Approve the indication of intent by the Game and Parks Commission to incorporate Camp Augustine into the state park system
This legislative resolution (LR 17) approves the Game and Parks Commission's intent to incorporate Camp Augustine - a 156-acre campground owned by the city of Grand Island - into Nebraska's state park system, specifically alongside Mormon Island State Recreation Area. It does not create new park facilities but authorizes the Commission to pursue this partnership with Grand Island, subject to cost approval through the normal budget process. The resolution requires that any costs for incorporation be covered by separate legislative budget approvals, not existing funds. This is a procedural step required by state law before the Commission can move forward with the partnership.
