MN SF3283

Removes language limiting apportionment of tax-forfeited land sale proceeds to only state and municipal subdivision general funds, replacing it with distribution to taxing districts and former property owners.

Adds the former owner of the parcel at the time of forfeiture as a recipient of proceeds from sale or rental of tax-forfeited land.

Requires any balance remaining after payment of public improvements, response actions, special assessments, canceled taxes, and county set-asides to be returned to the former owner of the forfeited property.

Maintains existing provisions allowing county boards to set aside up to 30 percent of remaining receipts for forest development and up to 20 percent for county parks or recreational areas.

Becomes effective the day following final enactment.
