DIGEST
SB 132 Engrossed 2023 Regular Session Reese
Present law authorizes a university, higher education facility, or consortium to undertake any new
construction, maintenance, or repair project not exceeding $5,000,000 solely funded from self-
generated revenues, grants, donations, or local or federal funds without being included in the Capital
Outlay Bill provided the project is approved by the appropriate governing board or management
board; the Board of Regents; the division of administration, office of facility planning and control;
and the Joint Legislative Committee on the Budget.
Proposed law increases the maximum threshold from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 and otherwise
retains present law.
Effective August 1, 2023.
