This bill increases funding for the State Veterans Cemetery by appropriating $1.5 million from the general fund and $500,000 from other sources to the Department of Veterans Affairs. The money will pay for road improvements to Slip Up Creek Road and 477th Avenue leading to the cemetery entrance in Minnehaha County, as well as for the cemetery's day-to-day operations. The bill declares an emergency so the funding takes effect immediately upon passage.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
