House Bill 3169 authorizes the Health and Human Services Commission, on behalf of the Department of State Health Services or the Department of Aging and Disability Services, as appropriate, and not later than May 31, 2008, to transfer to Texas Panhandle Mental Health Mental Retardation (TPMHMR) three contiguous parcels of real property that comprise the former site of the Amarillo State Center in Potter County, including the improvements affixed to the property and excluding the mineral interest in and under the property. The bill requires that the consideration for the transfer be in the form of an agreement between the parties that requires TPMHMR to use the property to provide community-based mental health and mental retardation services and specifies that if TPMHMR fails to use the property in that manner for more than 180 continuous days, ownership of the property will automatically revert to the previous owner.
