What’s in it

AI summary State agencies would now be required to send reports to the general assembly every two years about their plans for major maintenance and technology upgrades. The department of administrative services, the department of management, and the state board of regents must all provide these updates. These reports help lawmakers see what future work is needed for state buildings and computer systems.1

Read the official explanation

Under current law, the department of administrative services (DAS) is appropriated moneys from the routine maintenance fund (funded by the rebuild Iowa infrastructure fund) for purposes of routine maintenance projects for state buildings and facilities, excluding buildings and facilities under the control of the state board of regents, department of transportation, department of natural resources, and department of public defense. Under current practice, DAS submits to the joint appropriations subcommittee on transportation, infrastructure, and capitals a list of future major maintenance projects for those state buildings and facilities that will require appropriations by the general assembly. This bill codifies that requirement in the form of a biannual report from DAS to the general assembly. In addition, the bill requires a similar report to the general assembly from the department of management (DOM) for state information technology infrastructure of DOM or supported entities, and from the state board of regents for state buildings, facilities, and information technology infrastructure of the board and its institutions.
