Legislation appoints czar to oversee 'school trust' forestland
Gov. Mark Dayton late Saturday night signed into law legislation that changes how 2.5 million acres of state forestland is managed across northern Minnesota. The new law leaves the 'school trust' land under the umbrella of the DNR but adds a new state director of trust lands to oversee how the land is used.
