Bill > SF3374

This bill proposes to increase the annual expenditure limit for free musical entertainment in third-class cities in Minnesota from $3,000 to $10,000. Specifically, the bill amends Minnesota Statutes section 449.08, which allows city councils of third-class cities (typically smaller cities with populations between 1,000 and 10,000 residents) to levy a tax specifically for providing free musical entertainment to the general public. The proposed change would give these cities more financial flexibility to fund public musical events, effectively tripling the previous spending cap. By raising the expenditure limit, the bill aims to support local cultural and community activities by enabling cities to offer more extensive or higher-quality free musical performances for their residents.
