State agency property; authorize DFA as central leasing agent for all state agencies.

Summary

The bill would require every Mississippi state agency—except the military, universities and community colleges—to get approval from the Department of Finance and Administration’s Bureau before leasing office space in privately owned buildings, and would have the bureau handle all lease negotiations and contracts. It also sets standards for how space is used, encourages agencies to share buildings to cut costs, and mandates annual reporting on potential savings. The measure was intended to create a more efficient, cost‑effective process for state office space.
