Bill > HF1034

This bill clarifies grant expenditures for an aeronautics and commercial over-the-road technical pilot program at Independent School District No. 482 in Little Falls, Minnesota. The bill provides $450,000 in funding for the 2024 fiscal year to support the district's technical program, which can be used for equipment, staffing, travel, and contracted services. The bill adds a new requirement that the district's February 1, 2027 report to legislative committees must describe how early program expenditures successfully delivered the technical program to students. Additionally, the bill retroactively validates program expenditures made between May 24, 2023, and the official grant award date as eligible and reimbursable. The appropriation is available until June 30, 2026, and is considered a one-time funding allocation. The bill is effective retroactively from May 24, 2023, ensuring that the district's initial program investments are recognized and supported financially.
