AI Generated Summary

This bill proposes a capital investment to fund the West Central Regional Water System in Minnesota. It appropriates $9,700,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority, which will provide grants to Norman, Clay, and Polk Counties (either individually or in combination) for land acquisition, predesign, design, engineering, and construction of facilities and infrastructure for Phase 1 of the project. The goal is to build a trunk transmission pipeline and associated infrastructure to supply potable water to cities within these counties.

To finance this appropriation, the commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds totaling $9,700,000, under the authority of Minnesota Statutes (sections 16A.631 to 16A.675) and the Minnesota Constitution (article XI, sections 4 to 7).
