Transportation economic development infrastructure program funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 1173 appropriates $5 million from state bond proceeds to fund grants under Minnesota's existing Transportation Economic Development Infrastructure Program (Minnesota Statutes § 116J.436). The bill authorizes the Commissioner of Management and Budget to issue up to $5 million in state bonds to provide this funding, following established bond procedures under Minnesota law. This funding directly supports local transportation infrastructure projects eligible under the program, which typically benefit municipalities and regional planning organizations. The bill does not create new policy but allocates specific funding for an existing program.
