This bill amends the appropriation for the Heartland State Trail in Becker County, specifically updating the funding details outlined in Laws 2023, chapter 72, article 1, section 7, subdivision 18. The amendment allocates $550,000 for the construction of a trail segment between Detroit Lakes and Frazee. Additionally, it specifies that any remaining funds will be used for environmental review, preliminary engineering, and design of the Heartland Trail, which includes segments from the west Becker County line to Detroit Lakes, Park Rapids to Osage, and from Osage to Frazee.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new provision for the environmental review, predesign, design, and construction of a paved multiple-use trail that will connect Itasca State Park to the Heartland State Trail. This trail will begin from the park contact station, extend to the park's southeast boundary, and include a Phase 1 tunnel under marked U.S. Highway 71, continuing for approximately two miles. This amendment is in addition to previous appropriations made in Laws 2017 and 2020.
