State or a county authorized to acquire the property of a public utility or cooperative electric association through eminent domain.

Summary

The bill amends Minnesota law so that the state or a county can acquire the land or facilities of a public utility or cooperative electric association via eminent domain. Compensation must cover the utility’s original cost (minus depreciation), lost revenue, integration expenses, and other appropriate factors. The acquiring entity cannot start providing electric service during the case, but can request service rights from the commission.
