Carlton County facilities for residential substance abuse appropriation

SF 3445 appropriates $25 million from state bond proceeds to fund new residential substance abuse treatment facilities in Carlton County. The bill authorizes the state to sell bonds up to this amount to cover costs for acquiring property, construction, and equipping these facilities for residential substance use disorder services. It directly affects Carlton County residents seeking inpatient treatment by creating new capacity at Direct Care and Treatment facilities. Any unused funds after project completion would be redirected to capital improvements at similar facilities statewide, per Minnesota law.
