Bill > SF369

This bill appropriates $4,000,000 from state bond proceeds to the Minnesota commissioner of public safety for a grant to the Lakes Area Police Commission, a joint powers law enforcement agency serving Lindstrom, Chisago City, and surrounding areas. The grant is specifically intended to support the predesign, design, construction, furnishing, and equipping of a new regional training and public safety facility. Importantly, the state funding will only be released after the commissioner of management and budget verifies that an equivalent $4,000,000 has been committed from non-state funding sources. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $4,000,000 to fund the project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. The bill becomes effective immediately after final enactment, enabling the Lakes Area Police Commission to move forward with their regional law enforcement facility project.
