Office of Trade and Economic Development Infrastructure Financing Manual • Most infrastructure programs use competitive processes to select projects. • Small communities send applications to every possible funder. • This "shotgun" approach can increase local project costs, overload local debt capacity, and produce less than optimal infrastructure systems. Efforts to coordinate state and federal agency responses to economic crises have taught the value of working with resource partners to evaluate projects and investment decisions from a comprehensive, systems perspective. This project sought to create a systems approach to infrastructure financing for small communities by using a team to develop a detailed infrastructure financing manual and workshop curriculum. Results ★ The Community Economic Assistance Center (CEAC) sponsored "Infrastructure Financing Manual" produced in cooperation with Rural Community Assistance Corporation debuted at the annual Infrastructure Assistance Coordinating Council conference in a daylong training session. Over 80 conference participants attended the session. ★ Since that session, over 500 copies of the manual have been distributed to municipal and county governments and special districts. In addition to distributing hard copies, CEAC makes the manual available via the Internet as a downloadable PDF file. ★ The Rural Community Assistance Corporation is currently circulating a draft companion manual called "An Introductory Guide to Developing Water and Wastewater Projects in Small Communities" for comment. This manual will also be posted on the CEAC Web page in a downloadable PDF file when it is finalized. ★ Together, these manuals and the workshop curriculum provide elected officials and other responsible local government managers with a good basic foundation for making wise infrastructure investment decisions for their communities. Team Name: Infrastructure Financing Manual Team Team Members: All state and federal agencies involved in financing infrastructure were involved in the development and testing of this publication.

Parks & Recreation Commission Compacting the Trash State Parks accumulates trash. Lots of it. At Lake Sammamish, it took three people to empty the garbage cans during the busy summer months: a driver and two more to empty the cans into the truck. Then there was unloading to the dumpster and a back-hoe to pack it all down. Installation of a trash compactor system has reduced by half both the trash and the time needed for garbage pick-up. One person can now accomplish what three did before. There is added safety and efficiency as well as increased sanitation. Lake Sammamish staff figures that the new system will pay for itself within three years. This team coordination between Headquarters Maintenance, Region Construction and Maintenance, and the park has allowed park staff to spend less time on garbage detail. Results ★ Freed up staff time by half. ★ Less refuse – reduced by half. ★ Cost effective. ★ Increased sanitation and safety.
