Public Buildings Amendments of 1987

Summary

Public Buildings Amendments of 1987 - Amends the Public Buildings Act of 1959 to require congressional approval for any alteration or acquisition which exceeds the estimated maximum cost of $2,000,000 (currently, $500,000). Authorizes the Administrator of General Services to adjust such cost annually to reflect a percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the preceding calendar year. Requires that any adjustment be reported to specified congressional committees. Revises the definition of "alter" to provide that it does not include reconfiguration of vacant space to house a new tenant. Amends the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 to increase from three years to five years the period for which the Administrator may enter into contracts for the inspection, maintenance, and repair of fixed equipment and building services. Requires the Administrator to submit an explanatory statement to the Congress of the circumstances of each negotiated outlease of buildings if the rental value of the lease exceeds $200,000 per year. Revises current provisions relating to the protection of Federal property by special policemen under the jurisdiction of the Administrator to provide that the Administrator may provide such protection on property owned or occupied by the United States and under the charge and control of the Administrator. Amends the Public Buildings Act of 1959 to authorize the Administrator to relinquish to a State, commonwealth, territory, or U.S. possession all or part of the jurisdiction of the United States over land or interests under the control of the Administrator in such State, commonwealth, territory, or possession.
