Bill > SF1442

This bill appropriates $3,750,000 from state bond proceeds to the Public Facilities Authority to provide a grant to the city of Litchfield for a sewer separation infrastructure project. The grant will specifically fund the design, construction, and equipment needed to isolate industrial process water from sanitary waste at the city's sewer connection point with its wastewater treatment facility. To finance this appropriation, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $3,750,000, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions. The bill aims to improve the city's wastewater infrastructure by creating a clear separation between industrial and sanitary waste streams, which can help improve treatment efficiency and environmental protection. The bill will become effective immediately after it is enacted, allowing the city to proceed with its infrastructure improvement project.
