Hennepin County regional trail system improvements bond issue and appropriation

This bill appropriates $25 million in state bond funds to improve Hennepin County's regional trail system. The funds will be used by the Three Rivers Park District to build 10.7 miles of new trails, reconstruct 11.4 miles of existing trails, and extend the life of 30.2 miles of current trails. The money comes from state bonds sold under Minnesota's bond laws, with the project directly benefiting Hennepin County residents who use the regional trail network. The bill authorizes the sale of bonds to cover these trail improvements, effective upon final enactment.
