Bill > HF1923

This bill provides $12,000,000 in state bond funding specifically for the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board to improve North Commons Park. The funding will support comprehensive renovations to the park, including redesigning and constructing improvements to the community building, which will feature indoor sports, gathering, and arts spaces, as well as renovating sports fields and relocating/renovating the water park. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds to finance these improvements, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. This appropriation is additional to a previous funding allocation from the 2020 Fifth Special Session, indicating ongoing investment in the park's infrastructure. The bill will take effect immediately after its final enactment, allowing the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board to proceed with the North Commons Improvement Project promptly.
