Bill Summary

Amends the Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Act. Makes a technical change in a Section concerning the short title of the Act.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Act by adding a new provision that prevents the Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Fund from being appropriated, assigned, or transferred to any other state fund. The bill ensures that money in this specific fund remains dedicated to its original purpose, which is to provide grants to local governments for open space acquisition and development. This protection means that the fund cannot be redirected or used for other state purposes, potentially safeguarding funding for local conservation and open space projects. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, and it appears to be designed to maintain the integrity and intended use of the Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Fund by creating a legal barrier against fund transfers or reallocation.
