AI Summary
This bill appropriates funds for the planning, designing, environmental studies, site evaluation and selection studies, and permitting related to a new facility for the State Archives, which is a division responsible for collecting, preserving, and making publicly available state records and artifacts of permanent value, dating back to 1790. The bill acknowledges that the current facilities are outdated and at capacity, necessitating a modern, larger space to accommodate current and future collections, conservation efforts, and researcher support. The funds will be managed by the department of accounting and general services and will become effective on July 1, 2050.
