building, the following actions are hereby authorized:
1.  The Oklahoma Capitol Improvement Authority shall provide the
funding for the construction of an office building in Carter County
to house state agencies located in that county, and may hold title
to or a leasehold interest in the facilities until such time as the
indebtedness created pursuant to this section shall be retired or
defeased and shall lease such facilities to the Office of Management
and Enterprise Services, with the Department of Human Services as
the lead tenant.  Upon the retirement of the indebtedness created
pursuant to this section, the title to the land and improvements
thereon shall be transferred from the Oklahoma Capitol Improvement
Authority to the Office of Management and Enterprise Services;
2.  For the purpose of paying the costs of construction
authorized by this section, the Authority is hereby authorized to

from the leasing of the building and, in anticipation of collection
of such income and revenues, to issue negotiable or competitive
bonds not to exceed the sum of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000.00).
The maximum term for such bonds shall be twenty (20) years.  It is
the intent of the Legislature to appropriate to the respective
agencies of the state who are tenants of the office building

sufficient monies to make rental payments to the Authority for
purposes of retiring the debt created pursuant to this section.
