SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

FASTA created the PBRB as an independent Board to identify opportunities for the Federal government to significantly reduce its inventory of civilian real property and thereby reduce costs. The Board is directed, within 6 months of its formation, to recommend to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) the sale of not fewer than five properties not on the list of surplus or excess with a fair market value of not less than $500 million and not more than $750 million. In two subsequent rounds over a five-year period, the Board is responsible for making recommendations for other sales, consolidations, property disposals or redevelopment of up to $7.25 billion in value.

Format and Registration

The format for the meeting will be panel discussions with appropriate time allowed for a Q&A segment. Interested participants must register to attend for the public meeting via this link: https://jllmeet.webex.com/​jllmeet/​onstage/​g.php?​MTID=​e56b82ebae21118cbb2919c9853546c19.
