The bill proposes an appropriation of $500,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development for the purpose of creating an inclusive and accessible playground in Commons Park, Fridley. 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 fund this initiative, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the amount of $500,000, following the guidelines set forth in Minnesota Statutes and the Minnesota Constitution. The provisions of this bill will take effect the day after it is enacted.
