Summary
The bill makes the Minnesota Department of Transportation responsible for paying utility relocation costs when a state transportation project forces a move, and it creates fast‑track permitting rules for those relocations. It applies to public, private and cooperative utility owners whose facilities run on trunk highways, and it adds new coordination and notice requirements. The goal is to streamline project delivery and ensure utilities are not left bearing the full cost of moves.
