AI Generated Summary
This bill seeks to amend Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 13.02, subdivision 11, to make all towns subject to the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act. Currently, only certain towns exercising powers under chapter 368 in the metropolitan area are included in the definition of "political subdivision" for data practices purposes.
