This bill, Minnesota Senate File No. 1960, proposes appropriating $6,500,000 from bond proceeds for the construction of a new National Loon Center in the city of Crosslake, Minnesota. The funds would be granted to the city of Crosslake through the commissioner of natural resources to finance the building, furnishing, and equipping of the facility, as well as related outdoor public space improvements, including surface parking areas.

To finance this project, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds of up to $6,500,000, in accordance with Minnesota statutes and the Minnesota Constitution.
