Bill > HF215

This bill provides a $24,796,000 appropriation from state bond proceeds to the commissioner of employment and economic development for a grant to the city of Stillwater to support the renovation and expansion of the St. Croix Valley Recreation Center. The funding will specifically cover improvements such as renovating locker rooms, lobby spaces, and common areas, implementing stormwater and parking improvements, and adding a regional curling center facility. To finance this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to the appropriated amount, following procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bill specifies that these bonds will be sold according to standard state bonding practices, and the section becomes effective immediately after final enactment. This legislation represents a significant capital investment in local recreational infrastructure, aimed at enhancing community facilities and potentially supporting regional sports and recreational activities.
