save the government billions of dollars.
The White House has released a massive database of all federal
properties deemed “excess” and no longer needed by the government.
There are more than 105 in Ohio, including in the Dayton region.
The White House Statement:
The Federal Government is the biggest property owner in the U.S., and
billions of taxpayer dollars are wasted each year on government
properties that are no longer needed. The President has proposed a
Civilian Property Realignment Board to help the Federal Government cut
through red tape and politics to sell or get rid of property it no
longer needs, saving taxpayers $15 billion over the first three years
after the Board is fully up and running.
There are roughly 14,000 buildings and structures currently designated
as excess and thousands of others that are underutilized. These
properties range from sheds to underutilized office buildings and empty
warehouses.
Search the database of 12,218 properties by federal agency, state and
city to find detailed information regarding specific properties.
Editor’s Note: Often there are several properties or structures listed
for a single address. Select View Details for information on each
entry. All data was provided by the White House.
