SF 3203 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

State fairgrounds public safety and municipal services aid with annual inflation adjustment establishment

This bill establishes annual financial aid for the cities of Falcon Heights and St. Paul to cover costs related to State Fairgrounds events. It provides $75,000 for Falcon Heights and $500,000 for St. Paul in 2026, with future payments automatically adjusted each year based on inflation using a specific federal government spending index. The aid compensates cities for public safety (police/fire/EMS), traffic management, sanitation, and neighborhood cleanup costs tied to fair events. Payments are made annually on July 20, with funds appropriated from the state general fund. The inflation adjustment mechanism ensures aid keeps pace with rising costs over time.
