Notwithstanding section 103C.225, the Ramsey Soil

authorities are transferred to the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners.

Subd. 2.

Transfer of duties and authorities.

The Ramsey County Board of
Commissioners has the duties and authorities of a soil and water conservation district. All
contracts in effect on the date of the discontinuance of the district to which Ramsey Soil
and Water Conservation District is a party remain in force and effect for the period provided
in the contracts. The Ramsey County Board of Commissioners shall be substituted for the
Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation District as party to the contracts and succeed to the
district's rights and duties.

Subd. 3.

The Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation District Board
of Supervisors shall transfer the assets of the district to the Ramsey County Board of

under its authority in section 103C.201, and after giving notice of corrective actions and
time to implement the corrective actions, may reestablish the Ramsey Soil and Water
Conservation District if it determines the goals established in section 103C.005 are not
being achieved. The Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources may reestablish the
Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation District under this subdivision without a referendum.
