PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
OLYMPIA MASTER BUILDERS AND THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE Providence St. Peter Hospital Foundation, Thurston Economic Development Council and a Life Director for OMB. Rob and Helena support many local organizations, including the Hands on Children’s Museum, the YMCA, Saint Martins University and Concern for Animals.
PRESIDENT KAREN McCLENNEN
O
lympia Master Builders (OMB) formed in 1959, to better the construction industry in the communities we serve. Over the years, our members have come from all sectors of the building trades including home builders, remodelers, bankers, plumbers, electricians and attorneys. OMB is committed to “building strong communities, one home at a time.” Another common ground our members share is that we live, work and play in the five counties we serve. Our members and their employees educate their children here, shop here and invest their dollars here. They tightened their belts when times were tough - while still providing jobs and contributing to our local economy. They serve on community boards, volunteer and contribute on various non-profits and charities, and are quick to lend a hand when needed.
Here is a spotlight on just three of these members: Rob Rice Homes has been building homes for 33 years – that equals almost 4,000 homes that they have provided for local community members. Rob has a passion for the community. He and his wife Helena have lived locally for many years and are proud to raise their two boys here. Rob loves coaching his sons’ athletic teams. He is also a board member of Commencement Bank,
Brian Fluetsch leads Sunset Air Inc., a 3rd generation family business. They have been a member of OMB for 42 years – the same year they started! Folks new to the community might not know that Sunset Air was started in the garage of Pete and Kathy Fluetsch. Sunset Air provides employment for approximately 150 employees. Brian’s son, Trenton Fluetsch has continued in the family business and manages their Service Department. Here is what one of their employees had to say on www.glassdoor. com: “The work environment is great and the teamwork and camaraderie are really enjoyable. The job is also really rewarding based on the impact that we have in the community. Good opportunities for job growth if you are willing to put in the work”. Olympia Federal Savings has been serving the community for over 111 years! OMB Board member Barb Whitlow, Associate VP of Residential Relationships with Olympia Federal Savings, will be celebrating her 35th year with the bank this coming January. Among Barb’s passion is sustainable building. Barb shares that “in 2012 our Green Choice Lending Programs were created to encourage energy efficiency in housing and sustainable building practices." Barb has been active with the South Sound Chapter of the EcoBuilding Guild, Olympia Master Builders' 5 Star Built Green program, as well as LEED and Passive Home volunteering to make a difference. Recently OMB staff worked with NAHB to model the estimated economic benefit from an average home-building year in Thurston County. This model captures the effect of the actual construction activity, the ripple impact that occurs when income earned is spent in the local economy, and the ongoing
impact resulting from the new homes becoming occupied. Below you will find the “cliff note” version of the results. For a copy of the full report, please contact Executive Officer, Angela White.
ONE YEAR IMPACTS The estimated one-year local impacts of building 1,000 single-family homes in Thurston County include: • • • •
$256.4 million in local income $74.4 million in local business owners’ income $182 million in local wages and salaries $44.2 million in taxes and other revenue for local governments • 3,885 local jobs PHASE I: DIRECT IMPACT OF CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY • $163.6M - Local Income • $ 55.3M - Business Owners’ Income • $108.2M - Local Wages and Salaries • $ 35.2M - Local Taxes • 2,174 - Local Jobs Supported
PHASE II: SECONDARY IMPACT OF SPENDING PHASE I INCOME AND TAXES • $ 92.8M - Local Income • $ 19M - Business Owners’ Income • $ 73.8M - Local Wages and Salaries • $ 9M - Local Taxes • 1,710 - Local Jobs Supported ONGOING EFFECTS (ANNUAL) The additional, annually recurring impacts of building 1,000 single-family homes in Thurston County include: • $39.7 million in local income • $9.1 million in taxes and other revenue for local governments • 733 local jobs These are ongoing, annual local impacts that result from the new homes becoming occupied, and the occupants paying taxes and otherwise participating in the local economy year after year.
At press time, OMB has over 463 businesses that are members – these members along with their families, their employees and their employees’ families live, work and play in the five counties we serve.

EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S MESSAGE
MEET. EDUCATE. NETWORK. GROW.
OLYMPIA MASTER BUILDERS-A FOUNDATION OF DIVERSE INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS
I
EXECUTIVE OFFICER ANGELA WHITE
f you’ve been seeing OMB around more, it’s not by accident, it’s all part of a master plan – the OMB Marketing Campaign! Over the years OMB has done a great job marketing events and activities, but there has not been a direct OMB marketing effort in years. That all changed this year when John Erwin took on the role of Membership Committee chair. He brought a proposal to the OMB Board to grow membership through the marketing of OMB. They agreed. With the fantastic work of the Membership Committee, Jill Williams, OMB’s Communications Specialist, and Jenni Hatfield, OMB’s Membership Coordinator, a campaign was born! One of the main goals was to focus on “who” OMB members are and “why” they are a member, instead of depending solely on a list of the great benefits. You’ve probably already seen this coming to fruition in the promotions being pushed out in several medias. As a part of the plan, the group also decided to give the OMB website a fresh look and feel, and add a more robust online leads generation tool for members. The addition of the leads generator resulted in a complete asso-
ciation management software change. As I write this, staff is knee deep in learning how to navigate the new software. (Side note, with any software change there can be information glitches. Please contact OMB staff if you notice anything out of the ordinary with your member information or billing in the upcoming weeks.) The new website integrates with the new software, providing a higher quality member experience. I am excited to share that, currently, OMB has 43 more members total than last year at this same time! The work the Membership Committee has been doing, along with the retention efforts by the Spike Committee, under their fearless leader Linda Mosier-Vaudt, is working! I want to give a shout out to all the OMB members who have participated as part of the new marketing campaign! Thank you for giving us your time! Please like Olympia Master Builders’ Facebook and Instagram pages (see details on page 5) and remember to comment and share posts! This will help spread the membership message!

Government Affairs
HIGHLIGHTS
Olympia Master Builders (OMB) is currently working on and/or monitoring many issues related to the building industry. To get more involved in the OMB Government Affairs Program, contact Erin Hall at erin@omb.org or (360) 754-0912.
Thurston County – 2018 Mazama Pocket Gopher Screening
City of Lacey – Annexation Amendments
Description: USFWS experienced budget cuts which resulted in the biologists they provided to the County in previous years no longer being available.
Description: The City approached OMB with draft language for a prosed amendment to annexation procedure. The change would require annexation to occur prior to a property being served by any city-owned utility unless they receive land use approval prior to Sept 01, 2018.
Status: OMB worked closely with the County to develop a new inspection process. Private biologists will be allowed for the first time (contact Erin for a list of qualified professionals). Two site inspections are still required. The County will not charge a fee for the review of a report from a private biologist. Thurston County - Comprehensive Plan: Housing Chapter Description: The Housing Chapter is a part of the larger Thurston County Comprehensive Plan. The focus of the update is on ensuring compliance with state law and incorporating new information generated since the last major update in 2005. Status: OMB has reviewed the first draft of the Housing Chapter and provided feedback. The County will be presenting the updated chapters at the July Government Affairs meeting. Thurston County – Building Code Changes Description: Thurston County asked Olympia Master Builders to assist in a review of current building code as it relates to minor permits, including permitting for exterior siding, windows and doors which do not require reframing, electric water heaters and flag poles. OMB provided feedback in May. Status: The proposed code changes scheduled to go to the Board of County Commissioners in July.
Status: A public hearing before the Planning Commission occurred June 19. After the commission makes their recommendations, City Council will hold a second public hearing. City of Olympia - Reroofing Inspection Changes Description: The City is requiring a ‘midway’ inspection during commercial or residential reroofs to ensure underlying framework is up to code. Roofer members brought the issue to the attention of the OMB Board, who formally opposed the change. Status: After meeting with OMB, the City has clarified that inspectors will only go on the roof during commercial inspections, that inspectors are not to use on-site safety equipment and created a formalized process for e-inspection in the case of inclement weather. City of Olympia - Missing Middle Housing Description: Olympia Planning Commission is considering changes which would allow for more Missing Middle Housing in Olympia (complete report at: http://olympiawa.gov/city-government/codes-plans-andstandards/missing-middle.aspx). Status: The process was delayed due to community response. The commission is reviewing each of the proposed housing recommendations individually and have voted to receive additional written comments on the subject.
Thurston / Lewis County – Rural ADU Review
City of Olympia – Water Meters for New Construction
Description: Both Thurston and Lewis Counties are reviewing the standards for ADUs in rural areas.
Description: Single family home developments were being charged the cost of full utilities upon installing water meters to check plumbing and test fire suppression systems.
Status: Early in the process. OMB has facilitated communication between staff in both counties. Lee Napier will be discussing ADUs with the Lewis Co chapter during their June meeting. Lewis County – Charter County Ballot Initiative & Freeholder Elections Description: There is a ballot initiative for Lewis County to become a charter county. As a result, freeholders will be concurrently elected in November to begin the process, should the initiative move forward. The Lewis County chapter asked for information about both in March and May. Status: The Lewis County chapter has decided not to take a stance on the issue at this time. General - Incentivized Housing Action Team Description: OMB has been participating in Thurston Thrives’ Incentivized Housing Action Team to create a real-world model of housing incentives that can be used to create mixed income development. This includes decreasing impact fees, deferring taxation, and increasing the speed of the permitting process in developments that meet affordability criteria. Status: The model will be featured in a June mini housing summit. It will be used to educate long term planning departments, elected officials and the public at large.
Status: City staff resolved the issue. Home builders can file for a “new construction water meter” permit ($50) to request a water meter. Internal accounting has been fixed so these water meters no longer trigger full utilities. At final inspection, the meter will be read and if less than $50 worth of water was used, the builder will be refunded the difference. If more than $50 was used, they will be assessed the difference. Mason County – Permit Fee Adjustments Description: Mason County has informed OMB that it will be adjusting its permit fee structure sometime this year. The adjustment will include the state-wide permit fee change and a cost of inflation. Status: OMB had an initial meeting with County staff on the issue and anticipates receiving a draft of the changes for feedback later this year. All Counties – Ruckelshaus Center GMA Review Description: The legislature is doing a state-wide review of the GMA and GMA framework (SEPA, SMA, etc). They are hosting workshops in every county. Pacific and Grays Harbor have been completed. Status: Thurston, Mason, Lewis are scheduled for the fall. If you have interest in participating, let Erin know. OMB will also be joining BIAW in a one-on-one meeting in the fall to address housing issues specifically.

The home building process
FROM PLANNING TO PURCHASE ON JUNE 1ST, OLYMPIA MASTER BUILDERS & THURSTON COUNTY REALTORS® ASSOCIATION HOSTED THE FIRST OF ITS KIND, A GUIDED JOURNEY THROUGH THE HOME BUILDING PROCESS - FROM PLANNING TO PURCHASE FOR OUR LOCAL OFFICIALS. The Home Building Bus Tour brought together local government and the businesses directly related to home construction to learn, discuss and collaborate in the face of our housing crisis. The tour was a huge success with presentations by Jeff Pantier, of Hatton Godat Pantier, on Platting, Planning and Permitting; Barb Whitlow and Eric Lake, of Olympia Federal Savings, on Risk and Financing Development; Ron Deering, of Northwest Family Homes Inc., gave a tour of a live building development at Ridge at Ward Lake, and Phil Harlan, of Keller Williams Realty, spoke about the State of Real-Estate. Local official representation in attendance was: • Thurston County Commissioner, Gary Edwards • Thurston County Manager, Ramiro Chavez • Mayor of City of Lacey, Andy Ryder • Mayor of City of Tumwater, Pete Kmet • City of Olympia Councilperson, Renata Rollins • City of Olympia Planning Commissioner, Joel Baxter • City of Olympia Planning Commissioner, Carole Richmond • City of Lacey Planning Commissioner, Peg Evans-Brown 10 • Chalk Line
At Hatton Godat Pantier, the group received an overview of planning and permitting across the County. They were shocked to learn that almost 1/8 of the cost of home building is related to permitting. (See chart below). After hearing from Jeff Pantier, many of our elected officials identified the planning and permitting stage of home development as a key area where they could positively impact the rate of home building. Possible solutions include expanding preliminary approval timelines, allowing administrative approval at certain points, expanding zoning designations, allowing for small lot sizes, and creating a modified impact fee program to encourage specific types of units. Pantier noted that while all four jurisdictions had helpful and problem-solving staff there were still many challenges to planning for new construction. Availability of land, zoning, long review timelines and impact fees increase development costs and make local homes even more unaffordable. After learning about the protracted process to get final approval, Commissioner Edwards expressed interested in removing unnecessary steps in County permitting. And OMB will be

Moreover, the hurdles developers AWAY FROM THE HOME experience at a local THEY KNOW AND LOVE.” level directly relate to their ability to get -ERIC LAKE financing. When reg OLYMPIA FEDERAL SAVINGS ulatory hurdles make financing even more difficult, the result is often that local, mid-sized builders don’t take on the projects that would have benefited the whole community. Barb Whitlow, of Olympia Federal Savings, states “The Thurston County housing market is currently experiencing increased demand for new homes due to the lack of existing inventory of properties for sale in our area. This market demand is increasing the costs of land, construction materials, labor and home prices. As a result of many market conditions, jurisdictions, Realtors, lenders and builders are collaborating more than ever before to develop new ideas for affordable housing solutions.” The aggregate impact of a housing shortage can be seen boldly in the real estate market. Phil Harlan provided the bottom line: there simply aren’t enough homes to go around. When a house is listed, it’s sold quickly and often over the asking price. Three years ago, homes were on the market for an average for 30 day, but as of this summer, they only stick around for about 10 days. This competition raises prices and makes it near impossible for households looking for moderate priced housing to find a new home.
Erin Hall, OMB's Government Affairs Director, adds, "This tour is an important first step in addressing our housing shortage locally. The engagement, open dialogue and problem solving that happened in just a few hours on the Bus Tour shows how much progress can be made when we work together. It’s a message OMB is proud to share: when we care about homes, we care about our community." Chalk Line • 11
