The bill appropriates $4,000,000 from the general fund for the fiscal year 2026 to the commissioner of transportation. This funding is designated for a grant to the city of North Branch to cover the costs associated with the predesign, design, and right-of-way acquisition necessary for constructing an interchange at Interstate Highway 35 and 400th Street. The appropriation is contingent upon the commissioner of management and budget confirming that sufficient resources from nonstate sources have been secured to complete the project. This is a one-time appropriation that will remain available until the project is either completed or abandoned, in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 16A.642.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision stating that it will take effect the day after final enactment.
