Mankato Riverfront Park improvements bond issue and appropriation

This bill appropriates $1.8 million from state bond proceeds to fund specific improvements at Mankato's Riverfront Park. It directly affects the city of Mankato by authorizing grants for designing, constructing, and equipping the Vetter Stone Amphitheater and replacing the park's boat launch. The state would sell bonds up to $1.8 million under standard bonding procedures to cover these costs. The funds are restricted to these two physical projects within the park, with no broader policy changes beyond the park enhancements. The bill requires no additional local funding or voter approval.
