A bill for an act relating to the department of administrative services’ historical resource research center in Iowa City, and including effective date provisions.
SF 2293 removes the requirement for Iowa's Department of Administrative Services to maintain a historical resource research center in Iowa City. The bill amends state code to eliminate the mandate that previously required the department to operate research centers in both Des Moines and Iowa City. This change directly affects the department's administrative obligations and Iowa City's access to state historical resources. The bill takes immediate effect upon enactment, as specified in its effective date provision.
