HF 1714 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Fairmont; street reconstruction funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 1714 appropriates $10,538,000 from state bond proceeds to fund street reconstruction projects in Fairmont, Minnesota. The bill directly affects the city of Fairmont by providing funds to rebuild Kot Street (from Charles Street to South Prairie Avenue) and extend Fairlakes Avenue (to connect Woodland Avenue with Lake Avenue), including right-of-way acquisition and utility work. The key mechanism authorizes the state to issue up to $10.5 million in bonds under Minnesota Statutes sections 16A.631-16A.675 to cover these costs, exempting the appropriation from standard budget rules. This is a funding bill for specific infrastructure improvements, effective upon enactment.
