INVESTING IN WASHINGTON’S ECONOMIC FUTURE

I am pleased to introduce the 2020 Legislative Report for the Washington State Community Economic Revitalization
Board (CERB). This report highlights activities and outcomes of the 2019-21 Biennium.
Since July 2015, CERB has continued to help grow Washington's economy, even as the state is headed into a recession.
In this time, CERB has invested $45.3 million in 93 communities throughout the state. Our funded projects result in new
living-wage jobs and real improvements to the social needs faced by our rural communities.
January 2015-September 2020
136 Total Projects
Project Types
• 106 planning
• 30 Construction
Project Geography
• 106 Rural projects (8 Tribal Projects)
• 30 Urban Projects (7 Tribal Projects)
From the construction of the public facilities, CERB expects the projects selected since 2015, will result in
approximately:
• 3,516 permanent, private jobs created
• 493 construction jobs created
• $74.2 million in matching funds
• $299.2 million in private investment
• $29.3 million in new tax revenue generated
With the stay-at-home order due the pandemic, CERB has had to shift how we do project development and Board
meetings. The Board and staff meet with communities via Zoom meetings instead of in-person. CERB hasn't seen a
decline in the need for economic development or broadband infrastructure investments, in fact, we have seen an
increase.
CERB's 2021 Legislative priorities are based on CERB's project pipeline and the emerging need moving towards the
State's economic recovery:
• Up to $100 million for all 4 of CERB’s Administrative Programs
• CERB's Rural Broadband program codified into RCW 43.160
For more information about CERB's Rural Broadband Program, please see the 2020 Rural Broadband Legislative Report.
CERB members are committed Washington citizens and professionals with a passion for economic development. The
investments that CERB has made, and the return on these investments, are a testament to this dedication. On behalf of
CERB, I thank you for your continued support of this essential resource for growing Washington's economy.

Community Economic Revitalization Board Chair
Introduction to CERB
COMMUNITY ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION BOARD
The Community Economic Revitalization Board (CERB) is a unique statewide economic development resource. CERB
assistance is valued because it helps communities:
• Respond rapidly to immediate business siting and expansion needs.
• Build feasible industrial sites for future business development.
• Target expansions in manufacturing, food processing, assembly, warehousing, industrial distribution, advanced
technology, and other key sectors.
• Spur creation and retention of higher wage jobs.
Since 1982, CERB has encouraged new development and expansion in areas where growth is desired. The Legislature
created CERB to provide low-interest loans (and in unique circumstances, grants) to help finance the local public
economic development infrastructure necessary to develop or retain stable business and industrial activity. These
improvements include industrial water, general-purpose industrial buildings and port facilities, sanitary and storm
sewers, industrial wastewater treatment facilities, railroad spurs, telecommunications, electricity, natural gas, roads, and
bridges. CERB investments have been made in all 39 counties since the program began.
The 20-member Board represents private and public sectors from across the state, as designated in statute. The Board
sets policy and selects projects to receive CERB financing assistance. Administrative support to CERB is provided within
the Local Government Division of the Department of Commerce. CERB’s statutory authority is codified in Chapter 43.160
RCW.

Statewide Investments (approved 2015-2020)
Between January 2015 and September 2020, CERB approved 136 projects (15 projects with Tribes), investing more than
$45.3 million in 93 communities across Washington State. Funds were awarded among a wide spectrum of projects,
ranging from helping rural communities plan for economic development and broadband planning to building re-
purposing and water system improvements.
These investments are made with an expectation that the job creation estimates provided as part the application, will
be met within five years of the public project’s completion. Given this rigorous standard and some challenging economic
times, the success of 131 projects completed over the last five years speaks volumes to CERB’s accomplishments.
Not only does CERB select strong projects that provide results for the state and local communities, but CERB also rewards
projects that are fiscally sound. To date, there have been no delinquencies and only two restructures of CERB loans; CERB
has never terminated a project.

Community and Economic Development (approved 2013-2020)
Project Trends
With staff's focus on outreach and education, CERB has seen a record number of applications since 2013. While the state
was recovering from the recession, communities started looking at their future in a more focused manner. The record
number of applications that CERB has received ,have been mostly for planning projects. Communities are taking the
time to plan for their futures, making their communities a place that the residents want to live and raise their families,
not just a place to work.
Prior to 2013, in any given biennium, CERB funded approximately 6 to 8 planning projects. In 2013-19, CERB funded 94
planning projects. To date, CERB has funded 26 planning projects during the 2019-21 biennium, for a total of 122 projects
in seven years (see project trends graphic). Since 1992, CERB has funded a total of 192 planning projects.
As a result of the record number of planning projects, CERB has a built in project pipeline for future construction
projects. Not all projects will be found feasible for construction, and not all construction projects will be funded by CERB.
However, there is a potential that 68% of the planning projects would come back to CERB for construction funding.
If 82 projects came back to CERB for construction funds, at the average $1.5 million a project, the project potential is the
following (see pipeline):
• $123 Million CERB Funds
• $257 Million Match
• $3.5 Billion Private Investment

Community Impacts & Benefits of CERB Investments
Investment in Economic Development Infrastructure = jobs
CERB investments connect the community.
CERB invests in public infrastructure supports private businesses, which leads to job creation and retention.
CERB's investment also has many ancillary benefits that support community development and the future of
Washington citizens.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)
Digital Inclusion
CERB funded rural broadband planning studies require the following to be looked at and documented:
• Affordable Internet –Describe how the community will address providing affordable internet options.
• Affordable Equipment - Describe how the community will expand the availability of affordable equipment to low-
income residents.
• Digital Literacy Training – Describe how the community will teach people to use technology.
• Public Computer Access –Describe how the community will increase public computer access locations.
Workforce
Core CERB funded construction projects require the business, through a contingency agreement, to commit to the
following:
That the business contact the local Workforce Development Council (WDC) and the State Employment Security
Department, for assistance in filling new positions.

Project Highlight - City of Arlington
In 2017, CERB approved a $50,000 grant to the City of Arlington for
the Arlington-Marysville Manufacturing Industrial Center (AMMIC) Study. This
project consisted of a feasibility study to establish a master plan, economic
development, investment and transportation strategy to facilitate infrastructure
improvements and accommodate, attract, and retain industrial and manufacturing
uses for the City of Arlington’s portion of the AMMIC study. CERB funds were
matched by $16,667 in local resources.
This project served as the cornerstone for the development of the Arlington-
Marysville Manufacturing Industrial Center (AMMIC). This project will prepare the
AMMIC Master Development Plan. This master plan will provide the framework for
developing infrastructure that will foster economic development and investment to
attract and retain industrial uses. These industrial uses will in turn provide the family
wage earning jobs needed to support the Arlington and Marysville communities.
The City of Arlington’s project was completed March 2019. 2020 Update: Manufacturing/Industrial development occurred

Project Highlight - City of College Place
In 2018, CERB approved a $50,000 grant to the City of College Place for the South College
Place Planning Study. This project consisted of a feasibility study to determine if light
industrial (food processing/wine) would be a conducive use of 60+ acres of land located
near State Route 125 from Meadowbrook Drive to Old Milton Hwy. CERB funds were
matched by $16,667 in local resources.
Only 3.7 acres of land in the City can be used for active light industrial use. Some end
users in the food processing, warehousing, and the wine industry had expressed interest
in locating at a property along State Route 125. This project produced a detailed report
that had a location analysis, target industry study, preliminary engineering assessment,
and analysis outlined in the scope of work. Also, the City expects to get additional light
industrial jobs and to make improvements to the city infrastructure based on the information received to attract such
employers. Long-term benefits included: Information needed to attract light industrial family-wage jobs; increased
property tax; increased sales and use tax; improved livability of the city and region.

Project Highlight - City of Othello
In 2017, CERB approved a
$50,000 grant to the City of
Othello for the Water Supply
and Storage Study. This project
consisted of a feasibility study to
implement the first phase of the
City’s Water Supply Plan, which
included constructing a new
well, pump station, and reservoir.
CERB funds were matched by
$25,000 in local resources.
This study’s objective was to develop a Plan for a new well, pump
station, and reservoir. The benefits would be to help the City
restore well pumping capacity lost due to declining aquifer levels
and allow the City to explore the Grande Ronde basalts (a deeper
aquifer), as an interim measure, prior to eventual implementation
of a supplemental source of water supply. The City was at a critical
point with its water supply and continuing declines in the Wanapum aquifer threatened the City’s ability to sustain
existing businesses and industries. If historical declines in aquifer levels continue into the future, the City would not
have the capacity to serve future growth and economic development. With the strong food processing industry already
established in Othello, adequate water supply is paramount to maintaining existing industries and allowing for future
economic development. The City believed this project would have a significant effect on the City's ability to attract new
industries to locate in Othello. The City's single largest water user (Simplot) employs approximately 300 workers. If a new
industry located in the
City, due to increased
availability of water “Due to the City’s reliance on it’s sole source Wanapum aquifer declining over time, there is

Project Highlight - Port of Everett
In 2017, CERB approved a $1,850,000 loan to the Port of Everett for the
Riverside Business Park Improvement Project. This project consisted of the
construction of a connecting road, upgrading fire flow, and re-routing and
installing utilities (power, water, sewer and stormwater). Their Committed
Private Partner is KW Projects/Fed Ex. CERB funds were matched by $1,096,000
in local resources.
KW Projects built a distribution logistics facility for FedEx Freight to expand
its existing footprint. FedEx is a premier logistics company moving packages
of all sizes throughout the world. Their business model is simple: provide cost
effective and timely handling of customer products and packages with very high
customer satisfaction. The investment in North Everett recognized the changing
demographics of business and population within the Snohomish County area.
This project included two private sector developers and one well-known solid waste business that have committed to
build new manufacturing/logistic facilities. At time of application, the tenants for the business park hadn't been publicly
announced. The development companies (KW Projects and Latitude Development) moved forward to construct hundreds
of thousands of square feet of light industrial and commercial building space to support these tenants. These two
developments were expected to support in excess of 250 jobs on-site, not including the indirect and induced jobs that
will be generated from the new business. The third business is Waste Management who had signed a lease to operate an
intermodal transfer yard in the business park.

This project was required
- Patrick Pierce, former President and CEO
to provide necessary
Economic Alliance Snohomish County (EASC) utilities to support the
building development and
the transportation connections that link these parcels to nearby land, sea, and rail connections.
The Port of Everett project was completed in May 2018.
2020 Update: The Port of Everett sold the last two available industrial development parcels of the 85-acre Riverside
Business Park to Snohomish County, collectively representing approximately 15.35 acres of raw land located off East Marine
View Drive on the Snohomish River. The parcels neighbor the County’s existing solid waste facility at the business park and
provide opportunity for future expansion of solid waste and public works uses at the site. With all acreage now sold, the
Port completed the final action of conveyance of all public infrastructure to the City of Everett, including all site roadways,
utilities, and trails, as required under the General Transfer Agreement between the Port and City.
Today, the former mill site has been revisioned to drive economic success in North Everett, serving a variety of light-
industrial users representing regional service functions from aerospace supply chain to trucking and distribution.
Companies at the site include Motor Trucks International, Safran (a French aerospace company), FedEx Freight, Amazon,
Canteen, Snohomish County, Republic Services Intermodal, and more to come with completion of a few parcels under
development, planning, and tenant recruitment now. Filling the site with light industrial users has made this park an
outstanding job creator. More than 600 are employed there now and, by full build out, the land will support 800+ direct
jobs, 2,300+ indirect jobs, 700+ temporary construction jobs, and contribute $730,000 annually in new state and local tax.
This successful brownfield redevelopment has recently earned regional and national recognition. In July 2020, the Port
of Everett was recognized by the Washington Public Ports Association with the 2020 Outstanding Job Creator Award for
its transformative work to create new jobs at its Riverside Business Park. Additionally, in October 2020, the Port earned
Excellence in Economic Development Award for Real Estate Redevelopment and Reuse from the International Economic
Development Council (IEDC) for the work at Riverside Business Park.

Project Highlight - Odessa Public Development Authority
In 2011, CERB awarded a $1,200,000 loan to the Odessa
Public Development Authority (OPDA) for the Cattle
Producers of Washington Processing Facility. This project
consisted of construction of a 5,400 square foot processing
plant, to be leased to Livestock Producers Cooperative
Association (LCPA). Improvements included site preparation,
building, parking lot, and septic system. CERB funds were
matched with $798,134 in local resources.
At the time of application, OPDA partnered with the Livestock Producers Cooperative Association (LCPA), a multi-species
meat processing plant. It was formed primarily by cattle producers involved in the Cattle Producers of Washington
(CPoW), but also processed sheep, goats, pigs, and bison as well. They were a USDA-inspected slaughter and fabrication
facility, and operational in 2014.
TIMELINE:
Late 2018, OPDA contacted CERB and let them know they were concerned that LCPA’s revenues were not enough to
cover the lease payment, ultimately meaning that OPDA may not be able to cover the annual CERB repayment due July
2019.
Early 2019, CERB leadership and staff traveled to Odessa to meet with OPDA and LCPA, to discuss options for both the
PDA and the business. In May 2019, CERB approved a request to restructure the 2019 payment and re-amortize the
future payment schedule, while LCPA looked at options to increase revenue.
CERB staff worked with OPDA and received monthly updates regarding the PDA and LCPA.
In March 2020, LCPA officially closed their operations.
In May 2020, OPDA and LimitBid Packing LLC, presented to the Board a business plan outlining a proposal to reopen the
facility. LimitBid Packing, LLC was interested in moving into the facility, becoming USDA certified, and open for business
by July 2020. The timing couldn’t have been better given the current pandemic environment.

Project Highlight - Port of Camas-Washougal
In 2012, CERB approved a $50,000 grant request to the Port of Camas-
Washougal for planning funds to assist in preliminary engineering, a
development agreement and a SEPA for a 120-acre parcel that is the
largest contiguous heavy industrial zoned property in Clark County.
The Port was in need of additional building inventory to supply the
metropolitan area but lacked developable land to expand. Making
available 120 acres contiguous to Port land allows for existing tenants,
of which there are 41 with approximately 714 employees, to expand
as well as new operations to locate.
In 2016, CERB approved a $1,700,000 loan and $300,000 grant to the Port of Camas-Washougal for the 50,000 square
foot Industrial Building #18 project. This project consisted of construction of a new 50,000 square foot metal pre-
fabricated building, slab on grade, in Steigerwald Commerce Center Phase 2B, Lots 12 & 14, with the ability to demise
into fifteen (15) 3,300 square foot bays. CERB funds were matched by $3,000,000 in EDA grant funding and 750,000 in

Project Highlight - Port of Port Angeles
In 2016, CERB approved a $50,000 grant to the Port of Port Angeles
for the Marine Trades Industrial Park Site Plan. This project consisted
of a feasibility study/master plan for a marine trades industrial park at
the former K-Ply mill site. The study included a preferred site layout
alternative that would maximize the utilization of the 18 acre waterfront
site, cost estimate, and project phasing schedule. CERB funds were
matched by $50,000 in local resources.
The Port of Port
Angeles completed
environmental
cleanup of the
former K-Ply Mill site.
An analysis of the
site concluded that
the development
of a marine trades
industrial park (now
the PA-MTC) at the
site was feasible
and a Master Plan
was prepared. The
Port identified boat
building and repair
as an economic
niche, which has
potential to increase
local jobs, support
existing Port marine

The new wash-down facility would allow existing marine trades companies to efficiently pressure wash boats up to 200
feet in length prior to conducting routine maintenance, repair, or inspection activities. Adjacent to the project site there
is vessel in-water infrastructure to haul and launch vessels up to 500 tons. A deep-water pier exists adjacent to the site
and provides berthing for vessels undergoing topside repair. In 2018, there were 360 employees in the area engaged

Since the mid-1990s, State funding through CERB has been an important funding source and partner resulting in the
diversification of the Port’s industrial waterfront properties from strictly timber exports/processing to a combination of
marine trades and forest product commodity handling. CERB funding assistance has been key in creating hundreds of
marine trade jobs on the Port’s waterfront. Phase 1 of the Marine Trades Center redevelopment is a continuation of this
successful economic development and transition.

Five-Year Project Tracking
CERB tracks job and private investment data on each project for a period of five years after the public project construction is complete.
Projects on the five-year tracking list for the 2020 Legislative Report are a combination of projects completed since 2013 and new
projects approved since the 2018 Legislative Report. After five years, CERB discontinues tracking job and private investment data
as a direct result of the CERB investment. Between the prior legislative report and September 2020 (the cut-off date for inclusion
in this report), CERB has approved 53 new projects. One of those projects was withdrawn by the applicants due to changed project
conditions. The remaining 52 are shown among those listed below. Please note the following items:
• In the CERB Applicant column, the symbol (†) indicates the 52 projects funded since the 2018 Legislative Report.
• In the Private Business/Development Site column, an italicized name denotes a CERB-assisted prospective development site
where estimated job numbers depend on future business development. Businesses and actual jobs are listed as development
occurs.
• In the Actual Jobs Created & Retained column, the symbol ( ) indicates the applicant is working to complete the final CERB
contract and construction of the public infrastructure project.

Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians Resolutions #2020-46
2020 Annual Virtual Convention
RESOLUTION #2020 - 46
“SUPPORT FOR THE WASHINGTON STATE
COMMUNITY ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION BOARD”
PREAMBLE
We, the members of the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians of the United States, invoking the
divine blessing of the Creator upon our efforts and purposes, in order to preserve for ourselves
and our descendants rights secured under Indian Treaties, Executive Orders, and benefits to
which we are entitled under the laws and constitution of the United States and several states, to
enlighten the public toward a better understanding of the Indian people, to preserve Indian
cultural values, and otherwise to promote the welfare of the Indian people, do hereby establish
and submit the following resolution:
WHEREAS, the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI) are representatives of
and advocates for national, regional, and specific tribal concerns; and
WHEREAS, ATNI is a regional organization comprised of American Indians/Alaska
Natives and tribes in the states of Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Montana, Nevada, Northern
California, and Alaska; and
WHEREAS, the health, safety, welfare, education, economic and employment
opportunity, and preservation of cultural and natural resources are primary goals and objectives
of the ATNI; and
WHEREAS, the ATNI Telecommunications Committee has been working diligently to
address the lack of access to infrastructure that provides high speed internet and cell phone
coverage in rural native communities; and
WHEREAS, ATNI member Tribes have made significant progress to inform, educate
and advocate on broadband needs to the United States Congress as well as State Legislatures, the
impact on Tribal economic development from the lack of broadband access; and

Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians Resolutions #2020-46
AFFILIATED TRIBES OF NORTHWEST INDIANS RESOLUTION #20 - 46
WHEREAS, the Community Economic Revitalization Board (CERB) in Washington
State is authorized to make economic development loans and grants, which includes funding for
rural broadband infrastructure to local governments and to federally recognized Indian tribes;
and
WHEREAS, CERB’s Legislative Members have submitted proposed legislation to
codify the Board’s rural broadband program; and
WHEREAS, the codification of this program into RCW 43.160 will make this a core
function of CERB; and
WHEREAS, this will give stability and confidence to local governments and federally
recognized Indian tribes, as they are planning for future broadband projects, that there is a
permanent funding mechanism for them to access; and
WHEREAS, CERB has submitted a capital budget legislative request in the amount of
$40 million ($25 million Core CERB and $15 million Rural Broadband) which will allow CERB
to continue funding community and economic development infrastructure projects and increase
project development opportunities for local governments and federally recognized Indian tribes;
and
WHEREAS, this will empower CERB to continue making grants and loans to local
governments and federally recognized Indian tribes to build public infrastructure, which includes
high-speed, open-access broadband service to rural and underserved communities for the purpose
of community and economic development; and
WHEREAS, given the increased demand for community and economic development
infrastructure funding, without requested funding of $40 million, CERB’s funding will not last
through the 2021-2023 biennium; now
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that ATNI fully supports the $40 million budget
increase and codification of the rural broadband program for the State of Washington
Community Economic Revitalization Board to support future community and economic
development infrastructure investments.
