Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to state government; designating the city of St. Peter as the honorary capital of Minnesota; proposing coding for new law in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 1.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to designate the city of St. Peter as the honorary capital of Minnesota by adding a new section to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 1. While St. Peter will not replace St. Paul as the actual administrative capital of the state, this designation is a symbolic recognition of the city's significance. The bill simply creates a new statutory provision that officially declares St. Peter as having an honorary capital status, which means the city will be given special recognition but will not gain any additional governmental functions or administrative powers typically associated with a state capital. This type of honorary designation is sometimes used to highlight a city's historical, cultural, or community importance within a state.
