Bills: HB2295
Summary: The Capital Committee heard public testimony on Substitute Senate Bill 5901, which would change the school construction assistance program formula by excluding school facilities on military bases from a district’s available instructional space inventory and increasing the state funding assistance percentage by 15% for projects located on a military base. Senator Leonard Christian said the bill was intended to help districts such as Medical Lake and Clover Park, where base schools can reduce eligibility for off-base school construction funding. OSPI, Clover Park, and Medical Lake testified in support, while one citizen raised broader concerns about school funding and federal lands. No vote was taken on the bill during this hearing. The committee also heard Engrossed Second Substitute Senate Bill 5061, which would require annual adjustments to prevailing wage rates in public works contracts, with exemptions for small works rosters and residential construction and a delayed effective date of July 1, 2028. Senator Steve Conway described it as a technical fix to align contract wages with regularly updated prevailing wage rates and said the bill would not affect the general fund, though it could increase project costs. Supporters from labor groups said the bill would prevent wage stagnation on long projects and improve workforce retention; contractors and AGC opposed it or sought a change-order safeguard if wage increases exceed 5%, citing unpredictability and potential cost impacts. L&I said its fiscal note reflected significant IT and administrative changes needed to implement the new system. The committee then moved to House Bill 2295, heard a staff briefing on a proposed substitute that would add funding for several new projects and make technical and language changes, with a net increase of $611,000 in bonds and $3 million from the waste tire removal account. In executive session, the committee adopted the proposed substitute and voted 18-0, with one excused, to report Substitute House Bill 2295 out of committee with a do-pass recommendation. The chair also announced plans for future executive sessions, including consideration of Substitute Senate Bill 5901, and noted the committee would wait for the Senate capital budget before final action on the capital budget bill.
