Watonwan County authorizes $1 conveyances to St. James to address blight
Summary
Acting under M.S. 282.01, Subd. 1a(d), the Watonwan County Board approved Resolution 26-5 to convey specified tax-forfeited parcels to the City of St. James at a reduced basic sale price of $1 each so the city may raze blighted structures.
The Watonwan County Board voted to convey multiple tax-forfeited parcels in the City of St. James to the city at a reduced basic sale price of $1.00 each so the city can raze blighted structures, the resolution states. The board cited M.S. 282.01, Subd. 1a(d) as authority to reduce the price for the public interest.
Parcels listed in the resolution include Parcel 201510480 (717 Sixth St N), Parcel 202760910 (405 Sixth St N), Parcel 202760700 (411 Fourth St N) and Parcel 202760720 (315 Fourth Ave N); the resolution records parcel descriptions and the board found a reduced price was necessary to provide an incentive to correct blighted conditions.
