This bill, H.F. No. 1729, introduced in the 94th session of the Minnesota House of Representatives, authorizes St. Louis County to sell certain tax-forfeited land through a private sale rather than the usual public sale process required by Minnesota law. The bill specifies that:

• The land in question is located in St. Louis County and is described in detail.
• The sale must be conducted in a form approved by the attorney general, who may make corrections to the land description.
• The county has determined that its land management interests would be best served by returning the land to private ownership.

In summary, this legislation provides an exception to standard tax-forfeited land sale procedures, allowing St. Louis County to conduct a private sale of specific parcels.
