SF 27 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Payment prohibition of certain indirect costs from legacy funds

SF 27 prohibits organizations receiving funds from Minnesota's parks and trails, outdoor heritage, clean water, or arts and cultural heritage legacy funds from using those specific funds to cover standard overhead costs like rent, utilities, or building maintenance. Recipients may only use these funds for overhead if they document a direct, necessary increase in those costs resulting from administering the funded program. The bill requires that any overhead payment from these funds cannot exceed the documented increase amount. This applies to all recipients of these four specific legacy funds, ensuring funds are used primarily for the intended program activities rather than general operating expenses.
