Summary

On May 7 the commission approved maintaining FY25 space rental rates for FY26, released $10.882 million (SEG REV) and $2 million (BTF) to Small Projects, and authorized DOA to request $32 million SEG REV from the Joint Committee on Finance to the Building Trust Fund for planning.

The Building Commission took several administrative and budget actions during its May 7 meeting.

Space rental rates: The Department of Administration requested and received approval to maintain existing FY25 uniform space rental rates for DOA‑managed state facilities for FY26 (effective July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026). Senator Brad Pfaff moved the request; Senator Mary Felzkowski seconded. Motion carried (8-0-0).

Small Projects release: Commissioners approved release of $10,882,000 from SEG REV All Agency allocations to Small Project allocations and $2,000,000 from Building Trust Fund allocations to Small Projects. Representative Jill Billings moved the item; Representative Robert Wittke seconded. Motion recorded as carried.

SEG REV release request to Building Trust Fund: The commission authorized the Department of Administration to request that the Joint Committee on Finance release $32,000,000 SEG REV from a supplemental appropriation to the Building Trust Fund account for preliminary planning of future projects. Representative Jill Billings moved the request; Representative Rob Swearingen seconded. Motion carried (8-0-0).

Why it matters: Maintaining space rental rates preserves the current charge structure for state agencies occupying DOA‑managed facilities. The small projects and planning funding releases free resources for near‑term facility repairs and to advance planning for future capital projects.
