Authorizes a local sales and use tax in Austin, Minnesota, to fund a law enforcement center.
The bill allows the city of Austin to impose a sales and use tax of one-half of one percent, subject to voter approval. The tax revenue will be used to cover the costs of collecting and administering the tax, and to finance up to $25,000,000 for the construction and operation of a law enforcement center. The tax expires 14 years after imposition or when sufficient funds are collected, whichever comes first. The city may issue bonds to finance the project, with the bonds not subject to debt limitations or levy restrictions.
