AI Summary

This bill appropriates $25,000,000 from state bond proceeds to the Metropolitan Council for a grant to Three Rivers Park District to improve the regional trail system in Hennepin County. Specifically, the funding will support a comprehensive trail network project that involves designing, constructing, reconstructing, and extending the useful life of 52 miles of regional trails. The project breaks down into three main components: constructing 10.7 miles of new regional trails, reconstructing 11.4 miles of existing trails, and applying life-extension treatments to 30.2 miles of trails. To finance this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $25,000,000, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state Constitution. The bill will take effect the day after it receives final legislative approval, enabling the Three Rivers Park District to proceed with the regional trail system improvements.
