AI Summary

This bill provides funding and authorization for rehabilitating two specific segments of the Casey Jones State Trail in Minnesota. The legislation appropriates $3,150,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of natural resources to engineer, reconstruct, and rehabilitate two trail segments: the first three miles east from the Pipestone Trailhead (including the trailhead itself) and the Currie Loop segment. To finance this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $3,150,000, following the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bonds will be sold according to standard state bonding protocols, which typically involve specific terms and conditions for repayment. The bill becomes effective immediately after its final enactment, allowing for prompt implementation of the trail rehabilitation project. This funding will support improvements to the Casey Jones State Trail, which is likely a recreational trail used for activities like walking, hiking, or cycling.
