| Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: |
|
| | This bill is a concept draft pursuant to Joint Rule 208. |
|
| | This bill proposes to move current oversight of state- | approved school construction projects from the Department of | Administrative and Financial Service, Bureau of General | Services to the Department of Education. |
|
| | The purpose of this change would be to create a single | oversight and service entity, so that all of the major | functions, from application through final project completion, | associated with school construction projects are delivered | from a single agency. |
|
| | Under the bill, fees currently collected by the Bureau of | General Services would be assigned to the Department of | Education to support the additional responsibility the | Department of Education would assume. Position counts at the | Bureau of General Services would be transferred to the | Department of Education as necessary. |
