                          BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
                   (Executive Budget: pp. 359-364)

Office of General Services

The Office of General Services (OGS) provides four major categories of 
services to State agencies including:

--     Custodial, maintenance, security and utility services at 
       non-institutional State buildings;
--     Centralized services on a General Fund chargeback basis, including 
       communication and design and construction;
--     Procurement and lease contract negotiations; and
--     Surplus State land conveyances services.

OGS is included in the Public Protection and General Government 
appropriation bill. 

State Operations

The Executive recommends $409,256,600 representing a net increase of 
$41,691,500 over State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2000-01.

The Executive recommendation includes the following increases:

--     $1,000,000 in General Fund appropriation in the Real Property 
       Management and Development (RPMD) program, representing the 
       funding necessary to complete construction of a New York State
	   World War II Memorial on the Empire State Plaza;  

--     $608,000 in Internal Service Fund (ISF) appropriation in the 
       Executive Direction (ED) program for 5 new positions and other costs
       associated with developing a coordinated claims and loss reporting 
       system. In addition, this funding will support the cost of conducting
       two risk management pilot programs that would allow the State to 
       negotiate wrap up insurance contracts on State capital projects 
       costing more than $25,000,000, and the other, enabling OGS to 
       consolidate State maintenance contracts;

--     $15,000,000 in General Fund appropriations in the Real Property 
       Management Development (RPMD) program to cover increased utility-related
       costs for State owned buildings outside of New York City.  This represents
       more than a 30 percent increase in funding over SFY 2000-01 levels;

--     $1,300,000 in the RPMD program to cover operating costs and other costs
       associated with the new Office of State Comptroller headquarters and 
       Department of Environmental Conservation headquarters in downtown
       Albany;

--     $15,000,000 ISF funding in the ED program to pay the Power Authority 
       of the State of New York for increased utility-related costs for State
       owned office space in New York City;

--     $1,209,600 in General Fund support in the RPMD program to cover negotiated
       salary increases;

--     $2,026,400 in General Fund appropriation in the Information Technology 
       and Procurement (ITP) to cover negotiated salary increases;

--     $1,348,100 in Special Revenue-Other (SRO) funding in the ITP program 
       to cover negotiated salary increases and associated fringe benefits;

--     $6,447,100 in Special Revenue-Federal (SRF) funding in the ITP program
       to cover negotiated salary increases and associated fringe benefits; and

--     $4,653,100 in General Fund appropriation in the RPMD program to cover
       non personal service inflation adjustments.

The Executive recommendation includes the following reductions:

--     $1,779,000 in General Fund support reflecting the elimination, 
       through attrition, of 36 positions in the RPMD
       program, 5 positions in the ED program, and 7 positions 
       in the ITP program;

--     $4,100,000 in SRO funding in the RPMD program, reflecting the 
       elimination of non personal service expenses
       no longer necessary due to the sale of 270 Broadway in 
       New York City; and

--     $1,050,000 in General Fund appropriation in the RPMD program 
       resulting from savings from the
       implementation of two Risk Management pilot programs.

Capital Projects

The Executive recommends $122,200,000 in Capital appropriations, 
representing a $50,800,000 net increase from SFY 2001-02 levels.  This
increase is primarily due to costs associated with the rehabilitation 
of the State Alfred E. Smith building in downtown Albany.  In addition, 
$5,000,000 of this increase supports renovations in the State Capitol 
building.

Article VII

The Executive recommends Article VII legislation authorizing the State
to use owner controlled insurance on single public construction projects
costing more than $25,000,000, and on multiple public construction 
projects costing more than $50,000,000.  Currently private contractors 
and subcontractors working on public construction projects purchase their
own insurance.  This provision would allow the State to purchase their 
insurance for them.  The Executive estimates this will save the State 
$1,000,000 in SFY 2001-02, and these savings will grow when the program
is fully implemented. Finally, the Executive also proposes that OGS offer
coordinated centralized services for the support of State agencies,
local governments and not-for-profit organizations.
