Legislative Policy Committee thereof, by which State
departments, boards, commissions, institutions, or other
agencies may enter into land, building, or facility space

Works approval, provided (i) that the subject matter of each
lease or lease renewal falls within an expenditure or use
classification established for this purpose by the Board of
Public Works, (ii) that the annual dollar value of each
lease or lease renewal is less than a monetary threshold
established for the applicable expenditure or use
