Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

New housing help for foster youth

The state provides $250,000 from the Progressing Rural Economic Prosperity Fund to the Department of Commerce. Commerce must fund an economic development group with an office in a central Oklahoma town of 35,000 people or fewer (per the latest federal census). The group must build and run a transitional living facility for youth aging out of foster care and for low‑income people. Funds are available now because the act takes effect upon approval.

Energy upgrades at small Western Oklahoma campus

The state provides $1.75 million from the Progressing Rural Economic Prosperity Fund to the Department of Commerce. The funds support energy‑efficiency projects at one Western Oklahoma university campus with fewer than 1,100 students. The upgrades aim to cut campus energy use and costs. Funds are available now because the act takes effect upon approval.

Upgrades at central state fairgrounds

The state provides $2 million from the Progressing Rural Economic Prosperity Fund to the Department of Commerce. The money pays for upgrades at a central Oklahoma site where statewide “state fair” events occur. Work can include arena connectors, electrical systems, and facilities tied to livestock events. Funds are available now because the act takes effect upon approval.
