Bill Summary

Requiring the Department of General Services to develop a plan for divesting certain properties owned by the Commonwealth.

AI Summary

This bill requires the Department of General Services (DGS) to develop a comprehensive divestiture plan for three specific Commonwealth-owned properties: White Haven Center in White Haven, Hamburg Center in Hamburg, and Polk Center in Polk, Pennsylvania. The plan must include a three-year strategy for transferring each property to a new buyer, details of any existing discussions with potential buyers, a comprehensive accounting of past and projected property maintenance costs through 2035, demolition expenses, and refurbishment costs for buildings that are not structurally sound. Within six months of the bill's effective date, the DGS must submit this detailed plan to the State Government Committees of both the Senate and House of Representatives. The purpose appears to be creating a transparent and strategic approach to disposing of these properties, likely in response to their current unused status, with a focus on minimizing ongoing maintenance expenses and finding potential new owners or uses for the facilities.
