The bill appropriates $8,900,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority for a grant to the city of Waseca. This funding is designated for the design, construction, and engineering related to improvements and replacement of the city's sanitary sewer infrastructure. The aim is to reduce inflow and infiltration into the system while increasing its conveyance capacity, which includes the reconstruction of the Nelson Lift Station. Additionally, the appropriation covers the reconstruction of streets, roadways, sidewalks, and other infrastructure within the project areas, and it does not require a nonstate match.
To finance this appropriation, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the amount of $8,900,000, following the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the Minnesota Constitution. The effective date of this section is the day following its final enactment.
