Lieutenant Governor Heck thanked Secretary Wyman for the introduction. He noted the Lieutenant Governor has a statutory assignment to attend boards and commission meetings. Having lived in the South Capitol Neighborhood for many years, and as former Chief Clerk, he had responsibilities for the State Capitol Building. The opportunity to be involved in issues pertinent to the Capitol Campus are important to him. Members and staff provided self-introduction. A meeting quorum was attained.

Ms. Taylor nominated Secretary Wyman to serve as Vice Chair. Lieutenant Governor Heck seconded the nomination. By unanimous affirmation, Secretary Wyman was elected to serve as Vice Chair. Public Comments Bill Frare, Department of Enterprise Services (DES) Assistant Director of Facilities Professional Services, outlined the public comment process. Lieutenant Governor Heck encouraged citizens to be cognizant of the time and summarize comments to the extent possible. DES Planning and Project Delivery Program Manager Kevin Dragon confirmed DES received written comments by the published deadline. The comments will be included in the official meeting record. Lieutenant Governor Heck invited comments from the public. Jennifer Mortensen, Outreach Director, Washington Trust for Historic Preservation, reported the agency is a statewide non-profit dedicated to the preservation of historic places. She also submitted a letter to the committee; however, the organization is particularly concerned about the proposal and the predesign study involving the demolition of the Pritchard Library because the organization believes the building is an extremely important mid-century building of public architecture and is one of the jewels on the State Capitol Campus. She asked the committee not to approve the predesign study to afford more time to evaluate other options that would preserve the Pritchard Building and identify a suitable reuse of the building to enable retention of the building. Michelle Sadlier thanked the committee for the opportunity to speak prior to moving forward on some of the proposals. She serves as a boardmember of DOCOMOMO WEWA (International Committee for Documentation and Conservation of Buildings, Sites and Neighbourhoods of the Modern Movement) in SCC MEETING MINUTES- FINAL January 28, 2021 Page 3 of 14 Western Washington. The organization also submitted a letter to the committee. She asked for consideration of additional time to ensure the project (Legislative Campus Modernization Predesign) follows state regulations and laws including RCW 79.24.710 and RCW 79,24.720, particularly the requirement that the project comply with the U.S. Secretary of Interior Standards for Rehabilitation. The proposed demolition would be a direct violation of those standards. The request is to seek more opportunities to identify alternatives as it would be ideal from the organization’s perspective because of the importance of the building to the state and the nation. The building’s architect, Paul Thiry, also designed the Century 21 Exposition complex in Seattle. The Pritchard Building is a beautiful work of art on the campus. The organization is seeking opportunities for the committee to identify alternative uses for the building, as well as requesting the addition of the State Capitol Conservator to the planning process similar to other practices for DES projects. She understands the State Capitol Conservator was not consulted. She recommended reaching out to the Governor’s appointed State Historic Preservation Officer because there was limited conversation with the Preservation Officer to discuss alternatives. Kelly Wicker joined the meeting. Sharon Case, South Capitol Neighborhood Association, referred to materials the association provided to the committee offering more details about member concerns. The association believes that the entire expansion proposal, which could entail three individual buildings on the campus, should begin by considering the West Campus as a whole as it sets the stage for development options. The proposed three new buildings are interrelated and represent a monumental change to the campus and would have long- lasting impacts. Through the committee’s action, the association believes members have a great opportunity of getting it right by directing a development process that demands comprehensive planning. A piecemeal approach would be a huge mistake because the buildings individually should not be considered as standalone facilities because they are interrelated. The process needs to conduct an analysis of the data and the assumptions relating to campus access issues. These are perennial issues and this is a great opportunity to address transportation, parking, pedestrian use, and now after COVID, future office capacity needs based on telework experience, security that is informed by activities occurring on the campus this year, and design. The impacts to the capital city and surrounding neighborhoods must be addressed as the nexus is vital. It is also important to ensure a robust stakeholder process throughout all three stages of predesign, design, and construction. Finally, it would be important to create a mechanism to provide architectural oversight to ensure continuity of design. She understands it has been pursued for other capital cities to great success and she believes it would be a valuable step for this campus because of the amount of expansion on the campus. By addressing those vital issues, it is paramount to achieving an overarching construction project that enhances the majestic beauty and use of the State Capitol Campus. For those reasons, the South Capitol Neighborhood Association opposes the predesigns of the proposed buildings. Marygrace Goddu agreed with the previous comments. Her attendance to the meeting is in the capacity of a historic preservation officer for the City of Olympia; however, she did not anticipate providing comments and is speaking as a citizen rather than a representative of the City of Olympia. Her comments are not inconsistent with the City’s positions, which have been conveyed by a letter to the committee. Ms. Case’s comments cover the points she believes are of greatest concern to many people. As a former employee of DES for many years and participating in the development of the Development Study for the Capitol Campus in 2017, there are many more options for development of the campus than revealed to the committee, which is especially concerning to her. The issue addresses Ms. Case’s point that the work of such scale should be undertaken with a clear understanding of the larger campus and for all opportunities in a comprehensive planning context. She asked for balanced decision-making as the committee moves forward to ensure all sides are considered particularly for historic preservation, but also to ensure the process of design for the State Capitol Committee as decision-maker is fully respected. DES has been doing an amazing job of researching options at legislative direction and not at the direction of the SCC. By SCC MEETING MINUTES- FINAL January 28, 2021 Page 4 of 14 design, the SCC could be taking a more comprehensive and directive role. She looks forward to the results of the work group study underway.\ Greg Griffith, Olympia Historical Society Bigelow House Museum Organization, said the organization provided previous (written) comments. The only point he wants to reiterate not addressed

I cannot name them all, but a few are worthy of mention. Nancy Zussy, Ellen Levesque, Gayle Palmer, and Shirley Lewis at the Washington State Library were extremely helpful. Sid Snyder and Ralph Munro have each been treasured friends for more than 30 years. They probably know more about the history of this legislature than any other two people. I am honored and flattered that they would write brief forwards. There are many who have offered encouragement as I spent day after day seated at the microfilm machine in the Washington Room at the library. It is a laborious task; not easy on the eyes. They include my sons, Bruce and Tom, Scott Gaspard, Representative Shirley Hankins, Shelby Scates, Mike Layton, the late Gerald Sorte, Senator Bob Bailey, Sena- tor Ray Moore and his wife Virginia, Rowland Thompson, and numerous others who I know I’ve forgotten to mention. My special gratitude goes to Deanna Haigh who deciphered my handwriting and typed the manuscript.

    Appendix C: History of the Site

    Appendix C: History of the Site Note: This history is a compilation of a number of government documents, news stories, reports without references, and in some cases simply personal recollections. Hence the information below should be treated not as an authoritative history of the site, but rather with the intent of serving as a narrative to render a sense of place for Bill Point. Charles Schmid Geology The site consists extensively of glacial till, sand and gravel fill. It is located on top of the western extension of the seismic Blakely Fault. The steepest gravity gradient in North America is said to be SSE of Bill Point. Sedimentary bedrock raises above sea level just south of the site on Rockaway beach, and contains fossils around 19 million years old. The aquifer below the site once provided an artesian well for the site with a four feet head. Native American and Explorers 1,2 Captain Vancouver anchored off Beans Bight, south of Restoration Point on Bainbridge Island in May, 1792, while his survey teams mapped Puget Sound. He was greeted by area natives including the Suquamish and Duwamish. A member of the Suquamish named Kitsap assisted in the survey crews. At that time there were Suquamish Indian camps dotted around the island. It is said that Bill Point was named along with Wing Point as parts of the eagle for Eagle Harbor by the surveyors of the U.S. exploration under Lt. Charles Wilkes in 1841. Early History 1875-19041,2 A logger named Mike Taylor lived at the site in 1875.

June 2021 < Intentionally Blank > CAPITOL LAKECAPIT – DESCHUTESOL LAKE – DESCHUTESESTUARY ESTUARY Long-Term Management Project Environmental Impact Statement Long-Term Management Project Environmental Impact Statement Executive Summary This Aquatic Invasive Species Discipline Report describes the potential impacts of the Capitol Lake – Deschutes Estuary Long-Term Management Project on aquatic invasive species in the area surrounding the project. The Capitol Lake – Deschutes Estuary includes the 260-acre Capitol Lake Basin, located on the Washington State Capitol Campus, in Olympia, Washington. Long-term management strategies and actions are needed to address issues in the Capitol Lake – Deschutes Estuary project area. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is being prepared to document the potential environmental impacts of various alternatives and determine how these alternatives meet the long-term objectives identified for the watershed. Aquatic invasive species (AIS) include nonnative plants and animals that rely on the aquatic environment for a portion of their life cycle and can spread to new areas of the state, causing economic or environmental harm. The impacts of construction and operation of each alternative are assessed based on the potential of project alternatives to result in changes in abundance or distribution of AIS within or outside the project area from AIS transport into or out of the project area. Where impacts are identified, the report discusses measures that can be taken to minimize or mitigate potential impacts.
