13.48 (35) DEBT INCREASE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A MILWAUKEE CHILDREN'S VILLAGE. (a) The legislature finds and determines that providing good substitute parental care for children in foster care and helping those children grow up to be self-sufficient and productive adults are statewide responsibilities of statewide dimension. The legislature also finds and determines that the children of the city of Milwaukee are disproportionately represented in the state's foster care system and that, because those youth are so disproportionately represented, the state has a specific concern in providing good substitute parental care for those children and in helping those children grow up to be self-sufficient and productive adults. In addition, the legislature finds and determines that the children's village model of substitute care provided by SOS Children's Villages provides good substitute parental care for children and helps children grow up to be self-sufficient and productive adults by keeping together sibling groups that would otherwise be separated, providing one foster home for a child until the child is reunified with his or her family or achieves some other permanent placement, providing professionally trained caregivers for children, especially children with special needs, and providing not just a home but an entire community in which a child may grow. The legislature, therefore, finds and determines that assisting SOS Children's Villages of Wisconsin -- Milwaukee Chapter in the construction of a children's village will have a direct and immediate effect on that specific statewide concern and on those state responsibilities of statewide dimension.

(b) The building commission may authorize up to $550,000 in general fund supported borrowing to aid in the construction of a children's village by SOS Children's Villages of Wisconsin -- Milwaukee Chapter at a location on the near north side in the city of Milwaukee.

Before approving any state funding commitment for the children's village, the building commission shall determine that SOS Children's Villages of Wisconsin -- Milwaukee Chapter has secured additional funding at least equal to $3,270,000 from nonstate donations for the purpose of constructing the children's village.

(c) If the building commission authorizes a grant to SOS Children's Villages of Wisconsin -- Milwaukee Chapter under par. (b) and if, for any reason, the facility that is constructed with funds from the grant is not used as a children's village, the state shall retain an ownership interest in the facility equal to the amount of the state's grant.".
