I read below somebody saying the world was overpopulated,and so on. Heard just a few years ago that if you took everybody in the WORLD,put them in one place,gave them a 2 foot by 2 foot place to stand,they would only cover an area the size of Jacksonville Florida. It's just that everybody wants their piece of the American dream. I don't know how your assesment system works in Minn., but here in Michigan,the state does a sales study every year and assesments are based on actual sales,averaged over an entire county. It is illegal to assess an individual parcel by its selling price.As for your 3 parcels,again,here in Michigan those could be combined for tax purposes just by asking township assesor to do so.I know that doesn't answer everything,but it's all that I have. Somebody from your state will have to answer the rest. I'd go to Board of Review if I was in your shoes. I'm chairman of our local board,most who come in just have questions such as yours. As for preservation,it sickens me to see it developed too,but the alternative would be the government taking away the value of my land by limiting its use.
