certificate in writing of his determination that certain real property

owned by the state and devoted to the use of the organized militia of

the state is no longer needed or adapted for such use and consenting

that the same be sold or exchanged by the commissioner pursuant to the

provisions of this section, the commission, if such certificate and

consent be approved by the director of the budget and be accompanied by,

services from moneys appropriated to said office in the first instance

for the administration, management, utilization and disposition of real

property of the state and any rights or interests therein, and any

balance of such moneys remaining after repayment of the first instance

expenditures shall be paid into the state treasury through the office

of general services to the credit of the capital projects fund
