This bill appropriates $318,000 from the arts and cultural heritage fund for the fiscal year 2026 to support the development of the Heroes and Heritage Interpretive Trail Loop. The funds will be granted to the Dakota County Historical Society, which will be responsible for designing and constructing the trail along existing paved paths in the cities of South St. Paul, West St. Paul, and Inver Grove Heights.

The bill emphasizes the importance of preserving and promoting local heritage through the creation of this interpretive trail, which aims to enhance community engagement and education about the area's history. The appropriation is intended to facilitate the collaboration between the Minnesota Historical Society and the Dakota County Historical Society in bringing this project to fruition.
