AN ACT Relating to state general obligation bonds and related accounts; amending 2011 1st sp.s. c 49 ss 1027, 2017, 3082, 5013, 5003, 5012, 5017, 5075, 5062 (uncodified); adding a new chapter to Title 43 RCW; creating new sections; making appropriations; and declaring an emergency.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
NEW SECTION. Sec. 101 This act shall be known as the 2012 jobs
now act.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 201 For the purpose of providing funds to
finance the projects described and authorized by the legislature in the
capital and operating appropriations acts for the 2011-2013 fiscal
biennium, and all costs incidental thereto, the state finance committee
is authorized to issue general obligation bonds of the state of
Washington in the sum of five hundred five million four hundred sixty-six thousand dollars, or as much thereof as may be required, to finance
these projects and all costs incidental thereto. Bonds authorized in
this section may be sold at such price as the state finance committee
shall determine. No bonds authorized in this section may be offered
for sale without prior legislative appropriation of the net proceeds of
the sale of the bonds.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 202 (1) The proceeds from the sale of the
bonds authorized in section 201 of this act shall be deposited in the
state building construction account created by RCW 43.83.020. The
proceeds shall be transferred as follows:
(a) Four hundred eighty million forty-five thousand dollars to
remain in the state building construction account created by RCW
43.83.020;
(b) Twenty million four hundred sixteen thousand dollars to the
state taxable building construction account. All receipts from taxable
bond issues are to be deposited into the account. If the state finance
committee deems it necessary or advantageous to issue more than the
amount specified in this subsection (b) as taxable bonds in order to
comply with federal internal revenue service rules and regulations
pertaining to the use of nontaxable bond proceeds or in order to reduce
the total financing costs for bonds issued, the proceeds of such
additional taxable bonds shall be transferred to the state taxable
building construction account in lieu of any transfer otherwise
provided by this section. If the state finance committee determines
that a portion of the amount specified in this subsection (b) as
taxable bonds may be issued as nontaxable bonds in compliance with
federal internal revenue service rules and regulations pertaining to
the use of nontaxable bond proceeds, then such bond proceeds shall be
transferred to the state building construction account in lieu of the
transfer to the state taxable building construction account otherwise
provided by this subsection (b). The state treasurer shall submit
written notice to the director of financial management if it is
determined that any such additional transfer to the state taxable
building construction account is necessary or that a transfer from the
state taxable building construction account to the state building
construction account may be made. Moneys in the account may be spent
only after appropriation.
(2) These proceeds shall be used exclusively for the purposes
specified in this section and for the payment of expenses incurred in
the issuance and sale of the bonds issued for the purposes of this
section, and shall be administered by the office of financial
management subject to legislative appropriation.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 203 (1) The debt-limit general fund bond
retirement account shall be used for the payment of the principal of
and interest on the bonds authorized in section 202(1) of this act.
(2) The state finance committee shall, on or before June 30th of
each year, certify to the state treasurer the amount needed in the
ensuing twelve months to meet the bond retirement and interest
requirements on the bonds authorized in section 202(1) of this act.
(3) On each date on which any interest or principal and interest
payment is due on bonds issued for the purposes of section 202(1) of
this act, the state treasurer shall withdraw from any general state
revenues received in the state treasury and deposit in the debt-limit
general fund bond retirement account an amount equal to the amount
certified by the state finance committee to be due on the payment date.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 204 (1) Bonds issued under sections 201
through 203 of this act shall state that they are a general obligation
of the state of Washington, shall pledge the full faith and credit of
the state to the payment of the principal thereof and the interest
thereon, and shall contain an unconditional promise to pay the
principal and interest as the same shall become due.
(2) The owner and holder of each of the bonds or the trustee for
the owner and holder of any of the bonds may by mandamus or other
appropriate proceeding require the transfer and payment of funds as
directed in this section.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 205 The legislature may provide additional
means for raising moneys for the payment of the principal of and
interest on the bonds authorized in section 201 of this act, and
sections 202 and 203 of this act shall not be deemed to provide an
exclusive method for the payment.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 301 FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Energy Efficiency Grants for Local Governments (91000241)
The appropriation in this section is subject to the following
conditions and limitations:
(1) The appropriation in this section is provided solely for grants
to local agencies for operational cost savings improvements to local
agency facilities and related projects that result in energy and
operational cost savings. Related projects are those projects that
must be completed in order for the energy efficiency improvements to be
effective. Grants may also be used for loan interest payments over the
term of a loan.
(2) The community services and housing division within the
department of commerce, in consultation with the department of
enterprise services, and the Washington State University energy program
shall establish a competitive process to solicit and evaluate
applications from local agencies. Final grant awards shall be
determined by the department of commerce.
(3) For the purposes of this section:
(a) "Cost-effectiveness" means that the present value to the local
agency of the energy reasonably expected to be saved or produced by a
facility, activity, measure, or piece of equipment over its useful
life, including any compensation received from a utility or the
Bonneville power administration, is greater than the net present value
of the costs of implementing, maintaining, and operating such facility,
activity, measure, or piece of equipment over its useful life, when
discounted at the cost of public borrowing.
(b) "Energy equipment" means energy management systems and any
equipment, materials, or supplies that are expected, upon installation,
to reduce the energy use or energy cost of an existing building or
facility, and the services associated with the equipment, materials, or
supplies, including, but not limited to, design, engineering,
financing, installation, project management, guarantees, operations,
and maintenance. Reduction in energy use or energy cost may also
include reductions in the use or cost of water, wastewater, or solid
waste.
(c) "Energy cost savings" means savings realized in expenses for
energy use and expenses associated with water, wastewater, or solid
waste systems.
(d) "Energy savings performance contracting" means the process
authorized by chapter 39.35C RCW by which a company contracts with a
local agency to conduct energy audits and guarantee energy savings from
energy efficiency.
(e) "Operational cost savings" means savings realized from parts,
service fees, capital renewal costs, and other measurable annual
expenses to maintain and repair systems. This definition does not mean
labor savings related to existing facility staff.
(f) "Public facilities" means buildings, building components, and
major equipment or systems owned by local agencies.
(g) "Local agency" means any city and any town, county, special
district, municipal corporation, agency, port district or authority, or
political subdivision of any type, or any other entity or authority of
local government in corporate form or otherwise.
(4) Grants must be awarded in competitive rounds, based on demand
and capacity, with at least ten percent of each competitive grant round
awarded to small cities or towns with a population of fewer than five
thousand residents.
(5) In order to be eligible for energy efficiency grants under this
section, applicants must complete an investment grade audit, or an
equivalent, prior to submitting an application for funding.
(6) Within each competitive round, projects must be weighted and
prioritized based on the following criteria and in the following order:
(a) Leverage ratio: In each round, the higher the leverage ratio
of nonstate funding sources to state grant, the higher the project
ranking.
(b) Energy savings: In each round, the higher the energy savings,
the higher the project ranking. Applicants must submit documentation
that demonstrates energy and operational cost savings resulting from
the installation of the energy equipment and improvements. The energy
savings analysis shall be performed by a licensed engineer, and the
documentation must include but is not limited to the following:
(i) A description of the energy equipment and improvements; and
(ii) A description of the energy and operational cost savings.
(c) Expediency of expenditure: Project readiness to spend funds
must be prioritized so that the legislative intent to expend funds
quickly is met.
(7) Projects that do not use energy savings performance contracting
must: (a) Verify energy and operational cost savings for ten years or
until the energy and operational costs savings pay for the project,
whichever is shorter; (b) follow the department of enterprise services
energy savings performance contracting project guidelines; and (c)
employ a licensed engineer for the energy audit and construction. The
department of commerce may require third-party verification of savings
if a project is not implemented by an energy savings performance
contractor selected by the department of enterprise services through
the request of qualifications process. Third-party verification must
be conducted either by an energy savings performance contractor
selected by the department of enterprise services through a request for
qualifications, a licensed engineer that is a certified energy manager,
or a project resource conservation manager.
(8) To intensify competition, the department of commerce may only
award funds to the top eighty-five percent of projects applying in a
round until the department of commerce determines a final round is
appropriate. Projects that do not receive a grant award in one round
may reapply in subsequent rounds.
(9) Grant amounts awarded to each project must allow for the
maximum number of projects funded with the greatest energy and cost
benefit.
(10) The department of commerce may charge projects administrative
fees and may pay the department of enterprise services, and the
Washington State University energy program administration fees in an
amount determined through a memorandum of understanding.
(11) The department of commerce and the department of enterprise
services must submit a joint report to the appropriate committees of
the legislature and the office of financial management on the timing
and use of the grant funds, program administrative function, compliance
with apprenticeship utilization requirements in RCW 39.04.320,
compliance with prevailing wage requirements, and administration fees
by the end of each fiscal year, until the funds are fully expended and
all savings verification requirements are fulfilled.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 701 (1) Allotments for appropriations in this
act shall be provided in accordance with expedited capital project
review requirements adopted by the office of financial management.
(2) Each project is defined as proposed in the legislative budget
notes or in the governor's budget document.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 702 (1) To ensure minor works appropriations
are carried out in accordance with legislative intent, funds
appropriated in this act shall not be allotted until project lists are
on file at the office of financial management, the house of
representatives capital budget committee, and the senate ways and means
committee. All projects must meet the criteria included in subsection
(2)(a) of this section. Revisions to the lists must be filed with the
office of financial management, the house of representatives capital
budget committee, and the senate ways and means committee and include
an explanation of variances from the prior lists before funds may be
expended on the revisions.
(2)(a) Minor works projects are single line appropriations that
include multiple projects of a similar nature and that are valued
between $25,000 and $1,000,000 each, with the exceptions of: (i)
Higher education minor works projects that may be valued up to
$2,000,000; and (ii) department of fish and wildlife minor works
projects funded in this act that may be valued up to $3,200,000. These
projects can generally be completed within two years of the
appropriation with the funding provided. Except for department of fish
and wildlife minor works projects funded in this act, agencies are
prohibited from including projects on their minor works lists that are
a phase of a larger project, and that if combined over a continuous
period of time, would exceed $1,000,000, or $2,000,000 for higher
education minor works projects. Improvements for accessibility in
compliance with the Americans with disabilities act may be included in
any of the above minor works categories.
(b) Minor works appropriations shall not be used for, among other
things: Studies, except for technical or engineering reviews or
designs that lead directly to and support a project on the same minor
works list; planning; design outside the scope of work on a minor works
list; moveable, temporary, and traditionally funded operating equipment
not in compliance with the equipment criteria established by the office
of financial management; software not dedicated to control of a
specialized system; moving expenses; land or facility acquisition; or
to supplement funding for projects with funding shortfalls unless
expressly authorized elsewhere in this act. The office of financial
management may make an exception to the limitations described in this
subsection (2)(b) for exigent circumstances after notifying the
legislative fiscal committees and waiting ten days for comments by the
legislature regarding the proposed exception.
(c) Minor works preservation projects may include program
improvements of no more than twenty-five percent of the individual
minor works preservation project cost.
(3) It is generally not the intent of the legislature to make
future appropriations for capital expenditures or for maintenance and
operating expenses for an acquisition project or a significant
expansion project that is initiated through the minor works process and
therefore does not receive a policy and fiscal analysis by the
legislature. Minor works projects are intended to be one-time
expenditures that do not require future state resources to complete.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 703 (1) The office of financial management may
authorize a transfer of appropriation authority provided for a capital
project that is in excess of the amount required for the completion of
such project to another capital project for which the appropriation is
insufficient. No such transfer may be used to expand the capacity of
any facility beyond that intended in making the appropriation. Such
transfers may be effected only between capital appropriations to a
specific department, commission, agency, or institution of higher
education and only between capital projects that are funded from the
same fund or account. No transfers may occur between projects to local
government agencies except where the grants are provided within a
single omnibus appropriation and where such transfers are specifically
authorized by the implementing statutes that govern the grants.
(2) The office of financial management may find that an amount is
in excess of the amount required for the completion of a project only
if: (a) The project as defined in the notes to the budget document is
substantially complete and there are funds remaining; or (b) bids have
been let on a project and it appears to a substantial certainty that
the project as defined in the notes to the budget document can be
completed within the biennium for less than the amount appropriated in
this act.
(3) For the purposes of this section, the intent is that each
project be defined as proposed to the legislature in the governor's
budget document, unless it clearly appears from the legislative history
that the legislature intended to define the scope of a project in a
different way.
(4) The office of financial management shall report any transfer
effected under this section to the house of representatives capital
budget committee, the senate ways and means committee, and the
legislative evaluation and accountability program committee, at least
thirty days before the date the transfer is effected. The office of
financial management shall report all emergency or smaller transfers
within thirty days from the date of transfer. The governor's capital
budget request following any transfer shall reflect that transfer in
the affected agency.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 704 (1) It is expected that projects be ready
to proceed in a timely manner depending on the type or phase of the
project or program that is the subject of the appropriation in this
act. Except for major projects that customarily may take more than two
biennia to complete from predesign to the end of construction, or large
infrastructure grant or loan programs supporting projects that often
take more than two biennia to complete, the legislature generally does
not intend to reappropriate funds more than once, particularly for
smaller grant programs, local/community projects, and minor works.
(2) Agencies shall expedite the expenditure of reappropriations and
appropriations in this act in order to: (a) Rehabilitate
infrastructure resources; (b) accelerate environmental rehabilitation
and restoration projects for the improvement of the state's natural
environment; (c) reduce additional costs associated with acquisition
and construction inflationary pressures; and (d) provide additional
employment opportunities associated with capital expenditures.
(3) To the extent feasible, agencies are directed to accelerate
expenditure rates at their current level of permanent employees and
shall use contracted design and construction services wherever
necessary to meet the goals of this section.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 705 FOR THE ARTS COMMISSION--ART WORK
ALLOWANCE POOLING
(1) One-half of one percent of moneys appropriated in this act for
original construction of school plant facilities may be expended for
the purposes of RCW 28A.335.210. The Washington state arts commission
may combine the proceeds from individual projects in order to fund
larger works of art or mobile art displays in consultation with the
superintendent of public instruction and representatives of school
district boards.
(2) One-half of one percent of moneys appropriated in this act for
original construction or any major renovation or remodel work exceeding
two hundred thousand dollars by colleges or universities may be
expended for the purposes of RCW 28B.10.027. The Washington state arts
commission may combine the proceeds from individual projects in order
to fund larger works of art or mobile art displays in consultation with
the board of regents or trustees.
(3) At least eighty-five percent of the moneys spent by the
Washington state arts commission during the 2011-2013 biennium for the
purposes of RCW 28A.335.210, 28B.10.027, and 43.17.200 must be expended
solely for direct acquisition of works of art. The commission may use
up to $100,000 of this amount to conserve or maintain existing pieces
in the state art collection pursuant to chapter 36, Laws of 2005.
