  1.23     84.0273 [CORRECTION ESTABLISHMENT OF BOUNDARY LINES 
  1.24  RELATING TO CERTAIN STATE LANDHOLDINGS.] 
  1.25     In order to correct errors in legal descriptions resolve 
  1.26  boundary line issues affecting the ownership interests of the 
  1.27  state and adjacent landowners, the commissioner of natural 
  1.28  resources may, in the name of the state upon terms the 
  1.29  commissioner deems appropriate, convey, without monetary 
  1.30  consideration, by a boundary line agreement, quitclaim deed, or 
  1.31  management agreement in such form as the attorney general 
  1.32  approves, such rights, titles, and interests of the state in 
  2.1   state lands for such rights, titles and interests in adjacent 
  2.2   lands as are necessary for the purpose of correcting legal 
  2.3   descriptions of establishing boundaries.  A notice of the 
  2.4   proposed conveyance and a brief statement of the reason therefor 
  2.5   shall be published once in the State Register by the 
  2.6   commissioner between 15 and 30 days prior to conveyance.  The 
  2.7   provisions of this section are not intended to replace or 
  2.8   supersede laws relating to land exchange or disposal of surplus 
  2.9   state property. 
  2.10     Sec. 2.  Minnesota Statutes 1996, section 92.06, 
  2.11  subdivision 1, is amended to read: 
  2.12     Subdivision 1.  [TERMS.] (a) The terms of payment on the 
  2.13  sale of state public lands must be as follows:  The purchaser 
  2.14  shall pay in cash at the time of sale the appraised value of all 
  2.15  timber and costs determined by the commissioner to be associated 
  2.16  with the sale including survey, appraisal, publication, deed 
  2.17  tax, filing fee, and similar costs.  At least 15 percent of the 
  2.18  purchase price of the land exclusive of timber and associated 
  2.19  costs must be paid in cash at the time of sale.  The balance of 
  2.20  the purchase price must be paid in no more than 20 equal annual 
  2.21  installments.  Payments must be made by June 1 each year 
  2.22  following the year in which the purchase was made, with interest 
  2.23  at the rate in effect at the time of sale, calculated under this 
  2.24  subdivision, on the unpaid balances.  Any installment of 
  2.25  principal or interest may be paid in advance, but part payment 
  2.26  of an installment will not be accepted.  For the purpose of 
  2.27  computing interest, any installment of principal not paid on 
  2.28  June 1 shall be credited on the following June 1.  The purchaser 
  2.29  may pay the balance due on a sale within 30 days of the sale 
  2.30  with no interest due. 
  2.31     (b) Interest on unpaid balances must be computed as annual 
  2.32  simple interest.  The rate of interest must be based on average 
  2.33  effective interest rates on mortgage loans as provided in 
  2.34  paragraph (c). 
  2.35     (c) On or before December 31 of each year, the commissioner 
  2.36  of natural resources shall determine the rate from the average 
  3.1   effective interest rate on loans closed using the office of 
  3.2   thrift supervision series, formerly the federal home loan bank 
  3.3   board series, or its successor agency, for the most recent 
  3.4   calendar month, reported on a monthly basis in the latest 
  3.5   statistical release of the board of governors of the federal 
  3.6   reserve system.  This yield, rounded to the nearest quarter of 
  3.7   one percent, is the annual interest rate for sales of state land 
  3.8   during the succeeding calendar year. 
  3.9      (d) For state land sales in calendar year 1993 after July 
  3.10  1, 1993, the rate is eight percent, which is the September 1992 
  3.11  average from the office of thrift supervision series, rounded to 
  3.12  the nearest quarter of one percent. 
  3.13     Sec. 3.  Minnesota Statutes 1996, section 92.06, 
  3.14  subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
  3.15     Subd. 4.  [IMPROVEMENTS, WHEN PAYMENT NOT NECESSARY.] If a 
  3.16  person has made improvements to the land and if:  (1) the 
  3.17  commissioner believes that person settled the land in good faith 
  3.18  as homestead land under the laws of the United States before it 
  3.19  was certified to the state, or if (2) the improvements were 
  3.20  lawfully made by that person as a lessee of the state, or (3) 
  3.21  the commissioner determines, based on clear and convincing 
  3.22  evidence provided by the person, that the improvements were made 
  3.23  by the person as an inadvertent trespasser, then the value of 
  3.24  the improvements must be separately appraised and, if the 
  3.25  settler or, lessee, or inadvertent trespasser purchases the 
  3.26  land, the settler or, lessee, or inadvertent trespasser is not 
  3.27  required to pay for the improvements.  If another person 
  3.28  purchases the land, that person must pay the owner of the 
  3.29  improvements, in addition to all other required payments, the 
  3.30  appraised amount for the improvements.  Payment for improvements 
  3.31  must be made within 15 days of the auction sale, either in cash 
  3.32  or upon terms and conditions agreeable to the owner of the 
  3.33  improvements.  If payment for improvements is not made in cash, 
  3.34  and if there is no agreement between the parties within 15 days 
  3.35  of the auction sale, the commissioner may: 
  3.36     (1) sell the property to the second highest qualified 
  4.1   bidder if that bidder submitted to the commissioner's 
  4.2   representative, at the auction sale, a written request to buy 
  4.3   the property at a specified price; or 
  4.4      (2) void the sale and reoffer the property at a subsequent 
  4.5   sale. 
  4.6      This subdivision does not apply unless the owner of the 
  4.7   improvements makes a verified application to the commissioner 
  4.8   showing entitlement to the improvements before the first state 
  4.9   public sale at which the land is offered for sale.  The 
  4.10  applicant must appear at the sale and offer to purchase the land 
  4.11  for at least its appraised value including all timber on it, and 
  4.12  make the purchase if no higher bid is received.  Actions or 
  4.13  other proceedings involving the land in question begun before 
  4.14  the sale must have been completed. 
  4.15     Sec. 4.  Minnesota Statutes 1996, section 92.16, 
  4.16  subdivision 1, is amended to read: 
  4.17     Subdivision 1.  [CONTENTS; DEFAULT, RESALE.] At the time of 
  4.18  the sale the commissioner shall execute, acknowledge, and 
  4.19  deliver to the purchaser a certificate of sale, numbered and 
  4.20  made assignable, certifying the description of the land sold, 
  4.21  its quantity, the price per acre, the consideration paid and to 
  4.22  be paid, and the time and terms of payment.  A certificate must 
  4.23  not be delivered until the sum required by law to be paid at the 
  4.24  time of the sale is paid.  The sum includes costs determined by 
  4.25  the commissioner to be associated with the sale such as survey, 
  4.26  appraisal, publication, deed tax, filing fee, and similar 
  4.27  costs.  If the purchaser fails to pay the sum, the commissioner 
  4.28  may immediately reoffer the land for sale, but a bid may not be 
  4.29  accepted from the person failing to pay the original offer.  If 
  4.30  the purchaser pays in full at the time of sale, the commissioner 
  4.31  is not required to issue a certificate of sale. 
  4.32     Sec. 5.  [92.80] [PAYMENT OF TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.] 
  4.33     Subdivision 1.  [CANCELLATION OF CERTIFICATE OF SALE.] If 
  4.34  the state acquires an interest in real property prior to the 
  4.35  cancellation of a certificate of sale or upon completion of the 
  4.36  cancellation process by advertisement or court order, the state 
  5.1   must make provision to pay all taxes, interests, costs, 
  5.2   penalties, and assessments.  The commissioner of natural 
  5.3   resources must request the certificate of sale vendee to make a 
  5.4   good faith attempt to pay the debt.  If the commissioner 
  5.5   determines that the vendee is unwilling or unable to pay the 
  5.6   debt, the commissioner may pay the debt and seek redress against 
  5.7   the vendee. 
  5.8      Subd. 2.  [VOLUNTARY AND INVOLUNTARY REVERSIONS.] (a) If a 
  5.9   grantee on a certificate of sale or state deed desires the state 
  5.10  to exercise its reversionary interest in real property, the 
  5.11  grantee must pay all real estate taxes, costs, interest, 
  5.12  penalties, and assessments on the property prior to reversion. 
  5.13     (b) If a grantee on a certificate of sale or state deed 
  5.14  breaches the contractual terms of the certificate or deed, the 
  5.15  commissioner of natural resources must request the grantee to 
  5.16  make a good faith attempt to pay all real estate taxes, costs, 
  5.17  interest, penalties, and assessments on the property prior to 
  5.18  reversion.  If the commissioner determines that the grantee is 
  5.19  unwilling or unable to pay the debt, the commissioner may pay 
  5.20  the debt and seek redress against the grantee. 
  5.21     Sec. 6.  Minnesota Statutes 1996, section 94.10, 
  5.22  subdivision 2, is amended to read: 
  5.23     Subd. 2.  (a) Lands certified as surplus by the head of a 
  5.24  department or agency other than the department of natural 
  5.25  resources shall be offered for public sale by the commissioner 
  5.26  of administration as provided in this paragraph.  After 
  5.27  complying with subdivision 1 and before any public sale of 
  5.28  surplus state-owned land is made, the commissioner of 
  5.29  administration shall publish a notice thereof at least once in 
  5.30  each week for four successive weeks in a legal newspaper and 
  5.31  also in a newspaper of general distribution in the city or

  5.33  notice shall specify the time and place at which the sale will 
  5.34  commence, a general description of the lots or tracts to be 
  5.35  offered, and a general statement of the terms of sale.  Each 
  5.36  tract or lot shall be sold separately and shall be sold for not 
  6.1   less than the appraised value thereof.  Parcels remaining unsold 
  6.2   after the offering may be sold to anyone agreeing to pay the 
  6.3   appraised value thereof.  The sale shall continue until all 
  6.4   parcels are sold or until the commissioner orders a reappraisal 
  6.5   or withdraws the remaining parcels from sale.  
  6.6      (b) Lands certified as surplus by the commissioner of 
  6.7   natural resources shall be offered for public sale by the 
  6.8   commissioner of natural resources in the manner provided in 
  6.9   paragraph (a) for sales by the commissioner of administration.
