Transportation Economic Development
(TED) Overview
• Collaboration between MnDOT and DEED for
transportation infrastructure improvement projects
that support economic development
• Competitive project selection process to identify and
support projects that assist development of a new or
expanding business.
– Target industries: manufacturing, technology, warehousing and
distribution, research and development, agricultural processing,
bioscience, tourism/recreation, industrial park development
• Projects must also improve the statewide
transportation network
25
TED Program Goals
• To address both economic and transportation system objectives
of the state
• To create and preserve “head-of-household” jobs
• To leverage private and local investment in public infrastructure
improvements
• To promote collaborative and innovative partnerships among
public and private sector stakeholders
26
TED Program History
• Two solicitations so far: (2010 and 2012)
• Selected 24 projects – of 70 applications
• Provided $59 million in TED grants
• Leveraged over $100 million in other public and private
financing
• Supported an estimated 10,000 permanent, well-paying
jobs
27
State Road Construction Change
Requests
• $338 million in total spending in FY 2014-15
– $263 million of federal funds from new federal
authorization, MAP- 21
• No net fiscal impact – reflects both additional federal revenue
and expenditures
– $75 million in additional state funds in FY 2014
• One-time appropriation from existing Trunk Highway Fund
balance
28
State Road Construction
Appropriation
• $125.4 million in FY 2014 and $137.6 million in FY
2015 (biennial total of $263 million)
• Increases state road construction appropriation to
make available federal funds from MAP-21
• No net fiscal impact - reflects both additional
federal funds and additional expenditures
29
State Road Construction
Infrastructure Investments
• $75 million one-time appropriation in FY 2014
• Funds would be used for:
–
–
–
–
Better Roads program
Other infrastructure needs (e.g. drainage structures)
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) investments
Corridor Investment Management Strategy (CIMS)
• Funded from existing available fund balance in
Trunk Highway Fund
30
Operations and Maintenance
Increase
• $5 million annual increase to operations and
maintenance budget activity, or 2%.
• To help offset inflation in commodities like salt,
sand, bituminous and gasoline.
• Inflation has been over 3% per year since 2005, and
that trend is projected to continue.
31
Economic Recovery Funds
• Extends authority to spend existing or new
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
funds to the end of FY 2016
• Currently anticipate $1 million of additional Trunk
Highway Funds and $1 million of Federal Funds
related to passenger rail activities
32
State Airports Fund Decrease
• Reduces appropriations by $500,000 in both FY
2014 and 2015 (biennial total of $1 million)
• Eliminates negative fund balance currently forecast
(as of November 2012)
• Reductions in grants to local airports
33
Regional Development Commission
(RDC) State Planning Grants Increase
• 12 Regional Development Commissions (RDCs) in
Minnesota
• Partners in the Area Transportation Partnership
(ATP) process
– Involved in soliciting and evaluating projects
– Seek to integrate regional priorities in planning and project
selection
– Key partners in supporting MnDOT’s planning efforts
through public involvement activities
34
Regional Development Commission
(RDC) State Planning Grants Increase
• $600,000 is currently appropriated annually to RDCs,
from Program Planning and Delivery budget activity
– Since 1997, each RDC has received $50,000 annually
• Change item would increase these grants to $900,000
annually, or $75,000 per RDC (50% increase)
– In recent years, RDCs have assumed additional
responsibilities in supporting multimodal and interdisciplinary
planning at the regional and state levels
– $50,000 in 1997 is equal to roughly $72,000 in 2012 due to
inflation
35
• Grade Crossing Safety Account
– Remaining balance in account is transferred to Trunk
Highway Fund at the end of each biennium. Currently
this is done annually.
• ARMER Maintenance (via DPS)
– Increases the maintenance budget for ARMER by
$600,000 in FY 2014, and by $1,000,000 in FY 2015 and
beyond
– Would cover increased level of service through software
subscription agreement with Motorola
