SB 1012 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to authorizing the sale or lease by the State of Texas of certain real property located in Austin, Texas.

This bill authorizes the State of Texas to sell or lease two specific properties in Austin: 20.31 acres at 4400 Shoal Creek Boulevard (used by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission) and approximately 7.5 acres near Lamar Boulevard. Proceeds from these transactions must be deposited into a dedicated fund for capital improvements to the Sam Houston Regional Library and the Lorenzo de Zavala State Archives Building. The sale or lease is contingent on constructing a new state records facility to replace the current library/records site. The fund will also support making original historical materials more publicly accessible.
