This bill tells the Administrator of the General Services Administration (GSA) to make sure public buildings follow the principles in the report "Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture" dated June 1, 1962. It adds a requirement to section 3303 of title 40, United States Code. The bill also requires the GSA to write regulations within 180 days after the bill becomes law to implement that requirement and to set minimum design standards for public buildings. The rulemaking must include notice and an opportunity for public comment under the Administrative Procedure Act (section 553 of title 5).
If the bill becomes law, new or renovated public buildings covered by section 3301(a) would need to be designed to follow the 1962 Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture. The GSA will publish rules that explain the minimum design standards and how the requirement will be applied.
No publicly available information on costs, budget estimates, or funding is included in the bill text or provided metadata. The bill does require the GSA to complete rulemaking within 180 days, but it does not include cost estimates or appropriations.
