SF 2584 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Condemnation of certain land in Cass County appropriation and authorizing its transfer for non consideration

This bill appropriates $250,000 for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to condemn specific land in Cass County (described as the Northwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter in Section 27, Township 145 North, Range 28 West) and cover related costs like legal fees. It authorizes the transfer of this condemned land to a federally recognized Indian Tribe without payment ("for no consideration"). The transfer is permitted after condemnation proceedings, as the DNR determined the land is not needed for natural resource purposes and returning it to Tribal ownership best serves state land management interests. The bill directly affects the specified land parcel and the receiving Indian Tribe.
