County classifies one‑rod Motley parcel as non‑conservation after no public comment

Aug 26, 2026

The Morrison County Board held a public hearing Aug. 25 to determine whether a small tax‑forfeited parcel in Motley should be classed as conservation or non‑conservation. Shannon from the Auditor‑Treasurer’s office said the parcel — listed as one rod — reverted to tax‑forfeit in 1954 and must be classified under the rules in effect when it forfeited before any sale proceeds.
