Clear rules to sell surplus land
Beginning November 1, 2025, the Transportation Commission can sell surplus lands and items, while utilities keep their right to use existing lines. If land came from a local government as a gift or for little money, the state can return it when the government repays what it paid. A local government that leased surplus land can buy it at the current appraised fair market value, with past lease payments credited. Public sales must be for cash to the highest and best bidder after two weeks of county newspaper notices. The Commission can trade or lease land not needed now, must seek yearly federal waivers to sell 10‑year surplus parcels below fair market value, and DOT can act for the Commission; past conforming DOT deals are approved.
First chance to buy back land
Beginning November 1, 2025, prior owners get the first chance to buy surplus land back. The state must send registered mail and post the notice online before any sale. You can buy it back for no more than the original acquisition amount for five years after the taking, and you must accept in writing within 90 days. If the taking was under three acres and left only one neighbor, that sole abutting owner also gets the same offer. The state treats all prior owners the same, whether the land was sold, given, or taken by condemnation.
Priority access to surplus equipment
Beginning November 1, 2025, when DOT marks equipment or vehicles as surplus, it must send OMES a written notice with make, age/miles, condition, original cost, and value if known. At least 30 days before any auction or sealed bids, DOT must offer the items at fair market value to state agencies first, then local governments, rural fire departments, and rural water districts. Items bought are available to the purchaser on the date of purchase.
Law takes effect Nov. 1, 2025
This law takes effect on November 1, 2025.
Surplus materials for local projects
Beginning November 1, 2025, DOT makes surplus road and bridge materials available to eligible governments and can be repaid for recovery or storage costs. A requesting entity must pick up the materials within 180 days after the related project ends, or DOT may dispose of them. Local governments can request surplus bridge beams for public bridges. Beams must be inspected by a registered professional engineer before transfer, and the local government pays to move and handle the beams, including any lead‑paint work. DOT will hold requested beams for up to 180 days.
