Bill > HF2026

This bill extends the availability of several parks and trails fund grants for various Minnesota counties and cities. Specifically, the bill provides grant availability extensions to June 30, 2027, for projects including the Cannon Valley Trail in Goodhue County, the Beaver Island Trail in Stearns County, the Bluffs Traverse Trail in Winona, the Jay C. Hormel Nature Center in Austin, the Spirit Mountain Recreation Area in Duluth, and the Waabizheshikana/Marten Trail in Duluth. These extensions apply to grants originally appropriated in fiscal years 2023 and 2024 from the parks and trails fund, allowing the local governments more time to complete their respective trail and recreational area projects. The bill will become effective the day after it is formally enacted, providing these municipalities with additional time to utilize their previously allocated grant funding for park and trail development.
