(3)
The board may acquire by lease, purchase, gift or condemnation, all property
necessary or suitable for establishing the home, and may erect, equip, operate,
and maintain such suitable buildings as may be necessary for the care,
custody, maintenance, education, and training of the children committed to it.
The board shall provide such buildings, grounds, equipment and units, in the
county in which the board is created.
When the property of any other board or institution within the county is
conveyed to the board, and such property is owned, maintained or controlled in
whole or in part by any city or division or district in the city, the conveyance
shall first be authorized by the legislative body or other city board of such city
or division or district; and when the property is owned, maintained or controlled
in whole or in part by the county, the conveyance shall first be authorized by
the fiscal court of the county. In either case, the governing body of the
institution must also authorize and direct the conveyance to be made. Where
any such conveyance is made to the board, the board shall receive and
maintain in the home, all children who, at the time of the conveyance, are in the
care and custody of the institution whose property is so conveyed.
The board shall not be compelled to accept any conveyance which the board
finds unsuited for the purposes of this chapter, or the improvement of which
would entail an injudicious expenditure.
