SF 2704 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Private sale authorization of certain tax-forfeited land that borders public water

This bill (SF 2704) authorizes Sibley County to privately sell a specific 0.35-acre parcel of tax-forfeited land bordering High Island Lake, instead of following standard public auction requirements. The land, precisely described in the bill, is located in Government Lot 3, Section 27, Township 114 North, Range 28 West. Sibley County must determine that returning this land to private ownership best serves its land management interests, and the sale must use an attorney general-approved deed. This is a targeted authorization for one specific parcel, not a broad policy change affecting multiple properties.
