Summary

Revokes EOs 12072 & 13006, ending federal priority for locating agencies in urban central business districts & historic properties. Directs GSA to change rules. Aims for cost-effective locations across urban, suburban, rural areas. This order dismantles federal policies favoring urban central business districts and historic properties for agency location. It shifts focus to cost savings and geographic reach (urban, suburban, rural). While potentially reducing real estate costs, it could hinder urban revitalization and historic preservation efforts tied to federal presence.
