Bill > SF331

This bill appropriates $7,000,000 in state bond proceeds to the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center (DECC) Authority for various capital improvement projects. The funding will support specific upgrades including elevator and escalator improvements, energy efficiency enhancements, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance modifications, seat and flooring replacements in Symphony Hall, sound wall and room divider replacements in Pioneer and Paulucci Halls, fire and emergency door replacements in Fitzgerald Hall and Amsoil Arena, and parking lot repairs. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds to provide the funding, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota statutes. The bill is exempt from certain standard bonding requirements and will become effective immediately after its final enactment. These improvements aim to modernize and maintain the DECC facility, enhancing its functionality, accessibility, and overall condition.
