Greater Minnesota Housing Infrastructure program bond issuance and appropriation

SF 2237 authorizes the state to issue up to $4 million in bonds to fund housing infrastructure projects in Greater Minnesota (areas outside the Twin Cities metro). The bill appropriates $4 million from the bond proceeds fund to the housing development fund, then transfers it to the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency for its Greater Minnesota Housing Infrastructure grant program. This program provides funding for housing infrastructure improvements in communities across rural and suburban Minnesota. The funds will be used to support local housing development projects under existing state law, with the bond sale process following standard state procedures.
