Establishes a grant program for demolishing vacant school buildings in Iowa.

The bill creates a vacant school building demolition grant program administered by the economic development authority. It establishes a fund for grants to demolish vacant school buildings that became vacant before January 1, 2021, and were previously used as school attendance centers or administration buildings. Grants prioritize applicants from political subdivisions with populations under 2,500. The authority must coordinate with applicants to develop a plan for the property's future use and ensure it aligns with the property's surroundings.
