Pension and Corrections Pension updates

Anoka Co Jail and Gov Ctr

There are currently 2 Bills in the Minnesota Legislature that may exempt our PERA Pension from Minnesota State Tax!
I'm proud to say HF3902 is sponsored by my Rep. John Heinrich!

Anoka County is looking to build a new Jail and Dispatch Center. According to the Anoka County News on page 5 they have a current capacity of 180 inmates. They are considering  "Several scenarios and locations were discussed, with the preferred option being a two-story, 540-bed facility adjacent to the Anoka County Government Center, where the building’s parking ramp is currently located. A new facility would solve the overcrowding and boarding-out problems Anoka County continues to face; safety would increase for both jail staff and inmates; and the county would be able to better handle complex mental health needs of inmates in a facility that has areas designed for that function."
