Newport water and sewer infrastructure bond issue and appropriation

This bill appropriates $5,162,000 from state bond proceeds to fund water, sewer, and storm sewer infrastructure work in Newport. It directly affects Newport residents by authorizing the replacement of aging systems and reconstruction of streets on specific routes, including 3rd Avenue between 14th and 12th Streets and 2nd Avenue between 15th and 11th Streets. The funds will cover predesign, design, and construction for infrastructure removal, replacement, and street reconstruction in the defined project area. The state will issue bonds up to the appropriation amount to finance these improvements, with the project effective upon final enactment.
