AI Summary

This bill provides $200 million in funding for the Minnesota Department of Transportation to construct, reconstruct, and improve trunk highways (state roads).

The commissioner of transportation is authorized to use up to 17 percent of the funds for program delivery. The commissioner of management and budget will sell and issue state bonds up to $200 million, following established state statutes and constitutional guidelines. The bond proceeds will be deposited into the trunk highway fund's bond proceeds account, with the exception of accrued interest and any premium from the bond sales.
