§ 84A.36 — Lands to Be Held by State
Plain-Language Summary
When the state gets land inside a reforestation project through tax forfeiture, the state owns it free and clear. The land must be used or disposed of according to state law.

The title to parcels of land within a project, except lands within the boundaries of a city, that are acquired by the state under Laws 1927, chapter 119, as amended, must be held by the state free from any trust in favor of the taxing districts specified in that chapter.

Practical Notes
Tax-forfeited land inside a reforestation project (except in cities) becomes full state property with no obligations to local taxing districts. This is similar to sections 84A.07 and 84A.26 but applies to projects established under section 84A.31.
