AI Summary
This bill modifies provisions related to the Greater Minnesota Regional Parks and Trails Commission, a body responsible for planning and recommending grants for parks and trails outside of the seven-county metropolitan area. Key changes include updating the process for developing and submitting master plans for regional parks and trails, allowing recommendations for "projects" rather than just "parks and trails," and changing the election cycle for the commission's chair from annual to biennial. Additionally, the bill extends the availability of previously appropriated funds for several specific park and trail projects in various counties and the city of Sandstone, allowing these grants to be used for a longer period. Finally, it repeals existing sections of law concerning the initial appointments and first meeting of the commission.
