Bill > SF963

This bill provides funding and authorizes bond issuance for a new emergency services center in Paynesville, Minnesota. Specifically, the bill appropriates $3,992,000 from the state bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of public safety, designated for the city of Paynesville to predesign, design, and construct a facility that will house both the city's fire and police departments. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to the $3,992,000 amount, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bill's provisions will take effect immediately after final enactment, enabling the city to move forward with its emergency services center project. This type of legislation is common for local infrastructure improvements, where state bonds are used to finance critical community facilities that might otherwise be difficult for a small city to fund independently.
