Bill > HF1661

This bill provides $3,500,000 in state bond funding to the township of Thomson for critical infrastructure improvements, specifically targeting the replacement of aging municipal infrastructure. The funding will be used to upgrade water distribution systems, improve sanitary sewer infrastructure, and reconstruct streets. The Public Facilities Authority will administer the grant, and the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds to finance the project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes sections 16A.631 to 16A.675 and in accordance with the Minnesota Constitution. The bonds will be issued up to the amount of $3,500,000, and the bill becomes effective immediately after its final enactment. This legislation is designed to help a small township address critical infrastructure needs that may be beyond its current financial capacity, using state-level bonding to support local infrastructure improvements.
