BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA: 
    Section 1.  Laws 1985, chapter 61, section 1, is amended to 
read: 
    Section 1.  [SALE OF CERTAIN DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS 
LAND.] 
    Notwithstanding Minnesota Statutes, sections 94.09 to 
94.16, or any other law to the contrary, the commissioner of 
administration may sell certain property to the city of Hastings 
in accordance with this section before January 1, 1986 1987. 
    The property referred to in this section must be sold for a 
consideration of the commissioner of administration's appraised 
value, plus the cost of survey and appraisal incurred as a 
result of Laws 1985, chapter 61, section 1, and this act.  The 
commissioner shall have the property surveyed and appraised, in 
the manner provided in Minnesota Statutes, section 94.10, to 
determine its value and exact legal description.  The appraisal 
must be based on the property being agricultural property and 
being continued in agricultural use rather than being used for 
industrial development.  The conveyance must be by quitclaim 
deed in a form approved by the attorney general. 
    The property is approximately 67.8 74.3 acres of land 
located in the northeast quarter of section 34, and the 
northwest quarter of section 35, township 115, range 17, in 
Dakota county. 
    The property has always been used for agricultural purposes 
and was surplus farm land at the Minnesota veterans home in 
Hastings.  The property was originally conveyed by the city of 
Hastings to the state for the use of the veterans home.  The 
city of Hastings has immediate industrial use for the land. 
    Sec. 2.  [EFFECTIVE DATE.] 
    Section 1 is effective the day following final enactment.
