     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1252 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to change the way Department of Accounting and General Services (DAGS) construction projects are assessed by having the assessments be a percentage of all state fund appropriations for capital improvements designated for the construction cost, provided the assessment moneys apply only to capital improvement appropriations that are designated for the construction and renovation of state buildings.

 

     DAGS commented on this bill.

 

     Your Committee has amended this bill by:

 

     (1)  Changing its effective date to July 1, 2030, to                    facilitate continued discussion; and

 

     (2)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity,      consistency, and style.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1252, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1252, H.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
