This Minnesota legislative bill, H. F. No., proposes allocating funds from the state's general fund to the Department of Education. These funds are specifically intended for grants that will help school districts and the Minnesota State Academies for the Deaf and the Blind to preserve historic school buildings. To qualify, these buildings must be actively used for educational purposes and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Each eligible building could receive up to $300,000. The funds must be used to maintain and prevent the deterioration of these historic structures. Additionally, any unused funds from the first year will carry over to the next year, and this funding structure is planned to continue into fiscal year 2028 and beyond.
