This bill provides funding and authorizes bond issuance for capital improvements at the Minnesota Emergency Response and Industrial Training (MERIT) Center in Marshall, Minnesota. Specifically, the bill appropriates $5,143,000 from the state bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of public safety for a grant to the city of Marshall. The funding will be used to design, construct, furnish, and equip Phase 3 of the MERIT Center's Master Development Plan, which includes a 50-yard and 300-yard firearms range, firearms support buildings, and a live burn buildout structure. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $5,143,000 to fund these improvements, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. The bill will take effect the day after final enactment, enabling the city of Marshall to proceed with these planned infrastructure and training facility upgrades for emergency response and industrial training purposes.
