Bill > HF1942

This bill provides $12,000,000 in state bond funding to the city of Brooklyn Park specifically for the predesign, design, construction, and equipment of a new water tower in the city's biotech innovation district. The water tower is intended to provide water storage, water service, and fire suppression capabilities for the area. The commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to the $12,000,000 amount, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes sections 16A.631 to 16A.675 and in alignment with the Minnesota Constitution. The bill's provisions will take effect immediately after final enactment, enabling the city to proceed with the water infrastructure project. This type of legislation is common for local infrastructure improvements, where state bonds are used to fund specific municipal projects that have broader economic or public service benefits.
