What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Current law authorizes the state to incur pubic debt for certain conservation activities under the stewardship program, which is administered by the Department of Natural Resources. The state may incur this debt to provide funding to acquire land for the state for conservation purposes and may also use the funding to award grants or state aid to certain local governmental units and nonprofit conservation organizations to acquire lands for conservation purposes (stewardship funding).
This bill prohibits the expenditure of stewardship funding if the expenditure is for an acquisition that will result in an adjacent landowner not having access to the landowner's land or that will result in the landowner having to pay for an easement access to the landowner land.
