South Dakota is providing $8 million to the Ellsworth Development Authority to pay for road improvements and infrastructure upgrades needed because of construction at Ellsworth Air Force Base. The money can be used for road repairs, widening, safety improvements, engineering studies, and related work to handle the impacts of the base construction activity. The authority must report annually on how the funds are spent and cannot use more than 3 percent of the money for administrative costs.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
This change converts the bill from its introduced form to its enrolled (final passed) form, adding standard legislative processing documentation and signature pages without altering the substantive appropriation of $8,000,000 for Ellsworth Air Force Base roadway improvements or any of the bill's core provisions.
