SF 4685 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain fees prohibition for residential improvements necessary to accommodate the disability of a veteran

This bill prohibits Minnesota municipalities from charging fees for residential improvements needed to accommodate a veteran's disability. It directly affects veterans with service-connected physical or mental impairments who need home modifications, as well as local governments that would otherwise collect permit and inspection fees for such projects. The law requires veterans to provide proof of their status and disability-related need, but prevents municipalities from refusing permits or inspections due to unpaid fees related to these specific improvements. The bill takes effect immediately upon final enactment.
