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 PFD revenues from the Sate 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 New 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.
The Regional Representative position is one of the three positions appointed jointly by the jurisdictions. Mark Foutch has expressed an interest to continue in his capacity as a Regional Representative on this Board.
The annual meeting of the CARPFD is scheduled to take place in April.
