Title

Education Dept., state property, Dept. of Edu., has authority to manange the construction and renovation of property that is part of a state educational institution, Sec. 41-4-400 am'd.

Description

Under current law, the Division of Construction Management within the Department of Finance is tasked with oversight of certain aspects of state, municipal, and educational property management that was previously delegated to the Building Commission. Particularly, the Division of Construction Management oversees the construction and renovation of state, municipal, and certain educational property, from the bidding process to construction administration.

This bill would provide that this authority of the Division of Construction Management does not extend to educational institutions or state educational institutions. Instead, that authority would be transferred to the Department of Education as it relates to K-12 public schools, and the governing board of each public postsecondary institution and public institution of higher education.
