making an appropriation for rail trail project matching funds.
SB 35 proposed a state appropriation to provide matching funds for a specific rail trail project. This bill would have directly affected the project's developers and local communities by enabling them to access state funds to supplement private or federal contributions. However, the bill was deemed "Inexpedient to Legislate" under Senate Rule 3-23 on October 31, 2025, meaning it did not advance to become law. As a funding measure, it was procedural in nature with no enacted policy changes.
