Road construction business mitigation grant program creation

This bill creates a grant program to help small businesses in Minnesota that suffer financial losses due to nearby road construction projects. It requires the commissioner of employment and economic development to set up a system where local organizations distribute one-time payments to businesses with fewer than 25 employees located within 300 feet of a construction site. These grants can only be used for payroll, operating costs, or facility expenses, and funding comes from allocating one percent of each eligible project's total budget. Additionally, the bill mandates that transportation authorities designate a business liaison to communicate with affected owners about project impacts and inform them about the available grant assistance.
