SF1619

This bill, S.F. No. 1619, proposes appropriating $2,500,000 from the state bond proceeds fund to the City of Sturgeon Lake for paving several local roads. The funds will be distributed through the Commissioner of Employment and Economic Development as a grant to the city. The roads to be paved include Timberline Road, Second Street, Lind Street, Cemetery Road, Deer Drive, Birch Lane, Logan Drive, Aspen Lake Forest Road, Greenbay Road, and First Avenue.

The appropriation does not require a nonstate match, meaning the city does not need to provide additional local funding. To generate the necessary funds, the Commissioner of Management and Budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $2,500,000, per the procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution.
