SF 3384 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Notice of entry for noxious weed inspections requirement

This bill requires inspectors to mail written notice to property owners before entering private land for noxious weed inspections. It amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 18.79, subdivision 3, to mandate this mailed notice as a prerequisite for entry. The change directly affects property owners by giving them advance written notification before inspections occur. Inspectors retain authority to enter without owner consent for enforcement under sections 18.76-18.91, but must now provide mailed notice first. The bill focuses solely on the procedural requirement for notification, not on the inspection outcomes or policy goals.
