     "(3) $17,000,000 of the motor vehicle account--state appropriation is provided solely for costs associated with the construction and consolidation of facilities identified as high priority replacement projects in the facilities oversight plan prepared for the governor and the joint transportation committee of the legislature and dated September 1, 2012. $16,500,000 of this appropriation must be held in unallotted status until the office of financial management deems that revenue applicable to the sale of identified surplus property is sufficient to cover project expenditures. The Wenatchee administrative building and the Leavenworth and Blewett section maintenance facility projects are to be included in a pilot demonstration project funded by this appropriation. Revenue offsetting this appropriation is anticipated to come from the sale of properties owned by the department but no longer needed for transportation purposes. A portion of the appropriation in this section may be used to prepare, market, and sell the properties providing the offsetting revenue for this appropriation. Proceeds from the sale of these properties must be deposited in the motor vehicle account. The department shall report to the office of financial management and the transportation committees of the legislature the results of the pilot demonstration project, as well as suggestions to improve the process as a part of the department's annual facilities oversight report update.

EFFECT:  After revenue is received from the sale of department of transportation (DOT) properties that are no longer required for transportation purposes, the revenue will be used for the DOT's new Wenatchee administration building and the consolidation of the DOT Leavenworth and Blewett maintenance facilities identified as high priority replacement properties in the DOT facilities oversight plan. Up to $500,000 of the appropriation may be used to prepare, market, and sell the properties providing the revenue for this appropriation. $16.5 million of the $17.0 million must be placed in unallotted status until the office of financial management deems the revenue is sufficient to cover the project expenditures. A report on the project is due as a part of DOT's annual facilities oversight report to the office of financial management and the transportation committees of the legislature.

EFFECT:  Increases Motor Vehicle Acct - State by $17,000,000.
