The Office of Management and Enterprise Services shall make or
cause to be made a full and complete inventory and appraisal of the
property described in Section 324 of this title.  Except for lands
owned by the Department of Transportation, the Office may offer for
sale to the highest bidder at public sale all of the lots, blocks,
or acreage tracts of "Capitol Building Lands" that are not used by
the state and which, in the judgment of the Office, will not be
required for future use by the state.  The property shall be offered
for sale in separate lots or tracts, for cash, to the highest
bidder.  The sale shall be at public auction or under sealed bids
whichever the Office may determine to be most advantageous.  The
sale shall be advertised in a newspaper of general circulation in
Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, for not less than thirty (30) days prior
to the date of sale.  The notice shall contain an accurate
description of all the property to be sold and terms and conditions
of the sale.
The lands so offered for sale shall be subject to a reservation
by this state in one-half (1/2) of all the mineral rights therein.
If royalties are not paid to the state from any of the above-

described lots or tracts of land, the sale of such properties shall
be made subject to a reservation by this state of all of the mineral
rights therein under the lots or tracts.  The Office of Management
and Enterprise Services shall reserve the right to refuse any and
all bids for the property.  No sale of any portion of the land shall
be confirmed at a price less than ninety percent (90%) of the
appraised value.  All sales shall be approved by the Governor.
