Anoka County Rice Creek Regional Trail funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 717 allocates $6.75 million from state bond proceeds to Anoka County for a 1.75-mile segment of the Rice Creek Regional Trail in Circle Pines. The funds will cover construction of two pedestrian bridges, a boardwalk, solar lighting, and interpretive stations along the trail. The state will issue bonds up to $6.75 million to finance this project under Minnesota's bond authorization laws. This bill directly affects Anoka County's trail development and local residents who use the completed trail segment.
