ST. PAUL - The Minnesota Legislature approved a 167.5-million dollar flood relief package following a special session.

The money will be used to assist Minnesotans whose homes, businesses and communities were affected by severe natural disasters this summer.

Dayton signed the bill just hours after it was approved.  The governor says he's pleased the bill passed and that legislators kept their promise to limit the special session to just disaster relief.
