Summary

The State Controlling Board approved a $51,000 feasibility study for the Ohio Department of Health to evaluate renovating space in the 246 Building for stakeholder meetings and employee meeting rooms. Lisa Griffin said OFCC likely requires a feasibility study and that the space is near the building entrance.

The State Controlling Board on April 7 approved a $51,000 feasibility study requested by the Ohio Department of Health to evaluate reconfiguring space on the first floor of the 246 Building for meeting rooms, stakeholder gatherings and boards and commissions.

Lisa Griffin, director of government affairs for the Ohio Department of Health, told the board the agency moved into portions of the 246 Building in February 2024 and is now evaluating near-entrance space "either for meeting room space for our employees or also for the public to come in for stakeholder meetings." Griffin said her understanding is the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC) requires a feasibility study for the planned renovation and that OFCC staff could discuss their process in more detail.

Representative Stewart asked whether the building is state-owned or leased; Griffin said she believed the building is state-owned but that she would confirm and follow up.

The item was approved without recorded objection.

Ending: The department said it would confirm ownership status and proceed with the feasibility study; board members had no further objections recorded in the transcript.
