Bill > HF146

This bill addresses a specific financial matter for the city of Stewart, Minnesota, by providing aid penalty forgiveness and ensuring the city receives a withheld aid payment. Under current law, the city had its aid payment for calendar year 2023 withheld due to not submitting its annual financial reporting form on time. The bill allows the city to receive its $87,501.50 aid payment if the state auditor certifies that the city submits its 2022 annual financial reporting form by June 1, 2025. The commissioner of revenue is required to make the payment by June 30, 2025, and the necessary funds will be appropriated from the general fund for fiscal year 2025. This is a one-time appropriation designed to help the city of Stewart resolve its reporting issue and receive its expected local government aid. The bill becomes effective immediately after it is enacted.
