The bill appropriates a total of $68,500,000 for improvements to marked Trunk Highway 13 and associated local roads in the cities of Savage and Burnsville. Specifically, it allocates $18,400,000 from the bond proceeds fund for grants to these cities for property and easement acquisition, final design, and construction of intersection improvements at various locations along Trunk Highway 13. Additionally, it designates $50,100,000 from the trunk highway fund for similar purposes, including property acquisition and construction of improvements along the highway.
To fund these appropriations, the bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds, with the amounts specified for each section. The bond sale for the first appropriation is capped at $18,400,000, while the second is capped at $50,100,000. The proceeds from these bond sales will be deposited into the respective bond proceeds accounts, ensuring that the funds are available for the planned improvements. Both sections of the bill will take effect the day following final enactment.
