AI Generated Summary

This bill, H.F. No. 1251, introduced in the Minnesota House of Representatives, appropriates $16.5 million from the bond proceeds account in the trunk highway fund for improvements to the Trunk Highway 65 and Bunker Lake Boulevard Northeast interchange in Ham Lake, Anoka County. The funding will cover preliminary engineering, environmental documentation, final design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction of intersection improvements, including related frontage and backage roads.

The bill also authorizes the sale and issuance of state bonds worth up to $16.5 million to fund the project. These bonds will be issued by the commissioner of management and budget following the requirements of Minnesota Statutes (Sections 167.50 to 167.52) and the Minnesota Constitution (Article XIV, Section 11). The funds from the bonds will be deposited into the bond proceeds account in the trunk highway fund.

Notably, this appropriation does not require a non-state contribution, meaning the project will be fully funded by state-issued bonds.
