Bill > HF407

This bill provides a $1,500,000 appropriation from the Minnesota state general fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development specifically for the Westonka Community Food Shelf. The funding is designated to support the food shelf's efforts to predesign, design, construct, furnish, and equip a new facility. The appropriation will be available until the project is completed or abandoned, following the guidelines outlined in Minnesota Statutes, section 16A.642. The bill's effective date is the day after it receives final legislative enactment, which means the funding will become available immediately after the bill is signed into law. This appropriation appears to be aimed at helping the Westonka Community Food Shelf expand or replace its current facility, potentially improving its capacity to serve local community members in need of food assistance.
