HF 2186: Relating to notice of agency sales of unused highway right-of-way

Signed into law

What it does

Current law authorizes an agency in control of unused highway right-of-way to sell the land. If the agency does so, the agency is required to send notice of the agency’s intent to sell the land to the last known address of the present owner of adjacent land from which the land was originally purchased or condemned for highway purposes, and to the person who owned the land at the time it was purchased or condemned for highway purposes. The notice must include the name and address of any other person to whom a notice was sent, and the fair market value of the real property based upon an appraisal by an independent appraiser.
