SCS/SB 502 - This act authorizes the Governor to convey land in St. Louis County to Manchester United Methodist Church in exchange for receiving another parcel of land from the church. The act allows the state to convey a piece of land in exchange for another similar piece or for a sale price to be determined by the Commission of Administration. If the state conveys the piece of land, the Manchester United Methodist Church shall build a new group home on another piece of land in accordance with specifications approved by the Commissioner of Administration and convey the home and property to the state in exchange. The church shall have the right of first refusal to purchase the land conveyed to the state if the General Assembly authorizes the right to sell it in the future. As alternative consideration, the church may build a new group home on the property owned by the church and lease the property to the state for $1 per year for a minimum of 20 years or until the state stops using the property for a group home.
This act has an emergency clause.
This act is identical to HCS/HB 631 (2005).
