Duplicative Inventory of State-Owned Real Property

Capital Development Committee. Current law requires each state agency and state institution of higher education to annually submit to the capital development committee (committee) a list of all nondeveloped real property owned by or under the control of the agency or institution (nondeveloped real property list). The committee is required to include the information from the nondeveloped real property list in an annual report, and the division of housing within the department of local affairs is required to post a link to the report on the division's website.

Current law also requires the department of personnel to maintain and annually update an inventory of unused state-owned real property and to post a list of the inventory on its website. The department of personnel may request the nondeveloped real property list as a basis for its inventory but is required to independently ascertain the inventory for its purposes.

The information collected, maintained, updated, and posted as required by these laws is duplicative. To address this, the bill repeals the statutory provisions that require the annual submittal to the committee and posting of the nondeveloped real property list and the provision that allows the department of personnel to request the nondeveloped real property list for its inventory of unused state-owned real property.
