Bill > HF1651

This bill provides for the transfer of $10,000,000 from the general fund to the active transportation account in fiscal year 2026. The active transportation account is a special revenue fund designed to support non-motorized transportation projects, such as pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. The bill then appropriates those same funds to the Minnesota Department of Transportation to provide grants to the city of Anoka for a specific project: designing, engineering, analyzing, acquiring land, and constructing a pedestrian bridge over the Rum River Dam. The appropriation is specifically earmarked for the city of Anoka and will be available until June 30, 2029, giving the city several years to complete the pedestrian bridge project. The bill aims to enhance transportation infrastructure by supporting an active transportation project that will improve pedestrian connectivity in the Anoka area.
