MODERATE

This bill expands the Department of Central Management Services' authority to manage and lease state properties, including the James R. Thompson Center and 115 South LaSalle Street. It removes the Thompson Center from the standard list of properties managed by the department and establishes specific, longer-term leasing rules for it and the new property to generate revenue. The changes allow for leases up to 15 years for these specific buildings, whereas other state buildings are generally limited to 5 years.

Scope change

The bill narrows the general list of properties managed by the Department of Central Management Services by removing the James R. Thompson Center, while simultaneously adding 115 South LaSalle Street to the list of properties under its management.

REQUIREMENT

Added 115 South LaSalle Street in Chicago to the list of properties managed by the Department of Central Management Services.

Established specific leasing rules for the James R. Thompson Center and 115 South LaSalle Street, allowing leases up to 15 years (with renewal options) instead of the standard 5-year limit applied to other state buildings.

Authorized the Director to rent portions of the Thompson Center and 115 South LaSalle Street for short-term periods (up to 30 days) to supplement state usage without restricting long-term availability.

SCOPE

Removed the James R. Thompson Center from the general list of properties managed by the Department of Central Management Services.
