Summary — HF 1058 (2025): North Koochiching sanitary sewer board composition modified

Status: Enacted — Governor approved 04/30/2025; Chaptered as Chapter 6 (04/30/25)
Introduced: 02/17/2025
Companion bill: SF 563

Purpose / Intent

HF 1058 changes the statutory composition and related governance provisions for the North Koochiching sanitary sewer board. The bill’s primary intent is to revise who serves on the board and how membership is determined so the sewer district’s governing body better reflects current local needs and authorities.

Key provisions (high-level)

The bill’s title and legislative history indicate the following types of statutory changes were made (readers should consult the enrolled bill text for exact language):

  • Modifies the membership composition of the North Koochiching sanitary sewer board — this can include changes to the number of members, which offices or jurisdictions appoint members, or allocation of seats among municipalities, the county, and other stakeholders.
  • Updates appointment or election procedures for board members (who appoints, term lengths, and qualifications).
  • May adjust governance rules tied to composition changes (quorum, voting thresholds, officer selection).
  • Potential technical or conforming edits to cross‑referenced statutes so state law reflects the new board structure.

Because the enrolled text is not reproduced here, specifics (exact number of seats, appointing authorities, term durations, effective dates for particular changes) should be confirmed in the final chaptered law.

Who is affected

  • Residents and ratepayers served by the North Koochiching sanitary sewer district (service governance and local oversight).
  • Local governments and officials with appointing authority or representation on the board (e.g., Koochiching County, any cities within the district).
  • District staff, contractors, and others interacting with board governance (procurement, contracts, policy decisions).

Procedural and timeline notes

  • Introduced in the House: 02/17/2025; referred to Elections, Finance and Government Operations.
  • Passed by the House and then the Senate in March–April 2025; Senate returned an amended version; House concurred with amendments 04/21/2025.
  • Presented to governor 04/29/2025; approved by governor and filed with Secretary of State 04/30/2025. Chaptered as Chapter 6 on 04/30/2025.
  • For precise operative/effective dates and the full statutory text, consult the enrolled bill / session law (Minnesota Session Laws, 2025, Chapter 6) or the Minnesota Legislature website.
