SF 2274 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Constitutional amendment proposal to allow owners of agricultural land, real property that is both nonhomesteaded and noncommercial, or small business property to vote on property tax questions where the property is located

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to allow owners of specific properties to vote on local property tax questions where their property is located. It directly affects owners of agricultural land, nonhomesteaded noncommercial real property, and small business properties (commercial/industrial properties where the owner operates a small business as defined by law). The key provision would permit these owners to register and vote in the precinct where their property is situated for local tax levies or bond referendums, rather than requiring voting based on their primary residence. If approved by voters in 2026, this change would take effect and be implemented through new rules by the secretary of state.
