St. Paul, Minnesota — Today, the Minnesota House of Representatives passed HF3720. The bill, which provides flexibility to businesses like ValleyFair by lowering the minimum age required to operate amusement rides safely, was passed off of the House Floor. The bill was also amended to allow Minnesotans who are at least 16 years of age to operate certain types of lawn care equipment.
“By providing businesses with the flexibility to determine who is best suited to operate rides and attractions safely, we have found a way to help our local businesses thrive,” said Rep. Tabke (DFL- Shakopee) who authored the bill. “ I am proud to have bipartisan support so we can effectively aid our local economies during this economic downturn.”
