  2.17  APPLICABLE TO ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY FOR TRANSPORTATION 
  2.18  PURPOSES.] 
  2.19     Subdivision 1.  [APPLICATION.] This section applies to the 
  2.20  acquisition of property for public highways, streets, roads, 
  2.21  alleys, airports, mass transit facilities, or for other

  2.24  real property, the acquiring authority must obtain at least one 
  2.25  appraisal for the property proposed to be acquired.  In making 
  2.26  the appraisal, the appraiser must confer with one or more of the 
  2.27  fee owners or contract purchasers of the property, if reasonably 
  2.28  possible.  Notwithstanding section 13.44 or any law to the 
  2.29  contrary, the acquiring authority must provide the fee owner or 
  2.30  contract purchaser with a copy of the appraisal and inform the 
  2.31  fee owner or contract purchaser of the fee owner's or contract

  2.33     (b) The fee owner or contract purchaser may obtain an 
  2.34  appraisal by a qualified appraiser of the property proposed to 
  2.35  be acquired.  The fee owner or contract purchaser is entitled to 
  2.36  reimbursement for the reasonable costs of the appraisal from the

  3.2   or contract purchaser submits to the acquiring authority the 
  3.3   information necessary for reimbursement and a copy of the 
  3.4   appraisal within 90 days after receiving the acquiring 
  3.5   authority's appraisal.  The acquiring authority must pay the 
  3.6   reimbursement to the fee owner or contract purchaser within 90 
  3.7   days after receiving a copy of the appraisal and the 
  3.8   reimbursement information.  Upon agreement between the fee owner 
  3.9   or contract purchaser and the acquiring authority, the acquiring 
  3.10  authority may pay the reimbursement up to $1,500 directly to the 
  3.11  appraiser. 
  3.12     Subd. 3.  [NEGOTIATION.] In addition to the appraisal 
  3.13  requirements under subdivision 2, before commencing an eminent

  3.15  faith attempt to negotiate personally with the fee owner or 
  3.16  contract purchaser of the property in order to acquire the 
  3.17  property by direct purchase instead of the use of eminent domain 
  3.18  proceedings.  In making this negotiation, the acquiring 
  3.19  authority must consider the appraisals in its possession and 
  3.20  other information that may be relevant to a determination of 
  3.21  damages under this chapter. 
  3.22     Sec. 3.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 160.15, is 
  3.23  amended to read: 
  3.24     160.15 [PRESERVING SECTION OR QUARTER SECTION CORNERS.] 
  3.25     Subdivision 1.  [PERMANENT MARKING OF CORNERS.] Whenever 
  3.26  the construction, reconstruction, or maintenance of a

  3.28  destruction or obliteration of a known section or quarter- 
  3.29  section corner marking marker or monument, it shall be the duty 
  3.30  of the road authority having jurisdiction over the highway or

  4.8   For a paved highway, a supplemental marker must be placed over 
  4.9   the durable monument.  The supplemental marker must be visible 
  4.10  at the road surface and set in a manner so as not to be 
  4.11  disturbed by routine snow plowing.  When not practical or safe 
  4.12  to set a corner marker in a highway surface, a durable metal 
  4.13  marker may be set as a permanent witness monument on the section 
  4.14  line or quarter-section line.

  4.19  practicable and shall consist of a durable stone, concrete, or 
  4.20  cast iron metal marker. 
  4.21     Subd. 4.  [FILING OF CERTIFICATE.] The engineer or land 
  4.22  surveyor placing and establishing the markers or monuments shall 
  4.23  file a certificate to that effect in the office of the county 
  4.24  recorder, or in the office of the county surveyor where the 
  4.25  county maintains a full-time office, in the county or counties 
  4.26  wherein the markers or monuments were placed.  Each 
  4.27  certificate shall must contain only the record of markers and 
  4.28  monuments at one corner.  The county recorder may charge a fee 
  4.29  of 50 cents for each certificate filed.

  5.12     Sec. 4.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 161.44, is 
  5.13  amended by adding a subdivision to read: 
  5.14     Subd. 4a.  [TEN-YEAR EXCEPTION.] Notwithstanding 
  5.15  subdivisions 2, 3, and 4, the commissioner is not required to 
  5.16  offer to reconvey land no longer needed for trunk highway 
  5.17  purposes if the land was acquired by the commissioner at least 
  5.18  ten years before the commissioner conveys the land. 
  5.19     Sec. 5.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 161.44, is 
  5.20  amended by adding a subdivision to read: 
  5.21     Subd. 9a.  [APPROPRIATION.] Proceeds from the sale or lease 
  5.22  of real estate and buildings under this section and sections 
  5.23  161.23 and 161.141 must be paid into the trunk highway fund and

  5.34  amended to read: 
  5.35     161.442 [RECONVEYANCE TO FORMER OWNER.] 
  5.36     Notwithstanding sections 161.23, 161.41, 161.411, 161.43, 
  6.1   161.44, or any other statute, the commissioner of 
  6.2   transportation, with the consent of the owner, or for good cause 
  6.3   and with the consent of the court, may transfer, sell, or convey 
  6.4   real property including fixtures, and interests in real property 
  6.5   including easements, to the owner from whom the property was 
  6.6   acquired by the state for trunk highway purposes through a 
  6.7   pending eminent domain action.  The transfer of title may be by 
  6.8   stipulation, partial dismissal, bill of sale, or conveyance.  
  6.9   Any resulting change in the state's acquisition must be 
  6.10  explained in the final certificate for that action.  This 
  6.11  provision does not confer on a landowner the right to compel a 
  6.12  reconveyance without the consent of the commissioner. 
  6.13     <b>[EFFECTIVE DATE.]</b> This section is effective the day 
  6.14  following final enactment. 
  6.15     Sec. 7.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 515B.1-107, is 
  6.16  amended to read: 
  6.17     515B.1-107 [EMINENT DOMAIN.] 
  6.18     (a) If a unit is acquired by eminent domain, or if part of 
  6.19  a unit is acquired by eminent domain leaving the unit owner with 
  6.20  a remnant which may not practically or lawfully be used for any 
  6.21  material purpose permitted by the declaration, the award shall 
  6.22  compensate the unit owner and secured party in the unit as their 
  6.23  interests may appear, whether or not any common element interest 
  6.24  is acquired.  Upon acquisition, unless the order or final 
  6.25  certificate otherwise provides, that unit's allocated interests 
  6.26  are automatically reallocated among the remaining units in 
  6.27  proportion to their respective allocated interests prior to the 
  6.28  taking, and the association shall promptly prepare, execute, and 
  6.29  record an amendment to the declaration reflecting the 
  6.30  allocations.  Any remnant of a unit remaining after part of a 
  6.31  unit is taken under this subsection is thereafter a common 
  6.32  element. 
  6.33     (b) Except as provided in subsection (a), if part of a unit 
  6.34  is acquired by eminent domain, the award shall compensate the 
  6.35  unit owner and secured party for the reduction in value of the 
  6.36  unit and its interest in the common elements, whether or not any 
  7.1   common elements are acquired.  Upon acquisition, unless the 
  7.2   order or final certificate otherwise provides, (i) that unit's 
  7.3   allocated interests are reduced in proportion to the reduction 
  7.4   in the size of the unit, or on any other basis specified in the 
  7.5   declaration and (ii) the portion of the allocated interests 
  7.6   divested from the partially acquired unit are automatically 
  7.7   reallocated to that unit and to the remaining units in 
  7.8   proportion to the respective allocated interests of those units 
  7.9   before the taking, with the partially acquired unit 
  7.10  participating in the reallocation on the basis of its reduced 
  7.11  allocated interests. 
  7.12     (c) If part of the common elements is acquired by eminent 
  7.13  domain, the association shall accept service of process on 
  7.14  behalf of all unit owners and the portion of the award 
  7.15  attributable to the common elements taken shall be paid to the 
  7.16  association.  Unless the declaration provides otherwise, any 
  7.17  portion of the award attributable to the acquisition of a 
  7.18  limited common element shall be equally divided among the owners 
  7.19  of the units to which that limited common element was allocated 
  7.20  at the time of acquisition and their secured parties, as their 
  7.21  interests may appear or as provided by the declaration. 
  7.22     (d) In any eminent domain proceeding the units shall be 
  7.23  treated as separate parcels of real estate for valuation 
  7.24  purposes, regardless of the number of units subject to the 
  7.25  proceeding. 
  7.26     (e) Any distribution to a unit owner from the proceeds of 
  7.27  an eminent domain award shall be subject to any limitations 
  7.28  imposed by the declaration or bylaws. 
  7.29     (f) The court order or final certificate containing the 
  7.30  final awards shall be recorded in every county in which any 
  7.31  portion of the common interest community is located.

  9.35  bylaws may not impose limitations on the power of the 
  9.36  association to deal with the declarant which are more

 10.3      Sec. 9.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 515B.3-112, is 
 10.4   amended to read: 
 10.5      515B.3-112 [CONVEYANCE OR ENCUMBRANCE OF COMMON ELEMENTS.] 
 10.6      (a) In a condominium or planned community, unless the 
 10.7   declaration provides otherwise, portions of the common elements 
 10.8   may be conveyed or subjected to a security interest by the 
 10.9   association if persons entitled to cast at least 67 percent of 
 10.10  the votes in the association, including 67 percent of the votes 
 10.11  allocated to units not owned by a declarant, or any larger 
 10.12  percentage the declaration specifies, approve that action in 
 10.13  writing or at a meeting; but all unit owners of units to which 
 10.14  any limited common element is allocated must agree in order to 
 10.15  convey that limited common element or subject it to a security 
 10.16  interest.  The declaration may specify a smaller percentage only 
 10.17  if all of the units are restricted to nonresidential use. 
 10.18     (b) In a cooperative, unless the declaration provides 
 10.19  otherwise, part of a cooperative may be conveyed, or all or a 
 10.20  part subjected to a security interest, by the association if 
 10.21  persons entitled to cast at least 67 percent of the votes in the 
 10.22  association, including 67 percent of the votes allocated to 
 10.23  units in which the declarant has no interest, or any larger 
 10.24  percentage the declaration specifies, approves that action in 
 10.25  writing or at a meeting.  If fewer than all of the units or 
 10.26  limited common elements are to be conveyed or subjected to a 
 10.27  security interest, then all unit owners of those units, or the 
 10.28  units to which those limited common elements are allocated, must 
 10.29  agree in order to convey those units or limited common elements 
 10.30  or subject them to a security interest.  The declaration may 
 10.31  specify a smaller percentage only if all of the units are 
 10.32  restricted to nonresidential use.  Any purported conveyance or 
 10.33  other voluntary transfer of an entire cooperative is void, 
 10.34  unless made pursuant to section 515B.2-119. 
 10.35     (c) The association, on behalf of the unit owners, may 
 10.36  contract to convey or encumber an interest in the common 
 11.1   elements of a common interest community pursuant to this
