SF742 (Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026))

Use of purple paint authorization in lieu of signage prohibiting trespassing

Related bill: HF1303

AI Generated Summary

The bill SF No 742 proposes that in addition to the existing method of posting "no trespassing" signs, property owners in Minnesota can now use purple paint as a legal means to warn against trespassing. The paint must be applied to trees around the boundary of the property, with specific guidelines on how it should be displayed. This provides an alternative and potentially more visible method for indicating private land to deter outdoor recreational trespassing.
