The bill proposes an appropriation of $8,190,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of natural resources for the development of the Mill Towns State Trail. This funding will cover land acquisition, predesign, design, and construction of the trail, which will connect Riverside Park in Northfield to the Waterford Historic Bridge in Waterford Township.

To facilitate this appropriation, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the same amount, following the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The provisions of this bill will take effect the day after it is enacted.
