Bill > HF198

This bill appropriates $14 million in state bond proceeds to the Minnesota Department of Transportation for the Duluth Airport Authority to construct a new air traffic control tower base building at the Duluth International Airport. The funding will cover design, construction, furnishing, and equipment for the new facility, which will include office spaces, equipment rooms, workspaces, and logistical support areas. The project also encompasses site preparation, including demolishing obsolete buildings, installing utilities and a stormwater retention system, and replacing existing fuel tanks. A portion of the appropriation will be used to match federal funding for the project. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $14 million to provide the funding, following specific state statutes and constitutional provisions related to bond issuance. The bill becomes effective the day after it is enacted into law.
