17     "Sec. ___.  SPLIT-SENTENCING PILOT PROJECT.
18     1.  The general assembly finds that the
19   implementation of a split-sentencing pilot project
20   within this state could serve as a test for a fair and
21   flexible method of dispensing criminal justice which
22   provides for an incremental approach to the imposition
23   of aggravated misdemeanor and felony criminal
24   sentences and may help to reduce the current prison
25   overcrowding problems while protecting the public
26   safety.  A split-sentencing pilot project is therefore
27   established in a judicial district to be determined by
28   the supreme court.  The judicial district shall be
29   selected based on the availability of jail space
30   within the judicial district, and whether the judicial
31   district in consultation with the county board or
32   boards of supervisors and the sheriff or sheriffs
33   desires to participate in the project.
34   Notwithstanding any other contrary provision of law,
35   subsection 2 of this section shall apply within and
36   only within the judicial district which is selected to
37   participate in this pilot project from the date of the
38   enactment of this Act through June 30, 1996.
39     2.  By record entry at the time of or after
40   sentencing for an aggravated misdemeanor or a felony,
41   other than a class "A" felony, the court may sentence
