Wondering If Your Request Is Covered Under Maintenance?

Facilities Management & Development maintains state buildings, grounds, and the campuswide road and utility infrastructure. Repairs to the as-built/as-designed facility are typically covered under maintenance. Maintenance of non-state buildings may be performed on a recharge basis. Any improvements or maintenance of improvements due to change of use are also performed on a recharge basis.
