Background and Analysis:

The Capital Area Regional Public Facilities District (CARPFD) Board is an interjurisdictional body created by the cities of Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater and Thurston County.

 

The purpose of this district is to receive Public Facilities District revenues from the State and then enter into contracts with local entities for regional projects, based on the Interlocal Agreements.  Currently the CARPFD has contracts with the City of Lacey for the Regional Athletic Complex (RAC) and the City of Olympia for the Hands on Children’s Museum.

 

The CARPFD is managed by a seven-member Board of Directors.  Three members of the Board are appointed jointly by the four local jurisdictions.  The remaining four members are appointed individually by each of the jurisdictions to four-year terms.  A roster of current boardmembers is attached.

 

The Regional Representative position is one of the three positions appointed jointly by the jurisdictions.  Chris Leicht has expressed an interest to continue in his capacity as a Regional Representative on this Board.  A brief bio for Mr. Leicht is attached.

 

Staff recommends the re-appointment of Chris Leicht to the CARPFD Board.
