The bill proposes a capital investment for the Conway Recreation Center in St. Paul, appropriating $3,000,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development. This funding is designated for a grant to the Sanneh Foundation, a nonprofit organization, to facilitate the design, construction, furnishing, and equipping of improvements necessary for the renovation and expansion of the center. The upgraded facility aims to serve as a permanent food distribution center, senior center, health and wellness clinic, and women's athletic center, thereby enhancing community services related to health care and nutrition.
Additionally, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $3,000,000 to finance the appropriated funds. The bond sale will be conducted in accordance with existing Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. The effective date of this section is set for the day following its final enactment.
