HF 1570 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Sale or lease of boathouse sites at Soudan Underground Mine State Park authorized.

HF 1570 authorizes the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to sell or renew leases for boathouse sites at Soudan Underground Mine State Park. It allows current lessees to renew leases for life (with limited transfers to close family) or purchase the sites, capping lease rates at 50% of market value. The bill directly affects existing boathouse lessees at the park, modifying how they can maintain or transfer their sites under amended rules. Key provisions include lifetime lease terms, strict transfer restrictions to third-degree relatives, and annual market-rate adjustments. The bill amends existing law (Laws 2000, ch. 486, §4) to formalize these terms for the park's boathouse sites.
