Establishes a $50,000 threshold for state-owned building disposals: buildings valued below $50,000 may be sold or demolished by the commissioner without legislative approval, while disposals of buildings valued at $50,000 or more require approval from the Senate Finance Committee chair and House Ways and Means Committee chair.

Requires proceeds from building sales to be deposited in the account from which the original appropriation to acquire or construct the building was made, or in the general fund if that account cannot be identified or has been terminated.

Modifies energy improvement financing agreements to require the financing term on individual projects be less than the average expected useful life of the energy-saving measures implemented, and requires participating agencies to certify they will budget sufficient funds for rent payments.

Clarifies that the Commissioner of Management and Budget Administration (not Commissioner of Management and Budget alone) represents the state in exercising rights and duties of membership in the Workers' Compensation Reinsurance Association and that reinsurance premium appropriations flow to this commissioner.

Specifies that energy improvement projects must meet criteria including technical and economic feasibility, positive cash flow for efficiency improvements, and exploration of conservation investment plan opportunities with utilities.
