Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Significant provisions of the bill and any related workload or policy assumptions that have revenue or expenditure impact on the responding agency by
section number.
This bill adds the requirements for the Emergency Management Division (EMD) within the Military Department to maintain
a statewide recovery framework and prepare and administer a state program for long-term community recovery assistance.
The program shall provide: Assistance to county and tribal governments with long-term community recovery planning;
Develop and regularly update a manual to facilitate long-term community recovery; Issue grants to counties and Indian
tribes to assist with the establishment and operation of long-term community recovery groups; Provide training focused on
long-term community recovery; Create and regularly update a resource directory of state, federal, and international
agencies, volunteer organizations, and service providers that may assist individuals and communities during long-term
community recovery.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency with the cash receipts provisions identified by section number and when appropriate, the
detail of the revenue sources. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the cash receipts impact is derived. Explanation
of how workload assumptions translate into estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.
II. C - Expenditures
Agency expenditures necessary to implement this legislation (or savings resulting from this legislation), with the provisions of the legislation that result in
the expenditures (or savings) identified by section number. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the expenditure
impact is derived. Explanation of how workload assumptions translate into cost estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.
The EMD expenditures necessary to implement this legislation are primarily comprised of staff salary and benefits for a
Long-Term Recovery Coordinator (EMPS-2), a Recovery Grants Coordinator (EMPS-2), and a Recovery Program
Assistant (EMPS-1) in its Operations/Mitigation & Recovery section. This would be a total of 3 FTEs of staff beginning in
SFY 25.
Other included costs are goods and services, travel to support participation in related workgroups and meetings (estimated
at 10 times per year), and indirect inter-agency reimbursement (at 15%).
In addition to the estimates in the expenditure detail, the grants to counties and tribes for the establishment and operation of
long-term community recovery groups are indeterminate. EMD estimates it will require $2,000,000 per biennium
appropriated out of the Disaster Response Account (05H) to provide grants to communities. This assumes funding for 2
FTEs of staff per jurisdiction, at an estimated cost of $150,000 per jurisdiction per year; for up to 5 communities per year,
plus each jurisdiction authorized grant reimbursement for up to $50,000 in other operating costs (travel, legal services,
training, and other miscellaneous costs) for a total of $1,000,000 per year / $2,000,000 per biennium.

Part IV: Analysis
A. SUMMARY OF BILL
Description of the bill with an emphasis on how it impacts local government.
Overview: Requires the adjutant general to maintain a statewide recovery framework and prepare and administer a state
program for long-term community recovery assistance to county governments within the state which experienced an
emergency or disaster.
Sections that impact local government:
Sec. 1 (Amends RCW 38.52.030):
(12) Adds language which requires the adjutant general to maintain a statewide recovery framework and prepare and
administer a state program for long-term community recovery assistance to county governments within the state which
experienced an emergency or disaster. The program must provide assistance to counties to facilitate long-term community
recovery by:
(a) Assisting county with long-term community recovery planning
(b) Developing and regularly updating a manual to facilitate long-term community recovery
(c) Issuing grants to counties to assist with establishment and operation of long-term community recovery groups
(d) Providing training focused on long-term community recovery in cooperation with local organizations for emergency
services or management
(e) Creating and regularly update a resource directory
B. SUMMARY OF EXPENDITURE IMPACTS
Expenditure impacts of the legislation on local governments with the expenditure provisions identified by section number and when
appropriate, the detail of expenditures. Delineated between city, county and special district impacts.
This legislation would have an indeterminate expenditure impact on local governments.
It is assumed that local governments will incur costs associated with preparing and submitting a competitive grant
application. The costs for local governments to apply for state grant or loan programs is indeterminate. Research prepared
by the Local Government Fiscal Note Program in 2008 indicated a cost range of $10,000 to $20,000 per application at that
time. Using the national inflation rate from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, it is estimated that comparable figures would be
$14,700 to $29,400 in 2024
C. SUMMARY OF REVENUE IMPACTS
Revenue impacts of the legislation on local governments, with the revenue provisions identified by section number, and when
appropriate, the detail of revenue sources. Delineated between city, county and special district impacts.
This legislation would have an indeterminate revenue impact on local governments.
There is no available information on the amount of funds that will be available or awarded to counties.
