Bill > SF788

This bill modifies a previous appropriation for the MERIT (Minnesota Emergency Response and Industrial Training) Center in the city of Marshall, Minnesota. The bill changes the specific details of a previously approved $2,250,000 grant to the city. Originally, the grant was for general improvements, but now it specifically authorizes funding for designing, constructing, furnishing, and equipping a 50-yard and 300-yard firearms range and associated support buildings, which are part of Phase 3 of the center's Master Development Plan. The bill removes language about a previously mentioned live-burn buildout structure. The modification becomes effective immediately after the bill is enacted, which means it will take effect the day after it is signed into law. This appears to be a technical adjustment to clarify the precise intended use of the previously allocated capital investment funds for the MERIT Training Center.
