Minnesota Legislature Overhauls Government Structure in 1967
The 1967 Minnesota Legislature dramatically reorganized five major government segments and created new agencies. Key changes include renaming the Railroad and Warehouse Commission to the State Public Service Commission and shifting to appointive commissioners, restructuring the Department of Labor and Industry into a Workmen's Compensation Commission, reorganizing the Conservation Department with conservation officers, forming the Department of Human Rights from SCAD, and renaming the Department of Business Development to Economic Development. New bodies include the Metropolitan Council, Metropolitan Transit Commission, a Land Exchange Review Board, a Pollution Control Commission, and an Office of Urban Affairs. The State Board of Education expanded and the surveyor general’s office was abolished.
