PURPOSE/ACTION REQUESTED
Approve renewal of the five-year installment repurchase plan for non-homestead property for one year beginning the first business day of 2024.

SUMMARY
Minn. Stat. ? 282.241 and Minn. Stat. ? 282.261, subd. 1, provide that a person repurchasing a tax-forfeited parcel must pay at least one-tenth of the purchase price and shall pay the balance in nine equal annual installments.

Alternatively, Minn. Stat. ? 282.261, subd. 3, provides that a county board may annually resolve to require that for non-homestead property, the minimum down payment must be 20 percent of the purchase price with the balance payable in four equal annual installments.
