The gifts of money, which are donated to contract, construct, and maintain the monument, shall be placed in a special nonlapsing account in the state treasury, to be expended for the purposes of the New Hampshire recovery monument. Any money remaining in the special account after construction of the monument is completed shall be used for the care, maintenance, repair, and additions to the monument. Any funds left in the special account after annual care, maintenance, and repair of the monument shall be deposited in the alcohol abuse prevention treatment fund under N.H. Rev. Stat. § 176-A:1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the commission may expend the money raised or accepted as a gift without the approval of governor and council, to contract for the construction and perpetual maintenance of the monument.
