The bill proposes an appropriation of $1,382,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development for the purpose of funding an inclusive and accessible playground in Apple Valley. This playground is to be designed in collaboration with community stakeholders to ensure it is safe and accessible for all children, including those with intellectual, developmental, or physical disabilities.
To facilitate this funding, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the amount of $1,382,000, following the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the Minnesota Constitution. The effective date of this section is set for the day following its final enactment.
