Executive summary
Overview
In nearly every Washington community, the rising cost of land and construction negatively affects the ability of
affordable housing providers to develop housing for people with low incomes.1 This is especially true in high-
cost areas like the Puget Sound region but growing across the state as housing prices increase. The use of
state-owned real property provides a low-cost or no-
cost option if the land is used for public benefit, such Table 1: State Surplus Suitable Properties
as for affordable housing for people with low incomes.

Since 1993, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) Agency Situs Address Location District
has worked with other state agencies to provide an S Forest St. & W Newell Westport,

officials and legislators, the public, and other interested parties. The program's goal is to promote the use of
state-owned surplus properties for public benefit, specifically to increase the supply of quality, safe and
affordable housing units.
RCW 43.63A.510 requires designated state agencies to report annually by November 1 and Commerce to
submit its analysis to the Office of Financial Management and appropriate policy and fiscal committees of the
legislature by December 1. Therefore, this preliminary determination of suitability for development is based on
a swift analysis of state agency reports, in which properties that were clearly unsuitable for affordable housing
development consideration were eliminated.
Surplus Property Inventory annual update
In total, the six designated agencies reported 33 surplus properties that are available for sale, transfer, or
lease. PARKS reported 23 and DNR reported 10. Four reported no surplus properties. None of the designated
agencies disposed of any public properties for affordable housing, under the authority of RCW 39.33.015,
during the one-year period from Nov. 1, 2020, to Nov. 1, 2021. The State Surplus Property Program also
requested the Surplus Property Inventory of the Real Estate Services Program of the Washington State
Department of Transportation (WSDOT), which reported a further 14 properties. The total number of properties
subject to suitability determination in this report is 47.
Of these 47 properties, the State Surplus Property Program determined that nine are suitable for consideration
for affordable housing development and 38 are not suitable. PARKS and DNR reported no changes to their
inventory from the prior year. WSDOT's surplus properties account for all of the increase in new state-owned
parcels on the State Surplus Property Program's 2021 inventory list.
The increase in the number of surplus properties from PARKS is due to separating all properties that were
previously reported together for individual parcel evaluation. These include the PARKS properties at Nolte
State Park near Naco, the Bottle Beach properties south of Ocosta, the Crystal Falls State Park properties east
of Colville, and the four lots between Government Way and Houston Road west of Spokane. The WSDOT
properties at Patton Boulevard and Harris Road in Moses Lake were also separated to include individual parcel
evaluations.
Conclusion
The State Surplus Property Program inventory list consolidated 47 properties in 2021:
Nine properties (19%) on the Surplus Property Inventory are suitable for consideration of affordable
housing development.
Thirty-eight properties (81%) on the Surplus Property Inventory are not suitable for consideration of
affordable housing development.
No properties from the 2020 State Surplus Property Program Report were transferred, leased, or disposed
by designated agencies for affordable housing development under the authority of RCW 39.33.015.

Program history and authorizing legislation
The potential to use available state properties for capital investments has gained attention among lawmakers
in recent years. In 2018, the Washington State Legislature directed Commerce to produce a report on state-
owned surplus properties that could be developed into affordable housing and increased the number of
reporting agencies from five to six.3 More detail on the history of this program is in the 2018 State Surplus
Property Program Report.
RCW 43.63A.510 established statutory requirements for the State Surplus Property Program, creating the
framework for the property suitability criteria the program uses.
RCW 43.63A.510 - Affordable housing — Inventory of state-owned land
(1) The department must work with the designated agencies to identify, catalog, and recommend best use of under-
utilized, state-owned land and property suitable for the development of affordable housing for very low-income, low-
income or moderate-income households. The designated agencies must provide an inventory of real property that is
owned or administered by each agency and is vacant or available for lease or sale. The department must work with
the designated agencies to include in the inventories a consolidated list of any property transactions executed by the
agencies under the authority of RCW 39.33.015, including the property appraisal, the terms and conditions of sale,
lease, or transfer, the value of the public benefit, and the impact of transaction to the agency. The inventories with
revisions must be provided to the department by November 1st of each year.
(2) The department must consolidate inventories into two groups: Properties suitable for consideration in affordable
housing development; and properties not suitable for consideration in affordable housing development. In making
this determination, the department must use industry accepted standards such as: Location, approximate lot size,
current land use designation, and current zoning classification of the property. The department shall provide a
recommendation, based on this grouping, to the office of financial management and appropriate policy and fiscal
committees of the legislature by December 1st of each year.
(3) Upon written request, the department shall provide a copy of the inventory of state-owned and publicly owned
lands and buildings to parties interested in developing the sites for affordable housing.
(4) As used in this section:
(a) "Affordable housing" means residential housing that is rented or owned by a person who qualifies as a very low-
income, low-income, or moderate-income household or who is from a special needs population, and whose monthly
housing costs, including utilities other than telephone, do not exceed thirty percent of the household's monthly
income.
(b) "Very low-income household" means a single person, family, or unrelated persons living together whose income is
at or below fifty percent of the median income, adjusted for household size, for the county where the affordable
housing is located.
(c) "Low-income household" means a single person, family, or unrelated persons living together whose income is
more than fifty percent but is at or below eighty percent of the median income where the affordable housing is
located.
(d) "Moderate-income household" means a single person, family, or unrelated persons living together whose income
is more than eighty percent but is at or below one hundred fifteen percent of the median income where the
affordable housing is located.

2021 annual report inventory of state-owned real properties and recommendations 4
(e) "Affordable housing development" means state-owned real property appropriate for sale, transfer, or lease to an
affordable housing developer capable of:
(i) Receiving the property within one hundred eighty days; and
(ii) Creating affordable housing units for occupancy within thirty-six months from the time of transfer.
(f) "Designated agencies" means the Washington state patrol, the state parks and recreation commission, and the
departments of natural resources, social and health services, corrections, and enterprise services.

State Surplus Program improvements
In 2021, the State Surplus Program worked to improve stakeholder outreach and increased the types of
information available in the annual report. The results of these strategies are evidenced by the new online map
discussed below, in addition to the content found in this report.
New mapping tool shows inventory
During the report interim, improving the visibility of the program inventory was identified as a means to engage
more directly with stakeholders.
Additionally, mapping an up-to-date Image 2: 2021 State Surplus Program Parcel Location Map
inventory list of available parcels is
considered best practice for state
surplus real property programs4
because it helps inform the public
and non-profit housing
organizations.
With these goals in mind, a mapping
tool5 was created to show where in
Washington each surplus parcel is
located, which agency owns the
parcel, and includes property
datasheets detailing the criteria of
the property's suitability based on
requirements of RCW 43.63A.510.
Each property displayed also
includes contact information for the
state agency representative who
manages that agency's surplus property.
Leveraging state and federal agency data sources
With this report, the State Surplus Program expanded the use of publically- and privately-available data sources
that are beneficial for determining the suitability of the state-owned surplus properties (Table 2). These
sources are used in the online map and in the property datasheets found in Appendix D.

Creation of a spatial database
A spatial database that includes information on critical areas, such as wetlands, geological and erosion
hazards using county geographic
information services programs was
Image 3: State Surplus Program spatial database
created as a unified source of
location information. However, many
Washington counties do not have
this information available online.
Local government comprehensive
plans and critical areas maps were
used to check these location details
when county data was not available.
As state surplus properties are
added to the inventory, the database
will streamline the process of
analyzing properties for potential
affordable housing suitability based
on the embedded criteria. The
database also includes key interest
points to affordable housing
developers, such as distances to
nearby transit lines, child care
centers, schools, and grocery stores, among other such points of consideration in the Washington State
Affordable Housing Combined Funders Standards and Evergreen Sustainability Development Standards.
Additionally, the database contains pertinent U.S. Census data from the American Community Survey that
details homeowner and rental demographics, income, and socioeconomic characteristics. These details will be
integrated into future iterations of the State Surplus Annual Report to build neighborhood-level profiles in areas
with suitable state surplus property sites.

Determination of affordable housing suitability
Affordable housing suitability criteria
In developing the suitability criteria, Commerce aligned the four industry-accepted standards in Table 4 with
the goals and standards used in the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA)6 and Washington State
Affordable Housing Combined Funders application.7 A number of affordable housing development entities
adhere to the Washington State Affordable Housing Combined Funders standards, including:
Washington State Housing Trust Fund
City of Seattle Office of Housing
King County and Snohomish County local and Department of Housing and Urban Development-funded
affordable housing programs
A Regional Coalition for Housing (ARCH)
Washington State Housing Finance Commission for Low-Income Housing Tax Credits
Table 3 details Commerce’s criteria in determining the property’s suitability for affordable housing
development. The first column describes criteria that suggest a property might be suitable for consideration.
The second column describes criteria that tend to exclude a property from being suitable, absent significant
extenuating circumstances.

State Surplus Property results
Properties suitable for consideration in affordable housing
development
Of the 47 surplus properties consolidated in the State Surplus Program's 2021 inventory, nine are suitable for
further consideration for affordable housing development and 38 are unsuitable. Table 4 lists the suitable
properties and provides the street or nearest intersection of the property, which hyperlinks to the county
assessor’s map for each property, when available. The table also includes relevant parcel data, the land-use
designation of the parcel, city or county zoning code information of the parcel, and the page number where
more detailed parcel information can be found in Appendix D.

The results of this report are not conclusive, but rather reflect data provided by participating state agencies
and accessible digitally. Site-specific visits and consultation with the jurisdiction's planning department would
be required to reconcile conflicting data, gather missing data, and verify the suitability of these properties for
affordable housing development.
Supplemental State Surplus Property information and results
Appendix A provides a review of the definitions contained in RCW 43.63A.510 (Affordable Housing — Inventory
of State-owned Land), and RCW 39.33.015 (Transfer, Lease, Disposal of Public Property for Affordable
Housing.) Appendix B includes the list of surplus properties that are unsuitable for consideration in affordable
housing development in Table 1.
2021 annual report inventory of state-owned real properties and recommendations 11
Appendix C describes the methodology for the expanded data collected for suitable properties in the State
Surplus Property Inventory. Appendix D has detailed information on the nine properties that were determined
to be potentially suitable for affordable housing development.
Conclusion
State Surplus Property Program Inventory findings
The State Surplus Property Program inventory list consolidated 47 properties in 2021:
Nine properties (19%) on the Surplus Property Inventory are suitable for consideration of affordable
housing development.
Seven of these suitable properties are located in Western Washington and two are located in Eastern
Washington.
Thirty-eight properties (81%) on the Surplus Property Inventory are unsuitable for consideration of
affordable housing development. Unsuitable properties typically have more than one disqualifying feature,
with the primary reason being a lack of infrastructure:
Twenty-seven properties (71%) lack access to at least two types of utilities (power, water and sewer)
Twenty-five properties (66%) have zoning restrictions
Nineteen properties (50%) do not have a legal access
Thirteen properties (34%) have a lot is too small for residential development based on local code
Ten properties (26%) with wetlands present
Ten properties (26%) with geologic hazards present
Seven properties (18%) with erosion impediments present
No properties from the 2020 State Surplus Property Program Report were transferred, leased, or disposed
for affordable housing development under the authority of RCW 39.33.015.

household income has exactly enough income to qualify for a mortgage on a home priced at 85% of the
median.14 As illustrated in Figure 2, there was a temporary increase in affordability throughout the state in
2020, but the trend in decreasing housing affordability throughout the state in years prior continued in 2021.
Using state-owned surplus properties for affordable housing
development
Although no properties on the State Surplus Property Program's inventory were used for affordable housing
development throughout 2020-21, programs within Commerce note a substantial need for this type of
construction in Washington.15 The State Surplus Property Program plans to continue working to improve the
quality of this report and its visibility with interested stakeholders. With the continued support of designated
state agencies, the State Surplus Program Report can be an additional tool to support efforts that result in
more affordable housing throughout the state.

Appendix C: Expanded data collected for suitable
properties in the State Surplus Property Inventory
The suitability of a property was defined by RCW 43.63A.510 (2) as:
Lot characteristics, for example lot size
Current land-use designation
Current zoning code and ability to develop all forms of affordable housing
Location characteristics and impediments to construction
In 2019, the State Surplus Property Program decided to include more detailed location information about the
properties on the surplus inventory list. After review of Washington State Affordable Housing Combined
Funders applications and the Department of Commerce Housing Trust Fund handbook, additional criteria were
selected to provide more detailed property data to potential affordable housing developers. Criteria included:
Analysis of lot size and land use that fits within zoning requirements
Permitted construction of single-family dwellings, multi-family dwellings and group homes
Evaluate the presence of tsunami hazards, critical areas and wetlands in the property's vicinity
Establish whether properties have access to roads and basic utilities
Determine there are no geological or environmental impediments to development
Calculate the distance to basic services, such as schools, medical facilities and grocery stores
Assess if properties have access to employment centers
The results of this report are not conclusive; they merely reflect data provided by participating state agencies
— Washington State Patrol, State Parks and Recreation Commission, Department of Natural Resources,
Department of Social Health Services, Department of Corrections, Department of Enterprise Services, the
Department of Transportation — and digitally accessible data.
In some cases, discrepancies between information gathered by agencies and county assessors prevented
determination of a property’s suitability. In other cases, the requisite data to determine a property’s suitability
could not be located.
Site-specific visits would be required to reconcile conflicting data, gather missing data, and verify the suitability
of these properties for affordable housing development.
