Texas SB1004 proposes evaluating the cost savings of relocating state agency headquarters outside Travis County or adjacent counties.

Texas SB1004 amends the Government Code to require the Sunset Commission, with assistance from the Texas Facilities Commission, to evaluate the cost savings of relocating state agency headquarters outside Travis County or adjacent counties. The evaluation considers leasing or purchasing costs, moving expenses, market value of current property, and other relevant factors over a 10-year period. If the commission determines a relocation would save costs, the state agency must move to the new location. The act takes effect September 1, 2025.
