New Project Funding Opportunity:

The Kitsap PFD will benefit from legislation (EHB1201) passed in mid 2017, that allows New Projects to be funded and built in Kitsap County.

 

Proposals for new projects will be accepted through December 31, 2018 for evaluation and possible funding by the Kitsap PFD.

 

Potential New Project proposals can be presented to the KPFD Board at their Regular Meeting on Dec 3rd, 2018. Proposal Teams can make a 15 minute presentation to the Board in order to receive feedback and suggestions about improvements or suitability for consideration. Contact Executive Director, Mike Walton (execdirector@kitsap-pfd.org), to get on the Agenda.

 

NOTE:

At that meeting, the Official Application form (currently being updated) will be distributed to those projects who wish to procede in the process. The Evaluation Form, by which all the projects will be graded, will also be passed out at that meeting.

 

If the final versions are available before that meeting, they will be available here.

 

The proposed project must provide significant economic impact as well as benefit to residents and the communities of Kitsap County, in accordance with the four main goals of the Kitsap PFD. They are:

1) Economic Development;
2) Efficient use of public and private monies;
3) Innovation; and
4) Multiple use of facilities.

It must also be greater than $10 million in total value and have matching funds from a public partner no less than one-third of the project value.

The PFD has begun a months long submission period for New Projects to be funded in 2019 and beyond. Legislation passed in 2017 gives the Kitsap PFD the ability to sell bonds against future income between 2027 and 2041 that could amount to $15 million or more.

Preference would be given to projects in South Kitsap or on Bainbridge Island. but not limited to those areas of the County. They would have to be sizeable projects, amounting to $10 million or more in scope and value. There would also have to be a match of dollars, land or labor from a public partner equal to a third of the project value.

 

More information available by clicking on: New Projects.

 

NOTE:  The KPFD is providing another opportunity for those organizations or public entities wishing to qualify for the New Project funding to present their proposals. At the Regular Board Meeting on Dec 3rd, each sponsoring entity can make a 15 minute presentation of their project and get feedback from the Board about its ability to qualify for the funding. Only two, or at most three projects, may be selected to receive funding commitments by mid 2019.
