AN ACT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS - DIVISION OF CORRECTION REAPPROPRIATION.
HB 1093 reappropriates specific funds to the Arkansas Department of Corrections for use starting July 1, 2026, covering prison expansion, facility repairs, and various operational projects. The bill allocates money for specific initiatives such as a water treatment plant replacement, security camera installation, and flooring work at designated units. A key provision restricts funds designated for prison expansion from being used to build a facility in Franklin County, while allowing their use for other capacity increases and recidivism programs. The legislation also includes standard financial controls to ensure contracts do not exceed available funds and that these capital funds are not mixed with general operating budgets.
