A. The Oklahoma Capitol Improvement Authority may provide for the funding for equipment and furnishings for properties and facilities located in the Food Processing Center located at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and may hold title to or a leasehold interest in the equipment and furnishings until such time as the indebtedness created pursuant to this section shall be retired or defeased.
