08:11:30 AM |
The committee was
called to order. A quorum was present. Tana Lane, State Architect;
Seth Ford, Legislative Liaison for the Department of Personnel and Administration;
and Rebecca Bayetti, Office of Legislative Legal Services, presented draft
legislation to increase the threshold for controlled maintenance projects
beyond the current $2.0 million. Committee members received copies
of draft legislation, prepared by the Office of Legislative Legal Services,
a fact sheet from DPA (Attachment A), and a memorandum from DPA and accompanying
analysis (Attachment B and Attachment C). Mr. Ford provided some
opening remarks, and responded to questions regarding the $4.1 million
threshold in the draft bill. Discussion ensued regarding the implications
of increasing the threshold, and the potential for overhauling the system
by which controlled maintenance projects are graded for criticality. Ms.
Lane responded to questions regarding how increasing the controlled maintenance
threshold would have impacted the FY 2024-25 budget cycle, and how increasing
the threshold would affect phasing of controlled maintenance projects.

Ms. Lane responded to questions regarding the origin of the scoring rubric for controlled maintenance.

Discussion ensued regarding how to move forward with the draft legislation.
