Counties Transit Improvement Board

The board was responsible for granting the funds under its control to major transit infrastructure projects around the Twin Cities.

[1] In 2016-2017 a series of events led to the formal vote by members of the CTIB to dissolve the board effective September, 2017.

[4] Minnesota State House File 2800, introduced on February 12, 2008, proposed a 0.5% sales tax for the seven counties that make up the Minneapolis–St.

Paul Urbanized Area: Hennepin, Ramsey, Dakota, Anoka, Washington, Carver, and Scott counties.

The CTIB has independent bonding authority, secured by future revenues of the transit tax, and all counties that join the Board are legally bound to keep collecting revenues if they choose to leave the board, until all obligations made while they were members are repaid.
