Bill > HF972

This bill provides $21,208,000 in bond proceeds to the Public Facilities Authority for capital improvements to the Lakewood water treatment plant in Duluth, Minnesota. Specifically, the funding will support design and construction of various infrastructure upgrades, including rehabilitation of the granular infiltration system, roof repairs, and improvements to water reservoirs and pump stations that are intended to support ongoing operations. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to the appropriated amount, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bonds will be used to finance the water treatment plant improvements, which are aimed at maintaining and enhancing the facility's infrastructure and operational capabilities. The bill becomes effective immediately after final enactment, allowing the city of Duluth to proceed with the planned capital improvements to its water treatment infrastructure.
