MINNESOTA STATUTES 1988 PREFACE I - THE OFFICE OF REVISOR OF STATUTES Minnesota Statutes 1988 is compiled, edited, published, and distributed by the state of Minnesota as required by law. The state has been performing similar work on predecessor publications since it was organized as a territory of the United States. The work began in 1851 when the legislature authorized the judiciary committees of the two houses to jointly compile and revise the laws of the territory of Minnesota. The committees appointed Morton S. Wilkinson, L.A. Babcock, and William Hol- combe, who were to assist them in their work. The work was completed and the compilation was enacted by the legislature. Wilkinson was then appointed commis­ sioner to superintend publication of the newly enacted compiled statutes. He published the compiled statutes together with explanatory notes, chapter analyses, and some textual alterations permitted by law. Seven years later, in 1858, a similar commission was set up to recompile the statutes. It consisted of Moses Sherburne, Aaron Goodrich, and William Hollinshead. Sherburne and Hollinshead later compiled and privately published the statutes. In 1863 another commission was established to revise the statutes. It consisted of S.J.R. McMillan, E.C. Palmer, Thomas Wilson, and Andrew G. Chatfield. Chatfield declined to serve, and in 1866 Gordon E. Cole was appointed to the commission. The new compilation, the work of Palmer and Cole, was presented to the legislature in 1866. It was enacted chapter by chapter, and Palmer was appointed commissioner to oversee its publication. The compilation was published with notes, tables, and indexes. The next official compilation was authorized in 1901 when the Supreme Court appointed Hiram F. Stevens, Daniel Fish, and T.J. Knox to a commission to recompile the statutes. Stevens later died and was succeeded by M.R. Tyler. The commission presented a report to the legislature in April 1905. It was adopted by the legislature and signed into law by the governor. The compilation, edited and annotated for the state by Mark B. Dunnell, was published in 1906 by the secretary of state. In 1911 the legislature authorized a commission consisting of the governor, the attorney general, and the chief justice to contract for the compilation and publication of the statutes. They made a contract with West Publishing Company, which published General Statutes of Minnesota 1913. The state again contracted for a private compila­ tion with the Review Publishing Company in 1923. Neither the 1911 nor the 1923 recompilation was enacted or otherwise approved by the legislature. The year 1939 marked an important change in the state's publication of its statutes. In that year, a law was enacted creating the Office of the Revisor of Statutes as a permanent agency under the jurisdiction of the Minnesota Supreme Court. The office was directed to prepare a new compilation to be called "Minnesota Statutes." In addition, the office was directed to engage in continual revision of the statutes. Continu­ al revision, carried out properly, makes periodic bulk revision unnecessary and avoids both the increasing difficulty of using a steadily older compilation and the destabilizing effect of a bulk change. The staff of the new office, under the direction of William B. Henderson, prepared and published Minnesota Statutes 1941. Because of problems in the text, it was not enacted. Rather, a new act in 1943 directed another revision. That work was completed, and a document entitled Minnesota Revised Statutes was filed with the secretary

AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon, in his official capacity, Defendant. INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiffs are citizens of Minnesota who have been denied the right to vote. They bring this civil action under the Minnesota Constitution to remedy the Defendant’s unconstitutional deprivations of their fundamental constitutional right to participate in the democratic process. 2. Each Plaintiff has been convicted of at least one of the hundreds of crimes classified as a felony in Minnesota, has completed any required period of incarceration, and is currently on parole, probation, or some other form of supervised release. As such, Plaintiffs have been deemed safe to live in their communities where they raise their children, contribute to Minnesota’s economic, cultural, religious, civic and political life, pay taxes, and bear the consequences of the decisions made by their governments. 3. Notwithstanding their status as contributing members of society whose full integration is central to their continued success in the community, Minnesota denies Plaintiffs an essential indicium of citizenship, the right to vote. 4. Under Article VII of the Minnesota Constitution, a Minnesota citizen who is convicted of a felony is automatically disenfranchised until their civil rights have been restored. However, Minnesota Statute Section 609.165, subdivisions 1-2 restores the right to vote only upon discharge, which is achieved by court order or upon expiration of sentence.

    Best Practices Review Contracting and Procurement in the Public Sector November 15, 2005 Government Information Division Office of the State Auditor State of Minnesota Deputy State Auditor Tony Sutton Government Information Staff David Kazeck, Supervisor John Jernberg, Research Analyst Jill Roberts, Research Analyst Andrea Johnson Wendy Murphy Trudy Specht Debbie Schultz Neal Meyer (Intern) Missy Graner (Intern) Rachael Paul (Intern) Legal Staff Mark Kerr Preface Last year we issued our first ever Best Practices Review entitled, Cooperative Efforts in Public Service Delivery. The review focused on ways to foster, craft and implement cooperative agreements in the public sector. The second review, Contracting and Procurement in the Public Sector, builds upon what was learned in the first review by providing detailed steps that can help increase accountability, reduce liability, and encourage savings when contracting and procuring in the public sector. We hope that this review will be a tool for local officials as they navigate through the contracting and procurement process. Overall, a best practices review’s purpose is greater than just drawing attention to noteworthy programs; it should also provide useful information that all local governments can use to adapt successful programs to their community. I would like to thank all of the participants who took part in the interviews and field visits as well as all of the local officials who took the time to fill-out our survey for this review. I would also like to thank the Topic Selection Advisory Committee for recommending this topic. We hope that this review, as well as future best practices reviews, will help local government officials identify new and innovative ways to deliver government services more efficiently and effectively.
