63.30 	subdivision with a very low average net tax capacity.
63.31 	(c) Nothing in this section prevents the governor from recommending, or the 
63.32 	legislature from considering or funding, projects that do not meet the deadlines deadline in 
63.33 	subdivision 2 or the criteria in this subdivision or subdivision 3 when the governor or the 
63.34 	legislature determines that there is a compelling reason for the recommendation or funding.

64.1 	Sec. 30. [16B.307] ASSET PRESERVATION APPROPRIATIONS.
64.2 		Subdivision 1.Standards. Article XI, section 5, clause (a), of the Constitution 
64.3 	requires that state general obligation bonds be issued to finance only the acquisition or 
64.4 	betterment of public land, buildings, and other public improvements of a capital nature. 
64.5 	Money appropriated for asset preservation, whether from state bond proceeds or from 
64.6 	other revenue, is subject to the following additional limitations:
64.7 	(a) An appropriation for asset preservation may not be used to acquire new land nor 
64.8 	to acquire or construct new buildings, additions to buildings, or major new improvements.
64.9 	(b) An appropriation for asset preservation may be used only for a capital 
64.10 	expenditure on a capital asset previously owned by the state, within the meaning 
64.11 	of generally accepted accounting principles as applied to public expenditures. The 
64.12 	commissioner of administration will consult with the commissioner of finance to the 
64.13 	extent necessary to ensure this and will furnish the commissioner of finance a list of 
64.14 	projects to be financed from the account in order of their priority. The legislature assumes 
64.15 	that many projects for preservation and replacement of portions of existing capital 
64.16 	assets will constitute betterments and capital improvements within the meaning of the 
64.17 	Constitution and capital expenditures under generally accepted accounting principles, 
64.18 	and will be financed more efficiently and economically under this section than by direct 
64.19 	appropriations for specific projects. 
64.20 	(c) Categories of projects considered likely to be most needed and appropriate for 
64.21 	asset preservation appropriations are the following:
64.22 	(1) projects to remove life safety hazards, like building code violations or structural 
64.23 	defects. Notwithstanding paragraph (a), a project in this category may include an addition 
64.24 	to an existing building if it is a required component of the hazard removal project;
64.25 	(2) projects to eliminate or contain hazardous substances like asbestos or lead paint;
64.26 	(3) major projects to replace or repair roofs, windows, tuckpointing, mechanical or 
64.27 	electrical systems, utility infrastructure, tunnels, site renovations necessary to support 
64.28 	building use, and structural components necessary to preserve the exterior and interior 
64.29 	of existing buildings; and
64.30 	(4) projects to renovate parking structures.
64.31 	(d) Up to ten percent of an appropriation subject to this section may be used for 
64.32 	design costs for projects eligible to be funded under this section in anticipation of future 
64.33 	asset preservation appropriations.
64.34 		Subd. 2.Report. By January 15 of each year, the commissioner of an agency that 
64.35 	has received an appropriation for asset preservation shall submit to the commissioner of 
64.36 	finance, the chairs of the legislative committees or divisions that currently oversee the 
65.1 	appropriations to the agency, and to the chairs of the senate and house of representatives 
65.2 	Capital Investment Committees, a list of the projects that have been funded with money 
65.3 	under this program during the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of those priority 
65.4 	asset preservation projects for which state bond proceeds fund appropriations will be 
65.5 	sought during that year's legislative session.

65.6 	Sec. 31. Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 85.015, is amended by adding a subdivision 
65.7 	to read:
65.8 		Subd. 25.Great River Ridge Trail, Wabasha and Olmsted Counties. (a) The 
65.9 	trail shall originate in the city of Plainview in Wabasha County and extend southwesterly 
65.10 	through the city of Elgin in Wabasha County and the town of Viola in Olmsted County to 
65.11 	the Chester Woods Trail in Olmsted County.
65.12 	(b) The commissioner of natural resources shall enter an agreement with the 
65.13 	Wabasha County Regional Rail Authority to maintain and develop the Great River Ridge 
65.14 	Trail as a state trail.

65.15 	EFFECTIVE DATE. This section is effective the day after the governing body of 
65.16 	the Wabasha County Regional Rail Authority and its chief clerical officer timely complete 
65.17 	their compliance with Minnesota Statutes, section 645.021, subdivisions 2 and 3.

65.18 	Sec. 32. Minnesota Statutes 2005 Supplement, section 85.019, subdivision 2, is 
65.19 	amended to read:
65.20 		Subd. 2.Parks and outdoor recreation areas. (a) The commissioner shall 
65.21 	administer a program to provide grants to units of government for up to 50 percent of the 
65.22 	costs of acquisition and betterment of public land and improvements needed for parks and 
65.23 	other outdoor recreation areas and facilities, including costs to create veterans memorial 
65.24 	gardens and parks.
65.25 	(b) For units of government outside the metropolitan area as defined in section 
65.26 	473.121, subdivision 2, the local match required for a grant to acquire or better a regional 
65.27 	park or regional outdoor recreation area is $2 of nonstate money for each $3 of state money.

65.28 	Sec. 33. [86A.12] NATURAL RESOURCES CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT 
65.29 	PROGRAM.
65.30 		Subdivision 1.Establishment. A natural resources capital improvement program 
65.31 	is established to prioritize among eligible public projects to be funded from state bond 
65.32 	proceeds appropriated to the commissioner and distinctly specified for the purposes of 
66.1 	the program established in this section and in accordance with the standards and criteria 
66.2 	set forth in this section.
66.3 		Subd. 2.Purposes. The purpose of the natural resources capital improvement 
66.4 	program is to improve the management and conservation of the natural resources of the 
66.5 	state, including  recreational, scientific and natural areas, and wild game and fish, through 
66.6 	the acquisition and betterment of public lands, buildings, and improvements of a capital 
66.7 	nature.
66.8 		Subd. 3.Program standards. Article XI, section 5, clause (a), of the Constitution 
66.9 	provides that state general obligation bonds may be issued to finance the acquisition 
66.10 	or betterment, including preservation, of public land, buildings, and improvements of 
66.11 	a capital nature and to provide money to be appropriated or loaned to any agency or 
66.12 	political subdivision of the state for those purposes. Article XI, section 5, clause (f), of the 
66.13 	Constitution further provides that state general obligation bonds may be issued to finance 
66.14 	the promotion of forestation and prevention and abatement of forest fires, including the 
66.15 	compulsory clearing and improving of public and private wild lands.  In interpreting these 
66.16 	provisions and applying them to the purpose of the program established in this section, 
66.17 	the following standards are adopted for determining the priority among eligible natural 
66.18 	resources projects to be funded under the program:
66.19 	(a)  A project will be an expenditure eligible under this program only when it is a 
66.20 	capital expenditure on a capital asset owned or to be owned by the state or a political 
66.21 	subdivision of the state within the meaning of accepted accounting principles as applied to 
66.22 	public expenditures.  The legislature assumes that some provisions for the management 
66.23 	and conservation of the natural resources of the state constituting acquisition or betterment 
66.24 	of land, buildings, or capital improvements within the meaning of the Constitution will be 
66.25 	sensitive to timing and circumstances and require discretion of the commissioner based on 
66.26 	currently available facts and circumstances, particularly projects related to the mitigation 
66.27 	of natural disasters and the acquisition of lands as they become available, and so these 
66.28 	projects will be financed more efficiently and economically under the program than by 
66.29 	separate appropriations for each project.
66.30 	(b)  The commissioner will review potential eligible projects, will make initial 
66.31 	allocations among types of eligible projects within each category enumerated in the act 
66.32 	making an appropriation for the program, will determine priorities within each category, 
66.33 	and will allocate money as specified in the appropriation act and in priority order within 
66.34 	each category until the available appropriation for the category has been committed.  
66.35 		Subd. 4.Criteria for priorities. (a)  The following criteria must be considered:
67.1 	(1) expansion of the natural resources of the state for the enjoyment and use of 
67.2 	the public;
67.3 	(2) urgency in providing for the conservation of the natural resources of the state, 
67.4 	including protection of threatened and endangered species and waters;
67.5 	(3) necessity in ensuring the safety of the public; and
67.6 	(4) additional criteria for priorities otherwise specified in state law, statute, rule, 
67.7 	or regulation applicable to a category listed in the act making an appropriation for the 
67.8 	program.
67.9 	(b)  Criteria can be stated only in general terms, since it is a purpose of the program 
67.10 	to improve the allocation of limited amounts of available funds by enlisting the knowledge 
67.11 	and experience of the Department of Natural Resources in determining relative needs as 
67.12 	they develop. 
67.13 	     (c)  The criteria in paragraph (a) are not listed in a rank order of priority. 
67.14 	   (d)  Economy is also to be determined and may even reinforce a decision based on 
67.15 	other criteria, if the project would forestall a larger future capital expenditure or would 
67.16 	reduce operating expense.  
67.17 	    (e)  Absolute cost must also be considered.  It may be too high to warrant funding 
67.18 	except by an additional appropriation, or so high as to warrant a recommendation to 
67.19 	abandon the project.  It may be so low as to permit payment out of the department's 
67.20 	operating budget. 
67.21 		Subd. 5.Report.  By January 15 of each year, the commissioner of natural resources 
67.22 	shall submit to the commissioner of finance, the chairs of the legislative committees or 
67.23 	divisions that currently oversee the appropriations to the Department of Natural Resources, 
67.24 	and to the chairs of the senate and the house of representatives Capital Investment 
67.25 	Committees, a list of the projects that have been funded with money under this program 
67.26 	during the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of those priority projects for which 
67.27 	state bond proceeds fund appropriations will be sought under this program during that 
67.28 	year's legislative session.

67.29 	Sec. 34. [116J.435] BIOSCIENCE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PUBLIC 
67.30 	INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT PROGRAM.
67.31 		Subdivision 1.Creation of account. A bioscience business development public 
67.32 	infrastructure account is created in the bond proceeds fund. Money in the account may 
67.33 	only be used for capital costs of public infrastructure for eligible bioscience business 
67.34 	development projects.
67.35 		Subd. 2.Definitions. For purposes of this section:
68.1 	(1) "local governmental unit" means a county, city, town, special district, or other 
68.2 	political subdivision or public corporation;

68.9 	and research infrastructure; and 
68.10 	(4) "eligible project" means a bioscience business development capital improvement 
68.11 	project in this state, including: manufacturing; technology; warehousing and distribution; 
68.12 	research and development; bioscience business incubator; agricultural bioprocessing; or 
68.13 	industrial, office, or research park development that would be used by a bioscience-based 
68.14 	business.
68.15 		Subd. 3.Grant program established. (a) The commissioner shall make 
68.16 	competitive grants to local governmental units to acquire and prepare land on which 
68.17 	public infrastructure required to support an eligible project will be located, including 
68.18 	demolition of structures and remediation of any hazardous conditions on the land, or to 
68.19 	predesign, design, acquire, construct, furnish, and equip public infrastructure required to 
68.20 	support an eligible project. The local governmental unit receiving a grant must provide for 
68.21 	the remainder of the public infrastructure costs. 
68.22 	(b) The amount of a grant may not exceed the lesser of the cost of the public 
68.23 	infrastructure or 50 percent of the sum of the cost of the public infrastructure plus the cost 
68.24 	of the completed eligible project.
68.25 	(c) The purpose of the program is to keep or enhance jobs in the area, increase the 
68.26 	tax base, or to expand or create new economic development through the growth of new 
68.27 	bioscience businesses and organizations.
68.28 		Subd. 4.Application. (a) The commissioner must develop forms and procedures 
68.29 	for soliciting and reviewing applications for grants under this section. At a minimum, a 
68.30 	local governmental unit must include the following information in its application:
68.31 	(1) a resolution of its governing body certifying that the money required to be 
68.32 	supplied by the local governmental unit to complete the public infrastructure is available 
68.33 	and committed; 
68.34 	(2) a detailed estimate, along with necessary supporting evidence, of the total 
68.35 	development costs for the public infrastructure and eligible project;
69.1 	(3) an assessment of the potential or likely use of the site for bioscience activities 
69.2 	after completion of the public infrastructure and eligible project; 
69.3 	(4) a timeline indicating the major milestones of the public infrastructure and eligible 
69.4 	project and their anticipated completion dates; 
69.5 	(5) a commitment from the governing body to repay the grant if the milestones are 
69.6 	not realized by the completion date identified in clause (4); and 
69.7 	(6) any additional information or material the commissioner prescribes.
69.8 	(b) The determination of whether to make a grant under subdivision 3 is within the 
69.9 	discretion of the commissioner, subject to this section. The commissioner's decisions and 
69.10 	application of the priorities are not subject to judicial review, except for abuse of discretion. 
69.11 		Subd. 5.Priorities. (a) If applications for grants exceed the available appropriations, 
69.12 	grants must be made for public infrastructure that, in the commissioner's judgment, 
69.13 	provides the highest return in public benefits for the public costs incurred. "Public benefits" 
69.14 	include job creation, environmental benefits to the state and region, efficient use of public 
69.15 	transportation, efficient use of existing infrastructure, provision of affordable housing, 
69.16 	multiuse development that constitutes community rebuilding rather than single-use 
69.17 	development, crime reduction, blight reduction, community stabilization, and property tax 
69.18 	base maintenance or improvement. In making this judgment, the commissioner shall give 
69.19 	priority to eligible projects with one or more of the following characteristics:
69.20 	(1) the potential of the local government unit to attract viable bioscience businesses; 
69.21 	(2) proximity to public transit if located in a metropolitan county, as defined in 
69.22 	section 473.121, subdivision 4; 
69.23 	(3) multijurisdictional eligible projects that take into account the need for affordable 
69.24 	housing, transportation, and environmental impact; 
69.25 	(4) the eligible project is not relocating substantially the same operation from another 
69.26 	location in the state, unless the commissioner determines the eligible project cannot be 
69.27 	reasonably accommodated within the local governmental unit in which the business is 
69.28 	currently located, or the business would otherwise relocate to another state or country; and 
69.29 	(5) the number of jobs that will be created. 
69.30 	(b) The factors in paragraph (a) are not listed in a rank order of priority; rather, the 
69.31 	commissioner may weigh each factor, depending upon the facts and circumstances, as 
69.32 	the commissioner considers appropriate. 
69.33 		Subd. 6.Cancellation of grant. If a grant is awarded to a local governmental unit 
69.34 	and funds are not encumbered for the grant within four years after the award date, the 
69.35 	grant must be canceled. 
70.1 		Subd. 7.Repayment of grant. If an eligible project supported by public 
70.2 	infrastructure funded with a grant awarded under this section is not occupied by a 
70.3 	bioscience business in accordance with the grant application under subdivision 4 within 
70.4 	five years after the date of the last grant payment, the grant recipient must repay the 
70.5 	amount of the grant received. The commissioner must deposit all money received under 
70.6 	this subdivision into the state treasury and credit it to the debt service account in the 
70.7 	state bond fund.

70.14 	may otherwise become available to acquire land, and to acquire, construct, complete, 
70.15 	remodel, and equip structures or portions thereof to be used for dormitory, residence hall, 
70.16 	student union, food service, and related parking purposes at, or for any other similar 
70.17 	revenue-producing building or buildings of such type and character as the board finds 
70.18 	desirable for the good and benefit of the state universities. Before issuing the bonds or any 
70.19 	part of them, the board shall consult with and obtain the advisory recommendations of the 
70.20 	chairs of the house Ways and Means Committee and the senate Finance Committee about 
70.21 	the facilities to be financed by the bonds.

70.26 	or received by the department for the purpose of rail service improvement, including
70.27 	excluding  bond proceeds as authorized by article XI, section 5, clause (i) of the Minnesota 
70.28 	Constitution. All money so deposited is appropriated to the department for expenditure 
70.29 	for rail service improvement in accordance with applicable state and federal law. This

70.31 	appropriated has been accomplished. No money appropriated to the department for the 
70.32 	purposes of administering the rail service improvement program shall be deposited in the 
70.33 	rail service improvement account nor shall such administrative costs be paid from the 
70.34 	account.

71.1 	Sec. 37. [241.0222] CONTRACTS WITH NEWLY CONSTRUCTED JAIL
