This bill proposes an appropriation of $500,000 from the strategic investment and improvements fund to the parks and recreation department for a ski resort infrastructure grant. The funds are designated for building and infrastructure repairs at a ski resort in North Dakota, addressing damage caused by snow and rain, deferred maintenance, and necessary equipment purchases. The funding is intended for the biennium from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027, and is contingent upon the ski resort securing matching funds from nonstate sources on a dollar-for-dollar basis. This grant is classified as a one-time funding item.

Additionally, the bill declares an emergency, indicating the urgency of the funding and the need for immediate action to support the ski resort infrastructure.
