Bill > SF1902

This bill provides appropriations (funding) for the Minnesota Zoological Garden from two different sources. Specifically, the bill allocates $17,057,000 from the state's general fund in both fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to the Minnesota Zoological Board, which manages the zoo. Additionally, the bill appropriates $255,000 in each of those same fiscal years from the natural resources fund, which comes from a specific revenue stream defined in Minnesota tax statutes. These appropriations are intended to support the operations and ongoing work of the Minnesota Zoological Garden, ensuring the zoo has the necessary financial resources to maintain its facilities, care for animals, and continue its educational and conservation missions.
