Two Area Projects Part Of Governor's Bonding Proposal

Minnesota's Governor is recommending two projects in Koochiching County be approved for funding as part of a nearly one-billion dollar bonding bill.

Mark Dayton's list of projects includes two-million dollars towards a new airport terminal at the International Falls airport.

He's also supporting an $8.5 million commitment toward construction of sanitary sewage treatment facilities for areas in and around Voyageurs National Park and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness areas.

Legislators will debate the bill next month.
