Bill > HF746

This bill proposes to rename the Iowa law enforcement academy to the Gil Hansen law enforcement academy. Specifically, the bill amends two sections of the Iowa Code to add the alternative name "Gil Hansen law enforcement academy" in two key places: first, in the definition of "Academy" in Section 80B.3, and second, by adding a provision in Section 80B.4 that explicitly authorizes the director of the academy to use the new name in public communications, signage, and other forms of communication. The bill does not change the academy's fundamental characteristics or location at Camp Dodge, but simply provides an additional name that can be used alongside the original name. The bill appears to be honoring someone named Gil Hansen, though the specific reason for the namesake is not provided in the legislative text.
