Purpose of the Bill

This bill aims to improve transportation infrastructure in Burnsville, Minnesota, by funding the reconstruction project at the interchange of Trunk Highway 13 and Nicollet Avenue.

Main Provisions

  • Funding Appropriation: The bill allocates $22,250,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. This funding is designated for the planning, design, right-of-way acquisition, engineering, and construction of improvements to the interchange. The funds are intended for enhancements that include grade separation and other measures to increase capacity and safety.

  • Bond Issuance: The bill authorizes the sale and issuance of state bonds to generate the necessary funds for this project. There are two types of bonds mentioned:

    • General Obligation Bonds: Up to $22,250,000 will be issued for the portion of the project eligible under general obligation funding.
    • Trunk Highway Bonds: Similarly, up to $22,250,000 will be issued for the project elements eligible under trunk highway funding.

Significant Changes

  • The bill introduces the authorization for issuing both general obligation bonds and trunk highway bonds specifically for this transportation project. This involves selling state bonds to finance the work needed at the interchange, which may affect state finances and budget allocation for infrastructure projects.
