SCR 4024 North Dakota Senate · 69th Legislative Assembly (2025-26)

A concurrent resolution directing the Legislative Management to consider studying using dedicated funds in the Capitol building fund to build a legislative office building.

SCR 4024 is a concurrent resolution directing North Dakota's Legislative Management to study using existing funds from the Capitol building fund to construct a new legislative office building. It addresses current facility issues including inadequate meeting spaces, unsafe parking conditions, and the lack of dedicated work areas for legislators and staff. The resolution specifies the study should examine building a legislative office building on Capitol grounds, potentially incorporating modern committee rooms and office space, while utilizing the fund's remaining balance (over $5 million) that has been partially used for other purposes. This resolution does not authorize construction but requires Legislative Management to report findings and any needed legislation to the next legislative session.
