An Act to form a special commission to conduct an audit on all abandoned state properties and determine the feasibility of repurposing them into drug addiction treatment facilities

This bill establishes a special commission to audit all abandoned state properties and assess whether they could be repurposed as drug addiction treatment facilities. The commission will hold public hearings and submit annual reports by June 30 to the governor and legislature, including feasibility findings and draft legislation for any recommended changes. It directly affects abandoned state properties and the process for evaluating their potential use in addressing substance use disorders. The bill creates a structured review process but does not authorize immediate repurposing or funding for treatment facilities.
