SF1236

Senate Bill No. 1236 is a legislative proposal that aims to allocate funds specifically for the reconstruction and upgrade of street and other publicly owned infrastructure in the city of Excelsior, Minnesota. This funding, amounting to $13,287,000, will be sourced from state bonds. The bill outlines that the money will be used for various aspects of infrastructure improvement, including the planning, design, engineering, acquisition of right of way, construction, and other necessary upgrades. These upgrades involve water mains, storm and sanitary sewers, curbs, gutters, and are in line with the city’s Pavement Management Plan. The bill also stipulates that costs incurred by the city for these projects prior to the passing of this bill will be included in the non-state funding match requirements. To facilitate this, the bill authorizes the sale and issuance of state bonds to provide the necessary funding.
