MESSAGE FROM STATE OFFICES
WASHINGTON STATE CONVENTION AND TRADE CENTER
EXPANSION DEVELOPMENT STUDY
January 5, 1995
Governor Mike Lowry
Mayor Norm Rice
Members of the Senate Ways and Means Committee
Members of the House Capital Budget Committee
RE: TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATION FOR EXPANSION OF THE CONVENTION CENTER
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Section 148, Chapter 6, Laws of Washington, 1994 1st Special Session, the Legislature directed that the Washington State Convention and Trade Center (WSCTC) and the City of Seattle, prepare a development plan for expansion of the State Convention Center. To work with the City and the WSCTC, the Legislature authorized the formation of a Convention Center and City Facilities Task Force. The Task Force was also directed to submit recommendations concerning proposed expansion of the fiscal committees of the Legislature. We are pleased to submit to you those recommendations which are contained in the attached report.
On January 5, 1995, by a vote of 7-1, the Task Force voted to recommend that the Legislature approve capital expenditures in the 1995-97 biennial capital budget which would allow for expansion of the Convention Center. The complete text of the recommendations are attached for your review. A minority recommendation to the Task Force Report is also attached.
It has been a privilege to serve the Legislature through our participation on the Task Force. As the legislative process runs its course, we are available to discuss the proposed expansion as the Legislature may deem appropriate.
Respectfully Submitted, TASK FORCE MEMBERS
Senator Eugene Prince, Co-Chair Representative Val Ogden, Co-Chair
Senator Nita Rinehart Representative Ida Ballasiotes
Jan Drago, City Councilmember Rick Bender, Washington State Labor Council
Dorothy Bullitt, Dorothy Bullitt Mgt. Services Joan Enticknap, Seafirst Bank

MINORITY RECOMMENDATION TO THE TASK FORCE
TO: Governor Mike Lowry
Members of the Washington State Senate
Members of the Washington State House of Representatives
Members of the Washington State Convention and Trade Center Expansion Task Force
FROM: David Moseley, Task Force Member
Minority Recommendation to the Task Force Report
DATE: January 4, 1995
It has been an honor and a privilege to serve on the Washington State Convention and Trade Center Expansion Task Force. I appreciate the opportunity of serving with each of the Task Force members.
I file this memorandum as a minority recommendation to the report which will be presented by the Task Force to the Governor and the Washington State Legislature. From the discussion and preliminary vote taken at the Task Force meeting held on November 28, 1994, it is clear that the Task Force Report will recommend that the Legislature approve capital expenditures in the 1995/96 capital budget to expand the Convention Center either to the North across Pine Street or to the East toward Boren Avenue. As I indicated at that meeting, I do not concur with this recommendation and wish to state, for the record, the reasons for my position.
First, I wish to make very clear that I believe the Washington State Convention and Trade Center is an excellent facility and is an asset to our state. I believe strongly in the potential for tourism as a growth industry in Washington State and believe the Convention Center is an important part of an economic development strategy to expand tourism. I also believe the Convention Center facility will, in all likelihood, need to be expanded at some time in the future to continue to function as a viable convention facility.
However, I do not believe the need to expand the Convention Center is either immediate or urgent. I also do not believe the immediate expansion of the Convention Center is as high a priority as other critical public improvement investments. My opposition to expanding the Convention Center at this time is based on when is the best time to proceed with expansion, not whether the expansion will be needed or can be justified in the future.
Therefore, I am opposed to expanding the Convention Center at this time for the following reasons:
1. Higher Priority Public Investment Projects - As we are all aware, expansion of the Convention Center is but one of numerous publicly financed capital projects currently being considered by the state and by local governments in the Puget Sound region. A short list of those potential projects, in addition to the Convention Center, include a regional rail system, improvements to the state's highway system, a new stadium, a new library, jails and correctional facilities, and schools. Several of these projects have been under serious consideration and review for many years. In addition, some of the projects are critical in nature and must, in my opinion, be accomplished in the very near future to assure the long-term health of the state's economy. I would include the regional transportation system and schools in that group, both of which will, in all likelihood, require state financial participation.
In my opinion, expansion of the Convention Center does not rise to the level of immediate importance as the projects listed above. This is particularly true given the consultants report that the current facility is adequate for the next five to ten years. Recent levy and bond election failures indicates the public's lack of enthusiasm for additional tax-supported public projects. I am very concerned with jeopardizing other more critical projects with one that could wait.
2. Optimistic Financial Assumptions - The final financial information provided to the Task Force at the November 28th meeting appears to contain optimistic financial assumptions. For example, the "Summary of Project Costs and Funding" assumes a $7.5 million contribution from King County for an East expansion. Since there has been no representation by the county on the Task Force, the county has several other high priority capital projects, and the Task Force has received no indication of county willingness to provide this level of financial participation, this assumption seems optimistic to me. In addition, the cost assumptions have varied significantly from the initial projections. The Task Force has not had an opportunity to review the latest cost assumption of $129 million for both the north and east expansion. I believe the financial package should be more definitive before the state is asked to authorize a $100 million bond issue.
For primarily these reasons, I recommend delaying the expansion of the Convention Center. This delay would allow the time for final decisions on other critical public projects and development of a more definitive financial package. During the intervening period, the following activities should occur:
1. The WSCTC Board should determine the best expansion site;
2. Both the revenue and expenditure financial package should be more definitive based on the site selected; and
3. The level and commitment of participation by the county and private developers should be clarified.
I recommend this issue to be "revisited" prior to the 1997 legislative session with a revised report presented to that Legislature.
The Report from the Washington State Convention and Trade Center Expansion Development Study Task Force and the Minority Recommendation to the Task Force Report are on file in the Office of the Secretary of the Senate.
