The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 375.20, which pertains to the timing of special elections related to ballot questions. Specifically, it changes the timeframe within which a special county election must be held after the county board adopts a resolution. The previous requirement of holding the election within 74 days has been extended to 84 days.

Additionally, the bill outlines the procedures for submitting questions to voters, including the necessary details that must be included on the ballot, such as the substance of the resolution and the options for voting. It also mandates that the county auditor must post and publish notices of the election in accordance with existing laws, ensuring transparency and proper communication with the public regarding upcoming elections.
