about the commission
The State Properties Commission (SPC) was created in 1964, under Governor Carl Sanders, to aid the State of Georgia with acquiring and disposing of State-owned real property and real property interests.
With the creation of the State Property Officer under Governor Sonny Perdue, as well as legislation through the 2005 Georgia General Assembly that realigned the management of the State's capital assets, the State Properties Commission was designated as Georgia's real estate portfolio manager. As such, the Commission's primary focus is to provide accountability in the stewardship of the State's Real Property Assets for the citizens of Georgia.
Since 2005, SPC is in charge of increasing the utilization and efficiency of workplace environments, executing lease and land transactions on behalf of State agencies, and maximizing the value of the State's assets.

Marty Smith State Property Officer Executive Director, State Properties Commission
As the State's real estate portfolio manager, our charge is to find ways to derive the most value out of our assets. In Fiscal Year 2019, the State Properties Commission planted the foundation for investments decades into the future.
The Commission successfully negotiated a new agreement with CSX Corporation authorizing their continued use of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, valued at $1.2 billion over a 50-year lease period, starting January 1, 2020. Railroads are a major part of Georgia's freight infrastructure, and the Port of Savannah and the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport both depend on Georgia's railroads to ship goods into the interior of the country. CSX's operation of the Western & Atlantic Railroad generate $1.1 billion in public benefits and supports approximately 1,800 jobs yearly. We were also proud to have supported the efforts to revitalize the area where Atlanta was born as the terminus of the Western & Atlantic railroad line. The Commission successfully marketed and sold a 9.3-acre tract in Atlanta's Gulch area to developer CIM Group, which is strategically important to the $5 billion Centennial Yards project.
Our continuous improvement means agencies can rest assured that the Commission is prepared to support their growth through unmatched expertise and customer service. The Governor's and the Legislature's support of multi-year contracting allows the agencies to receive the best market rental rates in fact, the State avoided over $54 million in costs during this fiscal year.
Recent hurricane activity has had a devasting effect on Georgia's prized beaches; in order to protect and prevent future damage to coastal structure, the Commission granted mineral leases at both Sea Island and Tybee Island for beach nourishments. Beach nourishment replaces sand that is lost through erosion. By creating a wider beach with new sand, it becomes possible to prevent future damage to coastal structures. The new sand interacts with the waves in the surf zone to reduce the impact of very high tides and storm surges.
Through Governor Kemp's strong leadership, we are leading our industry through innovation and will continue to make significant strides to support Georgia's growth for years to come.

The State Properties Commission is organized in four distinct divisions: Space Management, Asset Management, Land, and Leasing.
Space Management Division
Space Management maximizes the utilization of space to create efficient work environments. SPC has developed space standards based on industry and public sector criteria to accomplish the following objectives:
Increase occupancy
Decrease vacancy
Improve the value of State owned and leased space
Provide the most cost-efficient work space for State entities
Asset Management Division
The strategic function that manages the State's real estate assets to provide the maximum value to the State. The Asset Management Division (AM) is responsible for collaborating with agencies to develop 4-year real property plans based on staff projections, budget, existing locations and operational plans. Additionally, AM maintains the State's real property database (BLLIP); provides project management on select SPC deals and evaluates space utilization of leased and owned space.
Land Division
All acquisitions or dispositions of the State's real property must come through SPC. The Commission assures that all acquisitions and dispositions of land in the State's name meet the legal, policy, and process requirements of the State. Properties owned by the Board of Regents are excluded. Acquisitions into the State include fee simple interests, conservation easements, access and other easements, and ground leases. Dispositions from the State include temporary revocable licenses, permanent easements, short or long-term ground leases and fee simple conveyances.
Leasing Division
SPC offers an array of leasing services to State entities in commercial or state-owned leased space. Services range from locating and procuring new lease locations to renewing or renegotiating existing agreements, as well as managing the State's lease inventory. The Division's responsibilities and functions include leasing assistance to State entities in both State and commercially owned facilities.

Consolidation and Co-location with No Additional Operating Expense Pass Throughs
The Opportunity
For over a decade, Child Support Services and Aging Services have occupied multiple separate administrative offices and training spaces. Co-locating these divisions will maximize space utilization while addressing the needs for additional operational space and staff growth. Through SPC's competitive RFP process, Valdosta Mall presented a cost effective option that satisfies the requirement from both an economic and size perspective. This former Sears box store will be converted into office space.
The Process
Due to the lack of available office product in the city of Valdosta, the only other proposals received were either too small, or required new construction, which resulted in unfavorable (over budget) economics. The decision to relocate to Valdosta Mall was in part due to the convenient and well-known location, as well as the proposed renovation of former Sears box into brand new office space. This newly converted space will allow the agency to proactively plan its space configuration. This results in increased efficiencies, lower costs, and greater product quality. The result of this proposed lease will be a fully functional, modern office space for the two divisions, allowing them to share common areas, whilst maintaining autonomy from one another in client-facing capacities.

TCSG wishes to continue their tenancy as the location serves them well and the property is well maintained. TSCG has requested SPC enter into a new lease on their behalf which would allow for improvements to the premises, including an expansion of 4,791 rsf in order for TCSG to occupy the entire building. Entering into a twelve-and-a-half-year lease will enable the landlord to complete all necessary tenant improvements to update and expand the premises.

Expansion and Lease Negotiation
Expansion with Concessions and Tenant Improvements
The Opportunity
DOR currently occupies 5,094 rsf of office space at 1105-D West Broad Avenue in Albany, GA. DOR needs to expand their office space to accommodate increased employee headcount and customer foot traffic, to expand the Alcohol and Tobacco unit and to add a regional training facility. The current landlord cannot provide expansion space for the agency. In January, 2018, SPC advertised a Request for Proposal (RFP) to relocate DOR. Three (3) proposals were received, and the selection committee visited the properties in February, 2018. In April, 2018, the selection committee selected Indusa Beverage, Inc. as the apparent awardee.
The Process
Due to the nature of the Albany market, most existing office spaces in the market are in old buildings that have not been renovated to modern standards. The Indusa Beverage, Inc. building is already slated for conversion to office, and the Landlord has already underwritten the majority of the shell conversion as part of its redevelopment plan for the property. Other existing product in the market would require significantly more improvement to meet minimum shell requirements for the State. The result of this proposed lease will be a fully functional, modern office space for the agency in a well located building that is easily accessed by constituents and agency personnel.

A new, 50-year lease agreement with CSX for the continued use of the state-owned Western & Atlantic railroad continues to derive significant economic impact for the State of Georgia.
The lease will generate $1.2 billion to the State Treasury, which is $509 million more than the previous leasing agreement.
2019 SPOTLIGHT
the western & atlantic railROAD
At approximately 1,550 acres and 137.33 miles, the Western & Atlantic Railroad was completed in 1850 and runs through several counties in Georgia and even enters Hamilton County, Tennessee. The Southeastern Terminus of the Western & Atlantic Railroad (W&A) later led to the creation of Atlanta. Since then, the W&A has been a tremendous aid to the economic growth of the State and its position as the hub of the South.
With authorization and support of the Georgia General Assembly through Act 71 (Senate Resolution 228) in 2017, the State Properties Commission negotiated with CSX Corporation (CSX), a new lease agreement permitting their continued use of the W&A. The original lease executed in 1969 and later amended in 1986 will be replaced with a new lease for 50 years beginning January 1, 2020.
CSX's operation of the W&A generates an additional $1.1 billion (NPV) in public benefits and supports approximately
1,800 jobs yearly. Operation of the line also diverts 362,053 cargo trucks off Georgia's interstates yearly--which equates to almost 1,000 cargo trucks daily.
The value of the lease payments to the State of Georgia total approximately $1.2 billion over a 50-year lease period. This is an increase of $509 million over the current lease agreement.
In addition to monetary consideration, CSX will also convey a 50-year lease to the Georgia Department of Transportation, allowing GDOT to ensure existing fiber lines running from the Traffic Management Center to Highway 75/85 and I-20 remain undisturbed. "The successful renegotiation of this long-term lease represents multiple benefits for the residents of Georgia," said Carol Comer, Director of the Division of Intermodal for the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT). "In addition to the long-term positive fiscal impact this lease brings, it also allows us to extend our fiber optic cable network, helping the Department to better manage our transportation network overall."
For most Georgians, the most exciting benefit of the new lease is the conveyance of 2.3 miles of unused rail to extend the Silver Comet Trail. The Silver Comet Trail is a 61-mile-long (non-motorized) trail in northwest Metro Atlanta. "This acquisition will allow for growth of the Silver Comet Trail and will offer new opportunities for recreation in Georgia," said Mark Williams, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. "Runners, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds will now have more access to our State's natural beauty and one of-a-kind attractions that make Georgia the best place in the country for outdoor recreation."
