Bill > SF1082

This bill modifies how revenues from a specific chapter of Minnesota statutes are allocated, specifically focusing on deposits into the resource management account within the environmental fund. Currently, 70% of these revenues are credited to the environmental fund, with the remainder going to the general fund. The bill introduces a gradual increase in the percentage of funds allocated to the resource management account: in fiscal year 2026, seven percent will be deposited; in fiscal year 2027, 20 percent will be deposited; and from fiscal year 2028 onward, 30 percent will be deposited. These funds are specifically appropriated to the Commissioner of the Pollution Control Agency for distribution to counties for environmental management purposes. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2025, and represent a structured approach to incrementally increasing financial support for resource management at the county level. By phasing in these increases, the bill ensures a predictable and manageable transition in funding allocation.
