The bill proposes an appropriation of $10,000,000 to the commissioner of employment and economic development for a grant to the city of St. Paul. This funding is designated for the design, renovation, and equipping of capital safety improvements at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts.

To finance this appropriation, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the same amount of $10,000,000. The bond issuance will be conducted in accordance with existing Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. The bill also states that it will take effect the day following its final enactment.
