SF 2198 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain limitations establishment on use of interest or investment income from transportation revenue

SF 2198 amends Minnesota law to require that interest or investment earnings from transportation revenue must be used exclusively for transportation purposes. It applies to local governments (counties, cities, townships) and specifically targets counties including Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott, and Washington. The bill defines "transportation revenue source" to include highway funds, transportation project grants, related taxes/fees (like vehicle registration fees), and reserves from these sources. This amendment to Minnesota Statutes sections 162.16 and 473.13 ensures that investment income from these funds cannot be diverted to non-transportation uses.
