Background and Analysis:
Olympia has a diverse facility portfolio which houses the City's administration, public safety, recreation, maintenance and operations, and emergency services. The City began to formally document facility conditions for City owned buildings in 2008. The Facility Condition Assessment (FCA) was updated in 2013 and 2019.
