University of Minnesota School of Dentistry capital improvements bond issue and authorization

This bill authorizes the issuance of up to $100 million in state bonds to fund capital improvements for the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry on the Twin Cities campus. The funds will be used for designing, renovating, and constructing clinical, teaching, research, and administrative spaces, as well as for site preparation, hazardous materials removal, and utility infrastructure upgrades. The state's bond proceeds will cover approximately two-thirds of the project costs, with the university responsible for funding the remaining portion. The legislation takes effect immediately upon final enactment.
