AI Summary

This bill provides $2.8 million in state bond funding specifically for a highway reconstruction project in Sibley County, Minnesota. The funds will be used for comprehensive highway improvements on County State-Aid Highway 6, which runs from the city of Henderson to its intersection with County State-Aid Highway 5.
