Minnetonka; Opus Public Space project funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 720 appropriates $15 million from state bond proceeds to fund the Opus Public Space project in Minnetonka. The bill directs the state to provide a grant to Minnetonka for acquiring property, designing, constructing, and equipping a public gathering space with a plaza, parking, trails, and visitor infrastructure near the Southwest Light Rail Transit Opus station. It authorizes the state to issue up to $15 million in bonds to cover this funding, following Minnesota’s bond sale procedures. The project is separate from a prior 2023 appropriation for the same purpose.
