Emergency shelter facility grant program established.

This bill establishes a grant program to fund the creation, renovation, and improvement of emergency shelter facilities for people experiencing homelessness in Minnesota. It creates two funding accounts in the state budget to provide grants of up to $1 million per project to eligible applicants including Tribal governments, non-profit organizations, and local governments. The program prioritizes projects that add new shelter beds, renovate existing facilities, or improve safety and accessibility, with at least 40% of funds directed to rural areas known as greater Minnesota. Grants can cover up to 100% of capital project costs, and recipients must meet all applicable building codes while following a competitive application process managed by the commissioner of human services.
