In developing the plan, DGS shall (i) minimize the impact to the state rent plan by assigning space operated by DGS first, prior to using other state spaces, (ii) minimize the impact to the parking fund by maintaining agencies in downtown Richmond and assigning parking in state parking facilities to the extent practicable, and (iii) provide recommendations to the Six-Year Capital Outlay Plan Advisory Committee on any necessary rent plan changes or parking fee modifications to ensure sufficient funds for the operation of state buildings and parking facilities until the new state agency office building is constructed.
