WASECA COUNTY RESOLUTION NO. 2017-31 RESOLUTION ASSUMING THE AUTHORITY TO ENFORCE THE PARCEL TRANSFER AND DIVISION RESTRICTIONS OF MINNESOTA STATUTE. 272.162 WHEREAS, Minnesota Statute 272.162 specifies the conditions when a local government may restrict parcel transfers or land divisions; and WHEREAS, the 90th Minnesota Legislature adopted Chapter 1 in the 2017 First Special Session, amending Minnesota Statute 272.162; and 344
WHEREAS, the amended Minnesota Statute 272.162 authorizes a county to review a deed or other instrument conveying a parcel of land for transfer or division before it is recorded, ensuring conformity with the county s land use regulation; and WHEREAS; a county s review of a proposed land transfer or division will protect land owners from problems arising from property splits not compliant with zoning regulations or inaccurate parcel descriptions; and WHEREAS; a county must choose to assume the authority to review deeds or other instruments conveying parcels of land for transfer or division; now therefore, BE IT RESOLVED, the restrictions of Minnesota Statute 272.162 shall apply to property within Waseca County s boundaries, specifically the County Auditor shall not transfer or divide the land in the official records and shall not certify the deed or other instrument of conveyance as provided in Minn. Stat. 272.162, if: a. The land conveyed is less than a whole parcel of land as charged in the tax lists; b. The part of land conveyed appears within the area of application of municipal or county subdivision regulations adopted and filed under Minn. Stat. 394.35 or 462.36; and c. The part conveyed is part of or constitutes a subdivision as defined in Minnesota Statute 462.352, Subdivision 12; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the county auditor may transfer or divide the land if its deed or instrument contains a certification by the clerk of the municipality or designated county planning official: a. That the municipality s or county s subdivision regulations do not apply; b. That the subdivision has been approved by the governing body of the municipality or county; or c. That the restrictions on the division of taxes and filing and recording have been waived by resolution of the governing body of the municipality or county in the particular case because compliance would create an unnecessary hardship and failure to comply would not interfere with the purpose of the regulations.
