9-5-112. Capitol building rehabilitation and restoration project; components; oversight.
(a) The department shall proceed with level III design and construction for renovation, rehabilitation, restoration and addition to the state capitol building, the Herschler state office building and the connection between the two (2) buildings in accordance with presentations to the management council of the legislature on November 18, 2013 and January 9, 2014, and the provisions of W.S. 9-5-109 through 9-5-113. The project shall proceed as a single funded project with the following components:
(i) Capitol building restoration and rehabilitation;
(ii) Herschler state office building renovation, rehabilitation and additional construction including a structure connecting the Herschler building and the capitol building and addition to the Herschler building;
(iii) Temporary space accommodations within the Herschler building and in other state owned buildings, or in other leased buildings if determined by the governor necessary or advisable for the project, for current occupants of the Herschler building and capitol building;
(iv) Restoration, rehabilitation and renovation of the Herschler building after temporary space accommodations are no longer needed;
(v) Furniture, fixtures and equipment for the project;
(vi) Contingency costs, costs of fees and other costs associated with the project.
(b) The level III design shall allocate space within the capitol building to meet legislative needs, needs of the governor's office and security needs in the capitol building as determined by the oversight group and the governor. In determining space allocations under this subsection the oversight group and the governor shall be guided by level II studies for the capitol building restoration and rehabilitation conducted in 2013. To the extent the oversight group and the governor determine that all such needs cannot be accommodated within the capitol building, legislative committee rooms and offices for committee chairmen and associated legislative session staff may be within the structure connecting the capitol building and Herschler state office building. If the governor and the oversight group determine that space will exist in the capitol building in excess of the needs of the legislature, the governor's office and capitol building security needs, then the department, in consultation with the advisory task force, shall provide one (1) or more design alternatives to the oversight group and governor for review and approval, allocating available remaining space to the statewide elected officials with offices within the capitol building as of April 1, 2014.
Note: this law is repealed by Laws 2019, ch. 197, § 2. effective 1/1/2020.
(c) The Herschler state office building rehabilitation, renovation and addition shall be designed to accommodate offices for elected state officials for which insufficient space is provided within the capitol building restoration, renovation and rehabilitation design.
(d) Repealed by Laws 2019, ch. 197, § 2.
(e) Repealed by Laws 2019, ch. 197, § 2.
(f) The department may expend funds appropriated by the legislature for the project to implement the design, renovation, restoration, rehabilitation, construction and other project components which have been included in the final design plans approved under subsection (e) of this section. Any change order to the approved final design plans in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00) or in a cumulative amount in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) shall require the approval of the governor and a majority of the other voting members of the oversight group which consist of the legislator members and the state treasurer.
