property, any conditions or limitations which may restrict the use of the property,
and, in the event real property is acquired, the potential liability to the state which
will result from such acquisition. The capital development committee shall review
the reports submitted by the executive director and make recommendations to the
executive director concerning the disposition of the real property. The executive
director shall not acquire, sell, or otherwise dispose of any real property without
considering the recommendations of the capital development committee.
