Established to enact laws, establish rules, and govern the conduct, rights, and duties of citizens, the NCGA plays a vital role in shaping the state’s legal and regulatory framework. The Legislative Complex, constructed in 1963 and distinguished by its unique architecture, serves as the central hub where legislative business is conducted. This facility houses the Legislative Building and the Legislative Office Building, which require meticulous maintenance to uphold their distinguished appearance and functionality. The Facility Maintenance department is essential in preserving the integrity and cleanliness of these government buildings.
