Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to capital investment; appropriating money for a centralized public safety center in the city of New Prague; authorizing the sale and issuance of state bonds.

AI Summary

This bill provides $11,500,000 in state bond funding to the city of New Prague for constructing and expanding an existing fire hall into a centralized public safety center that will serve the city and surrounding communities. The funding will be used to construct, renovate, furnish, and equip the facility to support fire, police, and ambulance services. Importantly, the state funding is contingent upon the city first securing an equivalent $11,500,000 in funding from non-state sources, which ensures the city has a significant financial commitment to the project. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds to provide the funding, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. The bill becomes effective immediately after its final enactment, allowing the city to proceed with its public safety center expansion project once the funding requirements are met.
