AB321,1,3
1An Act to amend 16.848 (2) (am) of the statutes;
relating to: sale or lease of
2certain state-owned real property that was acquired, constructed, and
3improved with gift, grant, or federal funds.
Analysis by the 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.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
