HF 1090 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Library construction grant program renamed as the "Mary C. Murphy Library Construction Grants Program."

HF 1090 renames Minnesota's existing Library Construction Grant Program to the "Mary C. Murphy Library Construction Grants Program" in Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 134.45. The bill makes no changes to the program's eligibility, funding levels ($450,000 for accessibility projects or $1,000,000 for renovations/new buildings), or requirements - public libraries, regional systems, cities, and counties still qualify. It preserves all current provisions, including the 50% local funding match, accessibility focus, and prohibitions on using funds for new building accessibility compliance. The name change honors Mary C. Murphy but does not alter how the program operates or who benefits.
