HF 389 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Minnesota Historical Society meetings required to be open to the public and the Minnesota Historical Society's data required to be public data as to state-owned properties.

HF 389 requires the Minnesota Historical Society to hold meetings about state-owned historic sites, designated historic places, and National Register properties open to the public, following standard open-meeting laws. It also mandates that all data the Society maintains about these properties be treated as public data under Minnesota law. This means anyone can access meeting records and the Society's data on state-owned historic resources. The bill directly affects the Society's operations and increases public transparency regarding historic property management. It does not change ownership or funding for these properties, only access to information.
