White Bear Lake Area Historical Society grant funding provided, and money appropriated.

HF 243 appropriates $3 million from Minnesota's general fund for a one-time grant to the White Bear Lake Area Historical Society, a nonprofit organization. The funding is specifically for renovating, constructing, furnishing, and equipping the White Bear Armory in White Bear Lake to create a history museum. This bill directly affects the historical society and the local community by enabling the repurposing of a public building into a cultural facility. The appropriation is available until the project is completed or abandoned, as specified in Minnesota Statutes section 16A.642.
