Bill > HB1520

This bill authorizes the North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services to transfer approximately 25.2 acres of land located near the North Dakota State Hospital in Jamestown to the Office of the Adjutant General. The purpose of this land transfer is to enable the construction of a new training and storage facility. The bill specifically exempts this transfer from two existing statutory sections (54-01-05.2 and 54-01-05.5) that would typically govern such property transfers. Additionally, the bill is declared an emergency measure, which means it would take effect immediately upon being signed into law, bypassing the usual waiting period for new legislation. The bill was passed with overwhelming support in both the House of Representatives (91 yeas, 0 nays) and the Senate (47 yeas, 0 nays), indicating broad legislative agreement on the land transfer's importance.
