Bill > HF730

This bill provides $7,000,000 in state bond funding for the city of Blue Earth to construct a new reverse osmosis water filtration plant. Reverse osmosis is a water purification process that removes contaminants by pushing water through a semipermeable membrane, which helps improve water quality. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds to finance the project, following the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The funding is specifically designated as a grant from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority, which will then transfer the money to the city. The bill will take effect immediately after it is enacted, allowing the city to move forward with the water filtration plant construction. The appropriation reflects a commitment to improving municipal water infrastructure and ensuring clean water access for the residents of Blue Earth.
