bring the project in under the original budget allocation. Multiple BOCC briefings and discussions have taken place and continue to be pursued. The need is essential as the equipment stored is expensive and requires storage that allows for emergency response and reliability that the current facilities do not accommodate. FIREARMS ING The Mason County Sheriff's Office currently has no weapons training facility. The Mason County Sheriff's Office is currently dependant on the good will of the Department of Corrections which allows us to conduct quarterly training at their facility located adjacent to the Washington Corrections Center. Future budget issues may create a situation where the Sheriff can no longer use the WCC facility or to have to pay high rental fees for the privilege ofusing the WCC facility. A shooting park or similar facility has been discussed, but no action has been taken. Having a facility the Sheriff's Office can utilize for firearms training is essential and planning should begin this year. RTS The Mason County District courts handled 10,238 cases in 2013 1 mostly infractions and misdemeanors. Mason County Superior Court handled 2 689 cases in 2013, with civil cases being the most common, followed by criminal actions, domestic cases, juvenile offender cases, and probate/guardianship cases, in that order. Additional information regarding the courts and annual caseloads can be obtained at www.courts.wa.gov. 1 FACILITY NEEDS The two most recent efforts to analyze county facility needs included the two following documents, which have been referenced previously in this section: 1) Space Needs Assessment and Campus Master Plan for Mason County- completed in November of 2008. 2) Mason County Existing Facilities Assessment - completed in 2012. As has been stated earlier in the text, the 2008 report was completed prior to the great recession and prior to large layoffs that were implemented by Mason County. Some of the data is likely still valid but an update to County Facilities needs would be recommended, especially a report that identified new building needs or building expansion needs. The 2008 Facilities Master Plan did identify and recommend potential improvements that would add parking capacity, expand building #1, build a new juvenile center, build a new justice center and enlarged the main County campus as an example. Options and phases were included. Revisiting the plan to determine if the findings are still valid would be recommended. The 2012 facilities assessment looks only at current building conditions and makes recommendations for renovations of existing infrastructure that is likely to fail in the future. The assessment serves more to recommend needed maintenance and upgrades as opposed to future building needs. 3J27J2o:i.5 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities 8. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT Storm and surface water management is an important government role that serves to protect and improve water quality and habitat, and reduce flooding. Mason County has taken several steps to implement a comprehensive, county-wide management approach including: .. " .. " .. Adopting a county-wide Stormwater Management Plan in June 2008; Adopting local stormwater management standards and by reference the 2005 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington. These standards are applied county-wide as of June 2012; Adopting special Low Impact Development (LID) standards within the Belfair and Allyn UGAs in June 2008 and encouraging where practical, county-wide; Inventorying, assessing and maintaining stormwatersystems within county right-of-way; Planning, designing and constructing stormwater retrofit projects; Adopting a Comprehensive Flood Management Plan; Participating in 1 or leading fish passage improvement projects; and Participating in, or leading regional planning strategies . The County formed a Stormwater Task Force (SWTF) in late 2009 to make recommendations to the County Commissioners on implementing the adopted stormwater management plan and related water quality initiatives. The SWTF met regularly between April 2010 and June 2012. Final Task Force recommendations to implement a "Clean Water Program" were presented to the County Commissioners in August 2012 along with a recommendation to establish a stormwater utility rate to fund the program. The Board too no action to establish a new revenue source to fund the "Clean Water program". SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The stormwater management system within Mason County can generally be described as "rural" or "natural" even within designated urban growth areas (UGAs). Conveyances generally consist of ditches, swales and culverts, often located in highly permeable areas. A very small percentage of the overall system can be described as a typical municipal separate storm sewer (MS4) consisting of curb, gutter, catch basin, and piped conveyance. This type of system can be found, however, within sections of the Hoods port Rural Activity Center (RAC) and Belfair, Allyn and Shelton UGAs. Mason County is responsible for managing stormwater systems within County road rights-of-way and those associated with County buildings such as the Public Works site. Low Impact Development (LID) features such as porous concrete, pervious asphalt, and rain gardens used to manage stormwater can be found at this location. The stormwater systems owned and managed by the County are inventoried, inspected and represented on a GIS layer. The City of Shelton is responsible for the stormwater systems within City limits and the Washington State Department of Transportation is responsible for the State highway stormwater system. Private drainage systems exist throughout the County as well. These are owned and maintained by private property owners. A small percentage of the private stormwater facilities are inventoried and included in the GIS layer. Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities Mason County is in the initial stages of stormwater capital facility planning. Identification of storn1water capital facility needs and projects comes from a variety of sources, including the adopted County-wide Stormwater Management Plan, water quality monitoring, habitat assessments and other Lead Entity activities, and Water Quality Improvement Reports. Mason County participated in a Hood Canal regional effort to select, rank, and prioritize sites for future stormwater retrofit projects. A prioritized list and preliminary designs for top projects was completed in 2014, including two Mason County sites. Project emphasis is on retrofits (those that address "legacy" problems) and can generally be grouped into the following three categories: Water Quaiity These projects are designed to improve water quality problems identified through monitoringi downgraded or threatened shellfish harvest areas, 303(d) listings, or Water Quality Improvement Reports. Projects may consist of wet ponds, sand filters 1 constructed wetlands, vaults, or other BMPs. Flooding/Erosion These projects will reduce the frequency and/or severity of flood and erosion damage to public and private property. Projects may include additional storage facilities 1 new or enlarged conveyances 1 channel stabilization, stream restoration, or reducing impervious surfaces. Aquatic Habitat Projects in this category are designed to maintain or enhance aquatic habitat, with an emphasis on salmon recovery and shellfish. These projects may include habitat surveys, culvert replacements, installation of in-stream structures, or removal of dikes. All three categories of projects will typically require funding for planning, design, construction and land acquisition. It should also be noted that many projects will serve multiple purposes: for example, a project that includes storage for flood control will likely improve water quality through additional detention and settling of pollutant-carrying sediments. LEVEL OF SERVICE STANDARDS New Development As of June 2012, new development and redevelopment throughout Mason County must meet the minimum requirements of the 2005 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington. In addition to these minimum requirements, Mason County Code 14.48 spells out requirements for financial liability and 17.80 requires Low Impact Development (LID) techniques within the Belfair and Allyn UGAs. Conveyance Mason County Code 14.48 is silent to conveyance standards. However1 Mason County Code 16.48 states that all construction shall conform to the Washington State Department of Transportation's Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, i998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities Standard Specifications for Roads, Bridges and Municipal Construction. Conveyances are typically designed to meet the 25-year storm event. Retrofits Most capital facility projects are considered "retrofits" meaning the project is undertaken to correct or improve conditions associated with past development. Retrofits are designed using best professional judgment to provide reasonable improvements in stormwater management, recognizing that site constraints frequently make strict application of Best Management Practices (BMPs) challenging. FUNDING Mason County has utilized a variety of revenue sources to fund stormwater management activities. The majority of past funding has been from grants, but in recent years the Road Fund and Real Estate Excise Tax (REET 2) have provided a base level of "deveiopmene funding and grant match until such time that a stable dedicated source is established. The Capital Facilities Plan Worksheet makes conservative revenue assumptions including: " El • El No Road Fund revenue No REET2 revenue Minimal grant revenue to fund Hood Canal priority retrofit projects unless grants are secured No stormwater utility rate revenue A brief description of each revenue source is presented below. Road Fund The Road Fund provided $251 000 start-up revenue for stormwater program development and implementation beginning in 2010. This revenue source is used to leverage grant funding as a local revenue source is required for grant match (typically 25%). Real Estate Excise Tax (REET2) REET2 has been a revenue source used to fund capital construction and serve as grant match. REET2 funds in the amount of $821 500 were allocated in years 2009 through 2012 1 and in the amount of $751 000 in 2013. These revenues combined with grant funds were used to design and construct projects in Belfair1 Allyn and Hoodsport to reduce contaminants and improve water quality. The revenue table assumes no REET2 funding through 2020. Grants Mason County has received approximately $1.1 million in stormwater management grants over the past seven years. Future grant availability is expected to diminish due to greater demand and competition, directing funds to jurisdictions under Municipal NPDES permit requirements (Mason County is not a permittee), and an overall reduction in available funds. The revenue table reflects that Mason County executed a grant with the Department of Ecology who will continue to perform work in years 2015 and 2016. Small grants are assumed for the years following. Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2.oi5) Capital Facilities Mason County created a Stormwater Utility in June 2008 but did not establish a rate to fund stormwater management activities at that time. A Stormwater Task Force (SWTF) met regularly from April 2010 through June 2012 to develop program and funding recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners. The SWTF recommended a stormwater utility rate be established to provide dedicated, predictable funding to implement an annual program of approximately $1.43 million. A rate has yet to be established. 85 3{27{2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2oi5) Capital Facilities 2015-2020 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN WORKSHEET PUBUCWORKS Fund Storm Name: Estimates: Program Implementation and Retrofits Development Level Description: This project worksheet includes costs associated with program implementation and the design/construction of stormwater retrofit projects.

Stormwater retrofit projects will be rated and prioritized in the nearfuture and individually identified in 6-year and 20-year CFPs. Justifications: Clean water is vital to the health, economy and cultural heritage of Mason County. Mason County government piays an important role in salmon recovery, maintaining and improving shellfish harvest areas, flood control, and improving water quality as well as the overall recovery of Puget Sound. Implementing the stormwater management program and constructing stormwater retrofits is an important community investment yielding returns in the form of maintaining property values, generating fish/shellfish revenues and tourism and reducing health risks and costs.

As required under the Growth Management Act (G MA) a six-year finance plan has been prepared for the years 2015 to at least the year 2020 for those facilities currently, or to be, owned and operated by the County. The following facilities are included in the financial planning: '" Water and Wastewater Systems >- Belfair Sewer 20 Year Finance and Rate Forecast >- Cost Calculations for Build Out >- Real Estate Excise Tax1(REET1), REET 21 and .09 Sales Tax Revenues. (Appendix A) " Solid Waste Management Facilities ,. County Administrative and Law Enforcement Buildings " Stormwater Facilities " Public Works Facilities '" Parks and Recreation Only County owned and operated facilities, except for the community-based wastewater systems for rural activity centers, are included in the finance analysis. Several alternatives have been suggested to deal with the problem of providing water and wastewater service in areas outside the existing utility service area in which growth is forecast. The service area for the solid waste utility is county-wide. The finance plan identifies reasonably reliable funding sources, and forecasts revenue and expenses to at least the year 2020. Funding varies depending on the facility. The different financing methods, public or private, could have significant implications on the cost of utility service. Potential funding sources that could be used to fund unanticipated needs and shortfalls are also discussed. FINANCIAL IMPACT OVERVIEW The financial impact for capital facility improvements have been analyzed forthe six year planning period. Information on transportation can be found in the Transportation Chapter. A summary of the six year improvement costs, revenues and financing is listed in Table 10-1. The Table displays the cost by capital facility category. The total of improvement costs and expenditures is Shown in Table 10-1. 93 3/27/2015 Mason County Comprehensive Plan August, 1998 - (updated March 2015) Capital Facilities TABLE 10-1 CAPITAL FACILITY IMPROVEMENT & FINANCE COSTS 201 - 2020* Water & Wastewater Systems Solid Waste Management County Administration Stormwater Public Works (Road Funds) Parks & Recreation 20640 20640 20640 1458 1458 1458 7170 7170 7170 1164 1164 1164 2180 2180 2180 11208 11208 43,820 431820 11208 Total *in thousands AND SYSTEMS The County owns and operates water systems that serve residents in Beard's Cove and the Rustlewood subdivisions. The County also operates water treatment facilities for Rustlewood and Beard's Cove. There is no expected expansion in any of the service utility areas with the exception of the Belfair sewer. A plan has been developed for sewer expansion to serve the entire Belfair Urban Growth Area by 2025 and an accompanying financial plan and rate structure is being developed to accommodate this growth. Facility worksheets provided in Section 4 summarize the planned water supply and sewer system capital improvements over the next six years. SOLID WASTE Facility Worksheets provided in Section 4 present revenue sources and expenditure levels for Mason County solid waste services from 2015-2020.
