What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, with certain exceptions, the Department of Administration (DOA),

with the approval of the Building Commission, may sell or lease state-owned real

property if DOA determines that the sale or lease is in the best interest of the state.

The Building Commission may also sell or lease state-owned real property, subject

to the same exceptions. Any sale may be either on the basis of public bids, with DOA

or the commission reserving the right to reject any bid in the best interest of the state,

or on the basis of negotiated prices as determined through a competitive or

transparent process. This authority does not apply to any property for which the cost

of acquisition, construction, and improvement was financed at least 50 percent with

federal funds or at least 50 percent with gift or grant funds.

This bill provides that this authority does not apply to any property for which

the cost of acquisition, construction, and improvement was financed at least 25

percent with federal funds or at least 25 percent with gift or grant funds.
