2013 Adopted Operating Budget City of Olympia | Capital of Washington State The cover photo is of the Olympia Artesian Well, which was purchased by the Olympia City Council in July, 2010. In the Spring of 2012, improvements were made, including solar lighting, a community message board and a raised area to fill bottles. Additionally, a community art project, provided by a grant from the Downtown Parking Improvement Area, brought color to the area: bright green and blue fish mosaics now cover the concrete. 2013 Adopted Operating Budget Prepared by the City of Olympia Administrative Services Department P.O.
