Capital Projects

Each year the six-year Pasco School District Capital Facilities Plan is updated as required by the State’s Growth Management Act. The plan includes projections about growth in our district in order to be deliberate in our planning for future facilities. Besides growth-related projects, current and future modernization projects are included for financial planning. 

Required elements to be included in the annual Capital Facilities Plan are:

• Future enrollment forecasts for each grade span (elementary, middle and high school).
• An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by the District, showing the locations and capacities of those facilities.
• A forecast of the future needs for capital facilities and the proposed capacities of expanded or new capital facilities.
• A six-year plan for estimated financing of capital facilities within projected funding capacities which identifies sources of public money for such purposes.
• A calculation of school impact fees to be assessed pursuant to RCW 82.02.

The 2022 Capital Facilities Plan was approved by the School Board at its November 8, 2022 regular meeting.

The Pasco School District maintains a roster of architects and engineers for construction, repair, maintenance and alteration projects and the contracting of professional services by Engineers and Architects is governed by RCW 39.80. Depending on the project, the district can use any consultant or may use a solicitation process to select the most qualified. Firms must submit an application annually to remain on the roster.

Periodically, Pasco School District proposes construction projects and acts as the lead agency for review under the State Environmental Protection Act (SEPA). For non-exempt projects, SEPA requires the District’s responsible official to make a determination as to whether or not the project has a significant environmental impact. SEPA notices are posted below. In addition, the District advertises notice in a publication of general circulation in the jurisdiction of the project site. The public is welcome to make comment during the period indicated on the notice and below.
