§ 16B.287 — Disposition of Proceeds From Surplus State-owned Land

Plain-Language Summary

Money from selling surplus state land goes into the general fund. However, the costs of preparing the land for sale - such as surveying, appraising, advertising, and legal fees - are reimbursed to the account that paid for those expenses.

Practical Notes
The state recovers its selling costs off the top before the rest goes to the general fund. This ensures the accounts that paid for surveys, appraisals, and advertising are made whole. The reimbursed funds are immediately available for use again.
