What changed in the latest version
60 added · 34 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of HB 1021 contains additional lines that confirm the Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources can demolish and reclaim specific buildings at the South Dakota State Fairgrounds, with a budget of $337,000 allocated for the project. Importantly, the amendment allows the department to access funds from various external sources, such as federal grants or donations, to support this work. This matters because it gives the department more flexibility in funding the demolition and repairs, which can help improve the fairgrounds for future use.
