Criminal Justice, Department of
Texas Department of Criminal Justice Land Maximization
February 1998
Report Number 98-022
Overall Conclusion
The Department has been working with the General Land Office's appraisers and analysts to identify and dispose of those properties that do not contribute to the Department's operations. We have reviewed this process and are satisfied that appropriate properties are being sold or leased. We therefore recommend that the Department and the General Land Office proceed with the planned sale of identified properties.
Key Facts and Findings
- The General Land Office estimates that it will be able to dispose of at least $8.5 million in property for the Department by the end of fiscal year 1999Eight million five hundred thousand dollars of the Department's fiscal year 1999 appropriation is contingent upon the sale or lease of Department property.
- The process used by the General Land Office to recommend property to be sold raises some questions.
