Distribution of local affordable housing aid modified.
This bill changes how local sales tax revenue is shared between cities and counties in Minnesota's metropolitan areas. Under the new rules, 75% of the funds will go to counties while 25% goes to cities, reversing the previous 50-50 split. The legislation also clarifies that money in the city aid account can come from donations or transfers, not just sales tax proceeds. These adjustments affect how housing assistance funds are allocated to local governments responsible for affordable housing programs.
