HF 3991 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

St. Louis County private sales of land authorized.

This bill authorizes St. Louis County to sell two specific parcels of land through private sales instead of public auctions. The first parcel consists of tax-forfeited land, while the second includes county-owned fee lands in Brookston. The legislation requires that all land conveyances use forms approved by the attorney general, who may correct any errors in the land descriptions. St. Louis County determined that private sales would best serve its interests, with the tax-forfeited land sale specifically aimed at resolving a structure encroachment issue. This change allows the county to bypass standard competitive bidding requirements for these particular properties.
