SF 857 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

National Register of Historic Places log-term facilities maintenance revenue and revenue uses for school districts with facilities on the list authorization and appropriation

This bill authorizes additional long-term facilities maintenance revenue for Minnesota school districts that operate buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It adds a new per-pupil funding amount (to be specified in appropriations) to existing maintenance revenue, specifically for districts with historic facilities. The funds may only be used for preservation-related work like HVAC systems or remodeling that maintains historic integrity, and cannot fund new construction, portable classrooms, or unrelated projects. The changes take effect for fiscal year 2026 and later.
