Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill requires the Department of Natural Resources to administer a revolving loan program to assist municipalities and owners of homes located on the shore of the Mississippi River where the structural integrity of municipal buildings or homes is threatened by erosion of the shoreline. The bill appropriates $2,000,000 to DNR for this purpose and increases DNR’s position authorization by 0.5 FTE position to administer the program. The bill requires DNR to promulgate rules to administer the program, including eligibility requirements and income limitations, and authorizes DNR to promulgate emergency rules for the period before permanent rules take effect.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
