SF 1303 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Report requirement on trunk highway project cultural resources expenditures

SF 1303 requires the Minnesota Department of Transportation to submit a detailed report by January 31, 2026, on spending related to historic preservation, archaeology, and other cultural resources during trunk highway projects from fiscal years 2020 to 2027. The report must include yearly expenditure totals, comparisons of budgeted vs. actual spending, and project-level breakdowns by resource type (e.g., historic properties, burial grounds). A one-time $10,000 appropriation from the trunk highway fund covers the report's preparation. This bill does not change existing spending rules but mandates transparency about current cultural resources expenditures for legislative oversight.
