Bill > SF790

This bill appropriates $5,143,000 in state bond proceeds to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety for a grant to the city of Marshall to support capital improvements at the Minnesota Emergency Response and Industrial Training (MERIT) Center. Specifically, the funding will be used to design, construct, furnish, and equip Phase 3 of the Center's Master Development Plan, which includes building a 50-yard and 300-yard firearms range, constructing firearms support buildings, and developing a live burn buildout structure. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $5,143,000 to finance these improvements, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bill would become effective immediately after its final enactment, enabling the city of Marshall to proceed with these infrastructure upgrades to the MERIT Center, which appears to be a facility used for emergency response training and industrial safety purposes.
