Bill > HF548

This bill appropriates $2,400,000 from the trunk highway bond proceeds to the Minnesota Department of Transportation for a specific infrastructure project in the city of Byron. The funding will support environmental analysis, predesign, and final design of improvements to U.S. Highway 14, specifically focusing on replacing at-grade intersections and traffic signals with grade-separated interchanges. The project will target intersections with Olmsted County State-Aid Highways 3 and 5. If any funds remain after the initial design and engineering work, they may be used for right-of-way acquisition, construction, and associated road infrastructure. To finance this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $2,400,000, following the guidelines outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bond proceeds will be deposited into the trunk highway fund, excluding accrued interest and any premium from the bond sale.
