AIA|WA Protects Design Funding

After the legislature transferred nearly one billion dollars out of the capital budget to the operating budget the AIA/WA funded a study to examine the effect of the State’s capital construction spending.

As a result of the report's findings, the AIA/WA has joined a PR campaign with our friends in the construction community to protect capital budget funding. As part of that effort we are contacting local papers across the state.

Today an article was published in the Seattle Times as a result of our combined efforts! Please take a moment to read the article: Washington Legislature must not raid the capital budget to solve budget crisis.

Data from the study mentioned in the article and the results can be reviewed in full on our website at: www.aiawa.org/CapitalBudget2011.html.
