Lexicon of State Owned Lands Managed By
LEXICON OF STATE OWNED LANDS The following is a guide to the lands acquired by the State of Minnesota, with a particular focus on the lands managed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The framework is a fact sheet on each of the land types and information on the granting law. The lands are grouped as follows: - Lands granted by the federal government - The beds of navigable waters - Lands acquired through forfeiture - Other acquired lands - Mineral rights. There is also an index at the end of this guide. Kathy A. Lewis Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Division of Lands and Minerals 500 Lafayette Road St. Paul, MN 55155-4045 February 16, 2016 STATE LAND FACT SHEET: SCHOOL TRUST LANDS Definition and History: School trust lands are held in trust by the state with the revenue used for the public schools of the state. It had been a long established tradition in the United States to set aside lands in trust for the support of schools. The roots of this extend back to colonial practice and to English tradition. The new United States passed a General Land Ordinance in 1785, which allowed for the sale of western lands and provided for section 16 of each public land survey township to be set aside “for the maintenance of public schools” within the township. With the formation of the states from the western territories, these reserved lands would become school trust lands. This was first put into practice with the admission of Ohio to the Union in 1802. All states admitted to the Union since 1802 have received some amount of school trust land, except those few cases where the federal government owned no land. -
