Facilities Contracts
Facilities Contracts are specialized and are organized separately from other Minnesota State Colleges and Universities general contracts.
Construction, Maintenance and Consultant Contracts
Nearly all contracts for professional or technical consultants (for example: architects, engineers, owners representatives), maintenance and repair services, and construction contracts are contained within the Project Management Manual (formerly "e-manual") stand-alone website.

Real Estate Contracts
Leases
Lease Agreements are primarily designed for longer-term use and possesion of land or facilities (longer than one year) either on or off-campus. The Office of the Chancellor reviews and approves leases longer than 5 years or more than $100,000. The Board of Trustees must approve all leases valued more than $2 million.

Easement and Licenses
Easements are most often requested by municipal or utilty companies across or on our campuses. An easement or license should be used whenever a person or entity requests the placement of utilities (electrical, gas, stormwater, sewer), road right of way, wetlands, etc. on our campuses. Our standard easement agreement is revocable.
Facility Use Agreements
Other Public-Sector Facilities Agreements
- InterAgency Agreement (between state agencies)
- IntraAgency Agreement (between campuses)
- Joint Powers Agreement (often used with cities, counties and school districts)
