The bill proposes an appropriation of $2,000,000 from the general fund for fiscal year 2026, specifically allocated for the construction and equipping of lighting along trails in Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park. The funds will be granted to Washington County through the Metropolitan Council, and this appropriation is designated as a one-time funding source 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 the effective date of this section will be the day following its final enactment. This ensures that the funding can be accessed promptly to facilitate the timely development of the trail lighting project.
