Bill > HF959

This bill provides $6,000,000 in state bond funding for the city of Freeport to reconstruct the intersection of Interstate Highway 94 and 1st Avenue. The appropriation covers a comprehensive project including preliminary and final design, engineering, permitting, demolishing an existing bridge, constructing a new interchange, and supporting infrastructure such as pedestrian safety improvements, public utilities, and stormwater management. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell and issue state bonds up to $6,000,000 to finance the project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes. The bill is exempt from certain standard bonding requirements, which may expedite the funding process. The funding and bonding provisions will take effect immediately after the bill is enacted, allowing the city of Freeport to proceed with the highway interchange reconstruction project.
