Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill authorizes the Building Commission to authorize up to $125,000,000 in general fund supported borrowing to make construction grants to accredited health care teaching institutions located in this state for the purpose of expanding their facilities. The amount of authorized borrowing under this program shall be staggered over a five-year period. Before making a grant to an accredited health care teaching institution, the Building Commission must determine that the institution has secured additional funding from nonstate sources in an amount at least equal to the grant and that the project will alleviate the shortage of trained health care professionals available to provide care to state residents.
