Sacramento Region State Office Planning Study

This Planning Study evaluates the 40-year projected state office occupancy needs in the Sacramento region, presents a comprehensive overview of future development patterns in this region, and provides an analysis matrix to identify prospective development areas that could accommodate a significant concentration of State programs in the future. 

It will be used as a tool for developing the state of California's future building and facility needs throughout the region.  The DGS intends to update this working document as conditions change to ensure future strategies regarding long-range office space plans are based on current information.

The December 2008 Sacramento Region State Office Planning Study (Planning Study), was prepared for the state of California, Department of General Services (DGS), Real Estate Services Division, by the San Francisco-based consultant, Hellmuth, Obata + Kassabaum (aka HOK), and their consultant team.
