for replacement. In allowing replacement of a decertified bed,
the commissioners shall ensure that the number of added or

beds in the state in that level of care. An extreme hardship
situation can only be found after the county documents the

and has either commenced any required construction as defined in
clause (b) before May 1, 1985, or has, before May 1, 1985,
received from the commissioner approval of plans for phased-in

(5) the number of licensed and certified beds in the new
facility does not exceed the number of licensed and certified
beds in the destroyed facility;
(h) to license or certify beds that are moved from one
location to another within a nursing home facility, provided the

facility makes a written commitment to the commissioner of human
services that it will not seek to receive an increase in its
property-related payment rate by reason of the remodeling or
renovation;

of beds may occur gradually or in stages, provided the total
number of beds transferred does not exceed 40. At the time of
licensure and certification of a bed or beds in the new unit,
the commissioner of health shall delicense and decertify the
same number of beds in the existing facility. As a condition of
receiving a license or certification under this clause, the
facility must make a written commitment to the commissioner of
human services that it will not seek to receive an increase in
its property-related payment rate as a result of the transfers
allowed under this clause;

nursing home facility or in a remodeled, renovated, newly
constructed, or replacement nursing home facility within the
identifiable complex of health care facilities in which the

whichever is less, the facility makes a written commitment to
the commissioner of human services that it will not seek to
receive an increase in its property-related payment rate by

renovation. The provisions contained in section 144A.073
regarding the upgrading of facilities do not apply to facilities
that satisfy these requirements; or
(s) to license or certify beds that are moved from a
nursing home to a separate facility under common ownership or
control that was formerly licensed as a hospital and is
currently licensed as a nursing facility and that is located
within eight miles of the original facility, provided the

amended to read:
252.27 [PARENTAL CONTRIBUTION FOR THE COST OF CHILDREN'S
SERVICES.]
Subdivision 1. [COUNTY RESPONSIBILITY.] Whenever any child
who has mental retardation or a related condition, or a physical
or emotional handicap is in 24-hour care outside the home
including respite care, in a facility licensed by the
commissioner of human services, the cost of services shall be
paid by the county of financial responsibility determined
pursuant to chapter 256G. If the child's parents or guardians
do not reside in this state, the cost shall be paid by the
responsible governmental agency in the state from which the
child came, by the parents or guardians of the child if they are
financially able, or, if no other payment source is available,
by the commissioner of human services.
Subd. 1a. [DEFINITIONS.] A person has a "related
condition" if that person has a severe, chronic disability that
is (a) attributable to cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism,
Prader-Willi syndrome, or any other condition, other than mental
illness, found to be closely related to mental retardation
because the condition results in impairment of general
intellectual functioning or adaptive behavior similar to that of
persons with mental retardation or requires treatment or
services similar to those required for persons with mental
retardation; (b) is likely to continue indefinitely; and (c)
results in substantial functional limitations in three or more
of the following areas of major life activity: self-care,
understanding and use of language, learning, mobility,
self-direction, or capacity for independent living. For the
purposes of this section, a child has an "emotional handicap" if
the child has a psychiatric or other emotional disorder which
substantially impairs the child's mental health and requires
24-hour treatment or supervision.
Subd. 2. [PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY.] Responsibility of the
parents for the cost of services shall be based upon ability to
pay. The state agency shall adopt rules to determine
responsibility of the parents for the cost of services when:
(a) Insurance or other health care benefits pay some but
not all of the cost of services; and
(b) No insurance or other health care benefits are
available.
Subd. 2a. [CONTRIBUTION AMOUNT.] (a) The natural or
adoptive parents of a minor child, including a child determined
eligible for medical assistance without consideration of
parental income, must contribute monthly to the cost of
services, unless the child is married or has been married,
parental rights have been terminated, or the child's adoption is
subsidized according to section 259.40 or through title IV-E of
the Social Security Act.
(b) The parental contribution equals the following
percentage of that portion of the income of the natural or
adoptive parents that exceeds 200 percent of the federal poverty
guidelines for the applicable household size:
Adjusted Gross Percentage contribution
Income exceeding 200 percent of poverty
Under $40,000 0
$40,000 to Under $49,999 10
$50,000 to $59,999 12
$60,000 to $74,999 14
$75,000 or more 15
If the child lives with the parent, the parental
contribution is reduced by $200. If the child resides in an
institution specified in section 256B.35, the parent is
responsible for the personal needs allowance specified under
that section in addition to the parental contribution determined
under this section. The parental contribution is reduced by any
amount required to be paid directly to the child pursuant to a
court order, but only if actually paid.
(c) The household size to be used in determining the amount
of contribution under paragraph (b) includes natural and
adoptive parents and their dependents under age 21, including
the child receiving services. Adjustments in the contribution
amount due to annual changes in the federal poverty guidelines
shall be implemented on the first day of July following
publication of the changes.
(d) For purposes of paragraph (b), "income" means the
adjusted gross income of the natural or adoptive parents
determined according to the previous year's federal tax form.
(e) The contribution shall be explained in writing to the
parents at the time eligibility for services is being
determined. The contribution shall be made on a monthly basis
effective with the first month in which the child receives
services. Annually upon redetermination or at termination of
eligibility, if the contribution exceeded the cost of services
provided, the local agency or the state shall reimburse that
excess amount to the parents, either by direct reimbursement if
the parent is no longer required to pay a contribution, or by a
reduction in or waiver of parental fees until the excess amount
is exhausted.
(f) The monthly contribution amount must be reviewed at
least every 12 months; when there is a change in household size;
and when there is a loss of or gain in income from one month to
another in excess of ten percent. The local agency shall mail a
written notice 30 days in advance of the effective date of a
change in the contribution amount. A decrease in the
contribution amount is effective in the month that the parent
verifies a reduction in income or change in household size.
(g) Parents of a minor child who do not live with each
other shall each pay the contribution required under paragraph
(a), except that a court-ordered child support payment actually
paid on behalf of the child receiving services shall be deducted
from the contribution of the parent making the payment.
(h) The contribution under paragraph (b) shall be increased
by an additional five percent if the local agency determines
that insurance coverage is available but not obtained for the
child. For purposes of this section, "available" means the
insurance is a benefit of employment for a family member at an
annual cost of no more than five percent of the family's annual
income. For purposes of this section, insurance means health
and accident insurance coverage, enrollment in a nonprofit
health service plan, health maintenance organization,
self-insured plan, or preferred provider organization.
Parents who have more than one child receiving services
shall not be required to pay more than the amount for the child
with the highest expenditures. There shall be no resource
contribution from the parents. The parent shall not be required
to pay a contribution in excess of the cost of the services
provided to the child, not counting payments made to school
districts for education-related services. Notice of an increase
in fee payment must be given at least 30 days before the
increased fee is due.
Subd. 2b. [CHILD'S RESPONSIBILITY.] Responsibility of the
child for the cost of care shall be up to the maximum amount of
the total income and resources attributed to the child except
for the clothing and personal needs allowance as provided in
section 256B.35, subdivision 1. Reimbursement by the parents
and child shall be made to the county making any payments for
services. The county board may require payment of the full cost
of caring for children whose parents or guardians do not reside
in this state.
To the extent that a child described in subdivision 1 is
eligible for benefits under chapter 62A, 62C, 62D, 62E, or 64B,
the county is not liable for the cost of services.
Subd. 2c. [APPEALS.] A parent may appeal the determination
of an obligation to make a contribution under this section,
according to section 256.045.
Subd. 3. [CIVIL ACTIONS.] If the parent fails to make
appropriate reimbursement as required in subdivision 2a and 2b,
the attorney general, at the request of the commissioner, may
institute or direct the appropriate county attorney to institute
civil action to recover the required reimbursement.
Subd. 4. [ORDER OF PAYMENT.] If the parental contribution
is for reimbursement for the cost of services to both the local
agency and the medical assistance program, the local agency
shall be reimbursed for its expenses first and the remainder
must be deposited in the medical assistance account.

enacted in 1990, is amended to read:
Subdivision 1. [LIMITED VALUATION INCREASE.] (a)
Notwithstanding Minnesota Statutes, section 273.11, or any other
law to the contrary, the estimated market value of a
manufactured home park, as defined in section 327.14,
subdivision 3, and assessed under section 273.13, subdivision
25, for taxes levied in 1990, may not exceed 133-1/3 percent of
its estimated market value for taxes levied in 1989 as limited
by Laws 1989, First Special Session chapter 1, article 3,
section 32, subdivision 1. The excess market value must be
entered equally in the next two succeeding assessment years. The
increase in the estimated market value of a manufactured home
park, as defined in section 327.14, subdivision 3, and assessed
under section 273.13, subdivision 25, for taxes levied in 1990,
1991, and 1992 shall be computed as follows: one-third of the
difference between its market value for taxes levied in 1989 as
limited by Laws 1989, 1st Special Session chapter 1, article 3,
section 32, subdivision 1, and its unlimited market value for
taxes levied in 1990 shall be added to its limited market value
for the prior year in each of the three years. In addition, for
any increase in market value subsequent to taxes levied in 1990,
all of that increase shall be added to the prior year's limited
market value after the adjustment in the prior sentence.
(b) This subdivision does not apply to increases in value
attributable to improvements made to the real estate since the
January 2, 1989, assessment. It does not apply to property
becoming subject to taxation since the January 2, 1989,
assessment. The limitation in this subdivision applies to any
increase in valuation imposed by the local boards of review
under section 274.01, the county boards of equalization under
section 274.13, and the state board of equalization and the
commissioner of revenue under sections 270.11, 270.12, and
