An Act relative to non-contiguous farm land
HD 3691 allows farm owners with two or more separate land parcels (totaling at least five acres) to qualify for agricultural benefits as if the land were contiguous. To qualify, all parcels must be within a 10-mile radius of each other or located entirely within a single municipality. The bill treats these non-contiguous parcels as one continuous piece of land for eligibility purposes under the law. This change directly affects agricultural landowners seeking benefits that typically require contiguous property.
