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.
