Requires disclosure of original purchase price for land to be sold to a county, county agriculture development board, or municipality for farmland preservation purposes.
This bill requires sellers of farmland or development easements to disclose their original purchase price to the buying county, agriculture board, or municipality *before* the sale, when the land is being preserved for agricultural use. It directly affects individuals or businesses selling property for farmland preservation, mandating they share the price they paid for the land. The key provision is a pre-sale disclosure requirement for all sellers, ensuring transparency about the land's original cost to the government entity acquiring it. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
