AN ACT REQUIRING THE REVIEW OF THE STATE PROPERTIES REVIEW BOARD FOR MUNICIPAL REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS FUNDED BY CERTAIN GRANTS-IN-AID.
HB 7130 requires the State Properties Review Board (SPRB) to review any real estate purchase by a municipality funded through the Urban Action grant program or Small Town Economic Assistance Program (STEAP). This review replaces all other state agency approvals for these specific acquisitions, making the SPRB the sole reviewer. The bill mandates the SPRB to send its review copy to the municipality, the Office of Policy and Management, and the administering state agency. It applies to grants used for community conservation, economic development, or quality-of-life projects in designated areas. The change takes effect October 1, 2025, with no additional fiscal impact noted.
