Bill > SF2064

This bill provides funding and authorization for the preservation of the historic Forestville bridge in Fillmore County, Minnesota. Specifically, the bill appropriates $1,993,000 from the state bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of natural resources, which will be used as a grant to Fillmore County for the design, engineering, and construction of the bridge's rehabilitation. To finance this project, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to the appropriated amount, following established state procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes sections 16A.631 to 16A.675 and in accordance with the Minnesota Constitution. The bill's provisions will take effect the day after final enactment, enabling the county to proceed with the bridge preservation project. This type of legislative action is common for infrastructure preservation efforts, particularly for historic structures that have cultural or historical significance to local communities.
