This bill amends section 37-342 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, specifically regarding the legislative approval process for incorporating land into the state park system. The bill allows the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission to enter into long-term leases or agreements for the use of real estate for state park purposes. However, it stipulates that any indication of intent to incorporate land or facilities owned by local governmental subdivisions must first receive approval from the Legislature or, if the Legislature is not in session, from the Executive Board of the Legislative Council.

Additionally, when seeking this approval, the commission is required to provide an estimated fiscal impact of the incorporation, detailing how costs will be covered, whether through cash funds or General Fund appropriations. The original section 37-342 is repealed as part of this legislative update.
