Squeezing Revenues Out of Existing State Assets

For the past seven years, the Commission has analyzed and suggested improvements in the system the State uses to manage real property. To date, few steps have been taken. The Commission produced this issue paper based on its past reports and a June 1992 public hearing. Three recommendations include giving the Department of General Services the necessary authority to dispose of surplus state lands, negotiate lease-purchase agreements and negotiate long-term leases.
