The bill proposes an appropriation of $25,737,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of public safety for the purpose of designing, constructing, furnishing, and equipping a new nonsecure juvenile detention facility in Moorhead, Clay County. This funding aims to enhance the juvenile justice system by providing a dedicated facility that meets the needs of youth in the area.
To finance this appropriation, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the same amount. The bond issuance will be conducted in accordance with existing Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. The bill is set to take effect the day after it is enacted.
