A bill for an act relating to interests in minerals owned by counties and cities, and including effective date provisions.

Summary

The law forces local governments to divest any mineral interests they own and convey them, without payment, to the surface owners of the land, unless the government also owns the surface. It also creates separate taxation for mineral rights, sets a minimum tax rate, and outlines tax‑sale and abandonment procedures.
