This bill appropriates $10,000,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of transportation for a grant to the city of Minneapolis aimed at constructing ADA-accessible facilities in the public right-of-way. The funding is contingent upon the commissioner of management and budget determining that sufficient resources from nonstate sources have been committed to complete the project.
Additionally, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the amount of $10,000,000 to provide the necessary funding. The provisions for the bond sale will follow the guidelines set forth in Minnesota Statutes and the Minnesota Constitution. The bill will take effect the day after it is enacted.
