This bill proposes to update current statutes by appropriating $4,300,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 to the Navajo County Community College District specifically for capital improvements at the Northeast Arizona Training Center (NATC), which is operated by Northland Pioneer Community College. The funds are designated for public safety workforce training purposes, including refurbishment of the instructional driving track, expansion of classroom space, and necessary infrastructure improvements related to law enforcement and emergency services training.

Additionally, the bill mandates that by December 31, 2027, the Navajo County Community College District must submit a report detailing expenditures, progress towards compliance with training standards, completed infrastructure improvements, and enrollment and graduation outcomes. Furthermore, the appropriation is exempt from lapsing provisions, ensuring that the allocated funds remain available for their intended purpose.
