Special peace officers provisions modification
This bill modifies Minnesota Statutes section 37.20 to update rules for peace officers at the Minnesota State Fair. It clarifies that the State Fair Society may appoint peace officers year-round (not just during the annual fair) to regulate fairgrounds. The bill also requires the Society to provide police service during major events drawing at least 2,500 attendees, extending coverage within half a mile of the fairgrounds. These changes directly affect the Minnesota State Fair Society's security operations and officer authority.
