This bill proposes to rename the State Office Building located at 100 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. in St. Paul to the "Melissa Hortman State Office Building." The legislation includes provisions for the modification or replacement of signage to reflect this new name, specifying that the commissioner of administration will cover these costs using general fund appropriations. Importantly, the bill stipulates that these signage costs will not be factored into lease rates for the fiscal years 2028 and 2029, nor will they be passed on to the building's tenants.
Additionally, the bill instructs the revisor of statutes to update all references in Minnesota Statutes and Minnesota Rules from "State Office Building" to "the Melissa Hortman State Office Building." This ensures consistency across legal documents following the renaming.
