LONG-RANGE BUILDING PROGRAM

The Long-Range Building Program is the method for state agencies to fund major repair and capital development projects. Agencies submit their requests using the LRBP Submission Portal by July 1 st of the year preceding a legislative session.

After July 1 st, A&E works with the Office of Budget and Program Planning (OBPP) to review and evaluate project requests for feasibility, agency needs and increased operating costs. Requests are then compiled into a single list of prioritized statewide projects and submitted to the Governor for review prior to October 1 st.

During the first week of each session the Governor shall submit to the legislature as part of the executive budget, the requests of all state agencies compiled in the form of a comprehensive long-range proposed building program.
