Re: 2018 Inventory of State-Owned Land

Dear Committee Chairs:

Enclosed is the CD-ROM report detailing the 2018 Inventory of State-Owned Land is submitted in accordance with Minnesota Statutes §16B.245.

Please note that, consistent with the Enterprise Real Property Program requirements under Minnesota Statutes §16B.245, the Department of Administration regularly maintains an inventory of all state-owned properties. Such data is public information and available upon request. As such, the Legislature could consider repealing this reporting requirement, or simply require that the Commissioner maintain such data rather than annually report.

Sincerely, '7~7-fY)~ Matt Massman Minnesota Department of Administration
