Blue Earth County supplemental housing support rate established.

HF 736 establishes a $750 monthly supplemental housing support rate (with inflation adjustments) for a specific long-term residential facility in Blue Earth County. The rate applies only to providers operating 20-bed facilities serving chemically dependent women and offering 24-hour supervision and support services. This supplemental rate, effective July 1, 2026, is in addition to existing rates and must be negotiated by the Blue Earth County agency. The bill directly affects the county agency, the designated housing provider, and the residents served by that facility.
