HF 1199 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Aitkin County; private sale of certain tax-forfeited land authorized.

HF 1199 authorizes Aitkin County to sell specific tax-forfeited lands through private sale instead of public auction. The bill targets two small parcels (0.1 acres total) in Hill City Realty Cos Fourth Addition, described by legal lot numbers and location details. It allows the county to bypass standard public sale rules under Minnesota Statutes chapter 282 for these defined parcels, requiring attorney general approval for the sale documents. The county states this approach better serves its land management interests by returning the land to private ownership. This change directly affects Aitkin County's ability to manage and sell these specific properties.
