SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background: FASTA created the PBRB as an independent Board to 
identify opportunities for the Federal government to significantly 
reduce its inventory of civilian real property and thereby reduce 
costs. The Board is directed, within 6 months of its formation, to 
recommend to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) the sale of not 
fewer than five properties not on the list of surplus or excess with a 
fair market value of not less than $500 million and not more than $750 
million. In two subsequent rounds over a five-year period, the Board is 
responsible for making recommendations for other sales, consolidations, 
property disposals or redevelopment of up to $7.25 billion.
    Meeting: The format for the meeting will be panel discussions with 
appropriate time allowed for Q&A. Each panel will be composed of 
invited representatives for that specific area. The three proposed 
panels are:
     Executive Branch--this panel will include representatives 
from the Federal Property Council and the GSA Public Buildings Service. 
The purpose will be to provide a prospective on background of the 
legislation (FASTA) and the current status of the database.
     Congressional panel--this panel will discuss background 
and importance of legislation.
     Former RTC officials panel--this panel will discuss the 
RTC's approach to the large number of properties and methods of 
increasing the valuation for sale.
    Portions of the meeting will be held in Executive Session if the 
Board is considering issues involving classified or proprietary 
information.
    Registration: To register for this meeting, please email Ira Holmes 
at [email protected]. Those wishing to participate as panelists are 
invited to contact the PBRB by June 10th, 2019. The PBRB especially 
invites former officials from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) to 
participate on the panel to provide their insight. Individuals wishing 
to attend who require special assistance should contact Ira Holmes at 
least 72 hours prior to the event.
