Bill > SF3201

This bill appropriates $4.5 million in fiscal year 2026 from the renewable development account (a special state fund for renewable energy projects) to the Minnesota Department of Commerce, specifically to provide a grant to Youthprise for energy efficiency improvements to the former St. Paul Athletic Club building. The appropriation is a one-time funding allocation that will be available until June 30, 2028, and is being made despite existing restrictions in state law. The energy efficiency improvements specified in the bill include roof repair and replacement to support solar panel installation, LED lighting upgrades, and associated design and engineering costs. By providing this grant, the bill aims to support the renovation and modernization of the building with a focus on reducing energy consumption and improving sustainability.
