This bill mandates the Secretary of the Air Force to undertake planning and design activities for a significant addition to the existing child development center at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas . The total cost for the planning and design phase of this project is authorized not to exceed $6,500,000 , with design activities specifically limited to nine percent of that amount. The design work must ensure seamless integration with current facility systems, including fire alarms, fencing, utility infrastructure, and access control. Furthermore, the design must account for continued occupancy of the center during construction, allow for custom facility extensions, and include the redesign of affected outdoor spaces such as playgrounds. All these requirements are to be carried out using existing funds available for unspecified minor military construction within the Department of the Air Force.
