Public housing rehabilitation funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 1489 appropriates $100 million from state bond proceeds to rehabilitate public housing for low-income residents in Minnesota. The funds, administered by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, will cover costs for preserving publicly owned, federally financed housing units. Key provisions require prioritizing health, safety, and energy improvements in rehabilitation projects while maximizing federal or local funding. The state will issue up to $100 million in bonds to finance this appropriation, effective upon enactment. This directly supports public housing providers and residents in maintaining safe, affordable housing.
