AI Generated Summary

The legislative bill proposes to allocate funds from Minnesota's general budget in the fiscal year 2026. These funds are to be managed by the Commissioner of Employment and Economic Development and will be granted to the Second Harvest Northland Food Bank. The purpose of the funding is to help with the construction and renovation of an expanded facility in Duluth, which will be used as a food bank. Additionally, the money will cover the costs for purchasing and installing a new cooler and freezer system in this facility. The grant will only be issued once it is confirmed that adequate non-state funds have been secured to complete the project. This financial allocation is a one-time grant that will remain available until the project is either finished or abandoned.
