The bill appropriates $18,500,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority for the city of Minnetrista to enhance its water infrastructure. This funding will support the predesign, design, construction, and equipping of essential water infrastructure improvements, including the establishment of two new municipal wells and a new water treatment plant, along with the necessary infrastructure for water transport. Notably, this appropriation does not require any nonstate contribution.
To facilitate this funding, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the amount of $18,500,000, following the guidelines set forth in Minnesota Statutes and the Minnesota Constitution. The provisions of this bill will take effect the day after it is enacted.
