Legislative Agenda

The Parks & Trails Council of Minnesota has become the state's most influential voice for parks and trails at the state Capitol thanks to its working relationships with grassroots community groups, legislators and local governments from throughout the state. Always determined and forward thinking, the Parks & Trails Council heads into each legislative session armed with a comprehensive agenda that seeks necessary and smart investments in park and trail systems throughout the state.

The 2011 legislative session begins on Jan. 4 and is scheduled to adjourn May 16. Traditionally, the first year of the biennium is when the state's budget is set for the next two years. A large class of new legislators and a new governor will be grappling with a more than $6 billion general fund deficit.

Below you will find links to the Parks & Trails Council's 2011 legislative agenda and related fact sheets. You will also find fact sheets from previous legislative sessions for your reference.
