Not having access to the chart, I can only presume they got lower minimums with
a stepdown fix. The LOC trapezoids are quite narrow in close, so such a low MDA
is possible at a place where it is flat, close in. The MDA in theory could be
as low as 250 feet if there were no obstacles higher than the TDZ elevation and
the addition of the basic 230 feet of required obstacle clearance to the MSL
value of the TDZ results in a number ending in 20-foot increments so it doesn't
need to be rounded up.

There's no stepdown fix inside the FAF. The FAF is at an NDB 4.1 miles
from the runway (MAP). The FAF altitude is 1500' (MSL). AGL at the FAF is
not charted (JEPP).

They do have HIRL, ALS and PAPI. Can you get lower minimums with the
addition of lighting?

Lower visibility, but not lower MDA or DA/H.
