School board renewal of an expiring referendum requirements clarification provision
This bill clarifies how Minnesota school boards can renew expiring referendums without requiring a new voter vote. It directly affects school districts that need to extend existing funding referendums. Key provisions require school boards to: keep the same per-student funding level (or inflation-adjusted), renew for no longer than the original term, hold a public hearing with recorded votes, and submit the resolution by specific deadlines (June 15 before expiration, with a September 1 submission deadline). The changes apply retroactively to resolutions adopted since June 16, 2024.
