Sec. 5. The commission is hereby authorized to acquire or select a site located in the State of Indiana and construct and erect thereon a building or buildings to be used by the Law Enforcement Training Board created by IC 5-2-1 for a Law Enforcement Academy. The site so selected may be on land already owned by the state, or if no such site is deemed by the commission suitable or available, the commission may acquire a site either by purchase, gift or condemnation as hereinafter provided. If a site of land already owned by the state is selected, the commission shall have authority, if necessary, to clear and prepare such site for the construction and erection thereon of such building or buildings. In addition to constructing such building or buildings, the commission shall also install therein any and all equipment, appurtenances and paraphernalia which may be necessary to constitute a fully equipped and modern law enforcement academy. If found necessary, the commission shall also improve, landscape, embellish and beautify such grounds, and lay out and install such walks, drives, fences and other necessary appurtenances as may be deemed essential to produce an integrated and artistic setting. Except as herein otherwise provided, the location and area of the lands acquired and the character of the buildings, structures, embellishments, ornamentation, equipment and other appurtenances therein or thereon shall be determined by the commission.
