Bill > SF1

This bill appropriates $2,500,000 from the state bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development to provide a grant to the city of Brookston for developing a new campground and recreational area along the St. Louis River. The funding will support predesign, design, site preparation, and construction of the project, which will include infrastructure such as a road, utilities, green space, boat launch, and a community center. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $2,500,000 to finance the project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. Notably, this appropriation is exempt from certain standard bonding requirements, which suggests an expedited or special approval process. The bill becomes effective immediately after its final enactment, allowing the city of Brookston to proceed quickly with its recreational area development plans.
