AI Generated Summary
This bill proposes an amendment to Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 340A.404, subdivision 2b, to allow the city of St. Paul to issue on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses to the Science Museum of Minnesota and the Union Depot. Currently, St. Paul can issue such licenses to specific theaters, overriding restrictions related to zoning, school, or church distances.
