Bill > SF3455

This bill provides a $25 million state bond appropriation to the city of St. Paul specifically for renovating the Science Museum of Minnesota. The funding will be used to predesign, design, construct, furnish, and equip the museum's renovation project. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds to provide the necessary funding, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. The bonds will be issued according to existing state constitutional and statutory guidelines for bond issuance, with the specific section becoming effective immediately after the bill is enacted. This type of legislation is typical for capital investment projects where the state provides financial support for significant cultural or educational infrastructure improvements through a bonding mechanism.
