GENERAL OVERVIEW

Executive Summary 

As of July 31, 2021, Kitsap County, Washington has not incurred obligations or expenditures 

from its allocation of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). The Board of County 

Commissioners will develop a spending plan in the coming months. It is anticipated that the 

plan will continue to evolve as additional guidance is received from the federal government, and 

priorities change in response to community needs. The development of this plan will occur 

through a deliberative process that will include community engagement as described in greater 

detail within this report.

Once a spending plan has been developed, Kitsap County will develop program designs that 

are responsive to community needs, address equity, consider relevant labor standards for 

infrastructure projects, and make use of evidence-based practices as required by Department of 

Treasury guidance and reporting requirements. Future reports will include relevant 

programmatic data and performance indicators as appropriate.

Kitsap County looks forward to the opportunity to make legacy investments for the long-term 

benefit of our community using State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds in partnership with 

federal, state, and local partners.

Uses of Funds

As of July 31, 2021, Kitsap County, Washington has not incurred obligations or expenditures 

from its allocation of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds.

Promoting equitable outcomes 

Once a spending plan has been developed, Kitsap County will consider equity in its program 

designs, and measure equity in outcomes, where feasible, in accordance with Department of 

Treasury guidance. This may include targeted program eligibility criteria, ongoing outreach 

efforts for funded services and programs, and evaluation of the geographic and socio-economic 

distribution of services and projects.

In future Performance Reports, Kitsap County will present equity-related program data as 

needed in accordance with Department of Treasury reporting guidance, including information 

regarding the geographic and socio-economic distribution of services and projects, particularly 

for funding targeted to Disproportionately Impacted Communities.

Community Engagement 

Kitsap County has reached out to the community, key stakeholders, and past COVID-response 

partners regarding the use of these funds for eligible ARPA activities. This has included, but is 

not limited to, outreach to: 1) housing advocates and social services; 2) economic development 
Kitsap County, Washington 2021 Recovery Plan Performance Report 3

alliances, chambers of commerce, and small business development centers; 3) schools, youth,

and aging services; 4) broadband providers; 5) the Kitsap Public Health District and Department 

of Emergency Management; 6) internal county departments; 7) utility companies and landlords;

and 8) food providers. This outreach has focused discussions on assistance to 

disproportionately impacted communities such as low-income and/or BIPOC residents. Kitsap

County is receiving proposals for funding through 2023 and is reviewing each for eligibility, and 

eventual prioritization, as they are submitted. 

Labor Practices 

As of July 31, 2021, no funds have been allocated to, or expended on, infrastructure projects. 

For any future infrastructure projects funded with State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Kitsap 

County will consider the appropriateness of relevant labor practices as encouraged in published 

SLFRF guidance, and report on the use of such practices as required by applicable Department 

of Treasury compliance and reporting guidance. 

Use of Evidence 

As of July 31, 2021, Kitsap County, Washington has not incurred obligations or expenditures 

from its allocation of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. As applicable under Treasury 

reporting guidance for future expenditures in the Public Health, Negative Economic Impacts, 

and Disproportionately Impacted Communities expenditure categories, Kitsap County will 

identify whether State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds are being used for evidence-based 

interventions and if projects are being evaluated through rigorous program evaluations. Where 

appropriate, Kitsap County will quantify expenditures toward evidence-based interventions, 

describe project goals, and discuss relevant evidence base for such interventions.
