It is being supported by the League of Minnesota Cities. It expands the authority for municipalities to issue bonds for housing projects in redevelopment areas and for the purposes of housing rehabilitation. It is clearly in our interest to support this legislation since it will enable us to proceed with certain types of housing projects more easily than if such legislation did not exist.
