Editor's Notes
CWU owns 380 acres of land, 255 of which are developed. The campus has 196 buildings totaling 3.2 million gross square feet (GSF). 59 buildings are non-residential facilities (2.1 million GSF) and 25 are residential facilities (1.1 million GSF).
Operating Budget: Employee salaries and benefits, leases, goods and services. The revenues in these accounts are primarily from the retail sales tax, the business tax, and the state property tax
Transportation Budget: capital costs of highways, ferries, bridges, public airports, rail. The revenue is from state gas tax, licenses, fees, and federal funds and bonds.
Capital Budget: The House committee primarily responsible for the capital budget is the Capital Budget Committee involving: state office buildings; colleges and universities; prisons and juvenile rehabilitation facilities; parks and recreational facilities; K-12 schools; affordable housing; water quality infrastructure; and other capital facilities and programs.
For the 2017-19biennium, new appropriations in the capital budget total $4.4billion, including $2.9billion from state general obligation bonds and $1.4billion from a variety of dedicated fees and taxes, federal funds, timber revenues, and the building fee portion of student tuition payments.
Additionally, $2.5billion is reappropriated for uncompleted projects approved in prior biennia. There is a total of $6.86 billion in capital appropriations and reappropriations.
The Capital Master Plan sets as priorities academic quality, aesthetics, pedestrian access, and sustainability, including preserving green space. The plan identifies top priorities for state construction funding as well as smaller, though critical, renovation needs. The plan underscores the need to adapt nimbly to changes in technological platforms for secure and engaging student life, teaching and learning, and business functions. Where possible, these adaptations should generate value and foster data-driven decision-making.
Define the two flavors of MW Preservation and Program.
7m Allocated to Preservation.
Talk about Limited Transparency to the campus community.
Heavy focus on energy distribution infrastructure.
REQUESTED AN EXAMPLE FROM DOUG
Requested of T Jackson the cost ranking of these bullet items.
New prioritization model.
Large sums of MW goes to low visible areas.
Emergency prioritization always an issue.
Defined categories and transparent prioritization will
Provide better defined use of funds.
1m Allocated despite robust request.
Work historically has been focused within the Consolidated Small Program Projects. Projects run between 25-50K.

Collaboration and Integration with Campus Master Plan
The master plan assumes continued integration with city and county planning. Like these municipalities, CWU is looking ahead to plan to accommodate the demands of population growth. The affordability and bucolic nature of Kittitas County generally, and Ellensburg specifically, are increasingly attractive to individuals and businesses in neighboring King County.
