Priorities.

(a) If applications for grants exceed the available appropriations,
grants must be made for public infrastructure that, in the commissioner's judgment,
provides the highest return in public benefits for the public costs incurred. "Public benefits"
include job creation, environmental benefits to the state and region, efficient use of public
transportation, efficient use of existing infrastructure, provision of affordable housing,
multiuse development that constitutes community rebuilding rather than single-use
development, crime reduction, blight reduction, community stabilization, and property tax
base maintenance or improvement. In making this judgment, the commissioner shall give
priority to eligible projects with one or more of the following characteristics:

(1) the potential of the local governmental unit to attract viable deleted text beginbiosciencedeleted text endnew text begin innovative
new text end businesses;

(2) proximity to public transit if located in a metropolitan county, as defined in
section 473.121, subdivision 4;

(3) multijurisdictional eligible projects that take into account the need for affordable
housing, transportation, and environmental impact;

(4) the eligible project is not relocating substantially the same operation from another
location in the state, unless the commissioner determines the eligible project cannot be
reasonably accommodated within the local governmental unit in which the business is
currently located, or the business would otherwise relocate to another state or country; and

(5) the number of jobs that will be created.

(b) The factors in paragraph (a) are not listed in a rank order of priority; rather, the
commissioner may weigh each factor, depending upon the facts and circumstances, as
the commissioner considers appropriate.

Subd. 6.

Cancellation of grant.

If a grant is awarded to a local governmental unit
and funds are not encumbered for the grant within four years after the award date, the
grant must be canceled.

Subd. 7.

Repayment of grant.

If an eligible project supported by public
infrastructure funded with a grant awarded under this section is not occupied by deleted text begina
