Section 1 authorizes the city of St. Cloud to use its local sales tax for regional community and aquatics facilities projects.  Allows St. Cloud area cities (St. Joseph, Waite Park, Sartell, Sauk Rapids, and Augusta) to continue to use local sales tax revenue for authorized projects, provided an extension of the tax is approved by voters. 

Section 2 extends the termination date of the St. Cloud and area cities local sales tax through 2038 if such an extension is approved by the voters at a general election held by November 6, 2018. 

Effective the day after the governing body of each city approves the local option sales tax by resolution and its chief clerical officers certify the voter approval of the tax to the Secretary of State.
