2018 Oklahoma Statutes
Title 10A. Children and Juvenile Code
§10A-2-7-619. Public/private partnership - Authority to sell OJA campus property.
If the best-value option for the state is to enter into an agreement with the Commissioners of the Land Office (CLO) and a public/private partnership for the development of the designated campus then the Office of Juvenile Affairs (OJA) is authorized to sell a to-be-determined amount of property on the OJA campus of the Central Oklahoma Juvenile Center to the CLO. The amount of property to be transferred will be determined by the footprint of the proposed construction/refurbishment. In exchange for the property, OJA will receive from the CLO fair market value for the land. The CLO, on behalf of OJA, will negotiate a public/private partnership for the construction of juvenile justice assets. The CLO will develop a Request For Proposal (RFP) to select a private development company to construct the necessary facilities for the operation of a juvenile justice secure care facility. OMES will negotiate on behalf of OJA the necessary lease and sublease terms for the continued operation of the facility for up to twenty-five (25) years. It is the intent of the Legislature to make appropriations as required in order for the Office of Juvenile Affairs to make required lease and sublease payments related to real property or improvements or both, as provided by this act.
