Mandate relief provision for school districts

This bill (SF 3361) provides temporary relief for Minnesota school districts from certain new state education mandates. It allows districts to transfer unassigned funds between operating accounts for fiscal years 2025-2029 without increasing state aid or property taxes, requiring written resolutions and public posting. Additionally, districts may formally opt out of complying with specific newly enacted state education laws or rules (referenced as Laws 2023 ch. 53-59 and 2024 ch. 109-115) for the 2025-2026 through 2028-2029 school years, provided they post decisions online and notify the commissioner. The relief applies only to mandates enacted during the 2023-2024 legislative sessions.
