Bill No. HB 2007, 1st Eng.
Amendment No. (for drafter's use only)
1 (2) The department shall require any state agency
2 planning to terminate a lease for the purpose of occupying

4 which are appropriated after June 30, 2000, to state why the
5 proposed relocation is in the best interest of the state.
6 (3) The department shall, to the extent feasible,
7 coordinate the vacation of privately owned leased space with
8 the expiration of the lease on that space and, when a lease is
9 terminated before expiration of its base term, will make a
10 reasonable effort to place another state agency in the space
11 vacated. Any state agency may lease the space in any building
12 that was subject to a lease terminated by a state agency for a
13 period of time equal to the remainder of the base term without
14 the requirement of competitive bidding.
15 Section 3. Paragraphs (d) and (e) are added to

23 upon and separately state the cost of tenant improvements
24 which may qualify for reimbursement if the lease is terminated
25 before the expiration of its base term. The department shall
26 serve as mediator if the agency and the lessor are unable to
27 agree. The amount agreed upon and stated shall, if
28 appropriated, be amortized over the original base term of the
29 lease on a straight-line basis.
30 (e) The unamortized portion of tenant improvements, if
31 appropriated, will be paid in equal monthly installments over
