AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE FOR THE HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GRANT PROGRAM.

HB 6792 authorizes the state to issue up to $150 million in bonds for fiscal year 2026 and $250 million for fiscal year 2027. The funds would be used by the Department of Administrative Services to provide grants for upgrading heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in public schools. This bill directly affects public school districts by enabling them to access state funding for facility improvements. The key mechanism is the creation of a dedicated grant program funded through state bonds, with no requirement for school districts to contribute additional funds. The purpose is to modernize school building systems, as stated in the bill's official description.
