Local homeless prevention aid reporting requirements modified, redistribution of unspent money allowed, and aid sunset repealed.

This bill modifies Minnesota's local homeless prevention aid program by changing how unspent funds are handled and removing the program's expiration date. Counties and Tribal governments receiving aid must continue to use the money for family homeless prevention projects targeting families with children in housing crisis situations, unaccompanied youth, and those lacking stable housing. The legislation allows jurisdictions to return unspent funds to the state by December 31 of the following year, with those funds then redistributed to other eligible areas in the next distribution cycle. Additionally, the bill extends the program indefinitely by repealing its previous 2028 expiration and requires annual reporting on funded projects and outcomes starting in 2025.
