Bill > HF448

This bill provides funding and authorizes state bonds for water treatment plant improvements in the city of Lafayette, Minnesota. Specifically, the bill appropriates $1,893,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority, which will be used as a grant to the city of Lafayette to construct and install a reverse osmosis system and associated improvements at their existing water treatment plant. The primary goals of these improvements are to address high levels of chloride in the city's wastewater and prevent additional disinfection product violations in the city's drinking water. To fund this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $1,893,000, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bill aims to help the city of Lafayette upgrade its water treatment infrastructure to meet water quality standards and improve public health.
