The bill authorizes new State Building Authority financed projects, including an $18.3 million project authorization for renovation of the state's fish hatcheries and authorization for community college projects at Bay de Noc Community College, Northwestern Michigan College, and Wayne County Community College. In addition, planning grants are provided for the joint headquarters building for the Departments of State Police and Military Affairs and for a State Justice Complex.
