This bill, proposed by Representative Swedzinski, involves financial support for upgrades at the MERIT Center in Marshall, Minnesota. The bill allocates $5,143,000 from a bond proceeds fund to the Commissioner of Public Safety. This money will be used to design, construct, furnish, and equip new facilities at the Minnesota Emergency Response and Industrial Training (MERIT) Center. The improvements include building a 50-yard and 300-yard firearms range, firearms support buildings, and a structure for conducting live fire training exercises.

To fund these upgrades, the state will sell and issue bonds worth up to $5,143,000. These bonds will be managed according to specific sections of Minnesota law and the Minnesota Constitution.
