Sand Hill River Watershed District flood hazard mitigation bond issue and appropriation

This bill appropriates $1.5 million from state bonds to fund flood hazard mitigation for the Sand Hill River Watershed District. The funds will specifically replace capital pumping equipment used to manage water levels between two lakes in the watershed. The state will issue bonds to cover the cost, following standard bond procedures under Minnesota law. The project directly affects the Sand Hill River Watershed District, a local government entity managing flood control infrastructure in that region.
