Preamble

Texas Admin Code Rule

(a)When a board, commission or agency requests to lease space that is not property owned by the state, the Leasing Division shall verify that state owned space is not available.

(b)All requests for lease space must be submitted by the office of the executive director or the agency head of the requesting party.

(c)The chief administrative officer must certify the availability of funds for the leased space in question and verify the number of FTE's existing for the requested lease space location.

(d)By virtue of Texas Government Code §2165.104(c) no standard exemptions exist for any agency, board or commission regarding space requirements. All requests for space exemptions from state statute or rule shall be determined on a case by case basis by TBPC. No exemption granted by TBPC will be considered as establishing a precedent for any future exemption requests.

This agency hereby certifies that the proposal has been reviewed by legal counsel and found to be within the agency's legal authority to adopt.
