Bill > SF1255

This bill appropriates $8,000,000 from the state transportation fund bond proceeds to the commissioner of transportation for a specific infrastructure project in Eveleth, Minnesota. The funding will support the Progress Parkway project, which includes predesign, design, engineering, environmental analysis, land acquisition, construction, and reconstruction of a roadway. The project aims to improve intersections and realign and extend the road from U.S. Highway 53 and St. Louis County State-Aid Highway 142 to Trunk Highway 37 and Station 44 Road. This appropriation is in addition to a previous funding allocation for the same project in a 2023 law. The bill also authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $8,000,000 to fund the project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. The bill would become effective the day after its final enactment.
