County approves final plats, corrects conditions on Landmark Acres and okays repurchase of forfeited parcel
Summary
The board approved final plats for Wheeler (two related plats) and Landmark Acres (five lots) with four highway-engineer conditions attached to Landmark Acres. The board also approved a repurchase application by Robert J. Erickson for a tax-forfeited parcel at a repurchase price of $11,833.17 to be paid immediately.
Isanti County commissioners approved several land-use items on Oct. 7, including final plats and a repurchase of tax-forfeited land.
Trina, zoning administrator, presented three final-plat requests. The Wheeler Second Edition preliminary plat had been approved previously; the board approved a one-lot final plat and a two-lot final plat (Wheeler addition) that correct improperly created parcels. The Landmark Acres final plat (styled "LANDMRCK" per the application) covers five lots in the Grama District. Trina recommended approval of Landmark Acres with four conditions recommended by the county highway engineer (easements, joint-maintenance agreement and other items) and asked that those conditions be recorded with the final plat. Commissioners approved Landmark Acres with the four conditions attached to recording.
Also before the board was an application from Robert J. Erickson to repurchase a parcel in Maple Ridge Township that had forfeited to the state on July 31, 2025. County staff summarized the statute allowing owners to repurchase prior to sale and calculated a total repurchase price of $11,833.17 (delinquent taxes, penalties, interest, fees and costs). Commissioners approved the repurchase with the condition that Erickson pay the total amount due immediately.
All motions carried by voice vote. County staff noted recordation details for plats and conditions, and that the repurchase returns the parcel to the tax rolls as intended by statute.
