SF 28 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain tax-forfeited land sale requirements modification

SF 28 modifies Minnesota's rules for selling tax-forfeited land (land seized for unpaid taxes). It requires counties to transfer tax-forfeited land within state park boundaries directly to the commissioner of natural resources instead of selling it, ensuring these areas remain protected for parks. For nonconservation land with standing timber, the bill allows the commissioner to waive a 60-day notice requirement for parcels already approved for timber appraisal. These changes streamline sales processes while prioritizing state park preservation and timber management.
