Title:
Adopt Resolution #16-01-028 Requesting Anoka County to Withhold Certain Tax Forfeit Land from Public Sale and Authorizing Acquisition of Tax Forfeit Property (PIN 25-32-25-24-0057) for Public Purpose and Adopt Resolution #16-01-029 Approving the Classification and Sale of Tax-Forfeit Parcel (PIN 24-32-25-33-0061) in the City of Ramsey
Purpose/Background:
Purpose: The purpose of this case is to ask Council to consider acquiring a tax forfeit parcel for public purpose and to approve tax forfeit classification of one other parcel.
Background: The City has received notification from Anoka County Property Records and Taxation of two (2) parcels in tax forfeit. State Statutes requires that the governing body of a municipality must approve the classification and sale of forfeit parcels that lie within their jurisdiction. The City is also offered the first right to acquire the tax forfeit properties.
Upon staff review, it appears one (1) of the parcels could be acquired for public purpose, and one (1) would serve no public purpose and should therefore be classified as tax forfeit and offered for sale.
For Council's information,the following is included with this report: Policy for the Acquisition of City Owned Land, Minnesota State Statute related to conveyance of tax forfeit land to public entities, and GIS images of the two tax forfeit parcels.
