Became Law

This Act is a Senate Bill version of House Bill No. 117, as amended by House Amendment No. 1 (“House Bill No. 117”), which was reported out of the House Agriculture Committee on May 14, passed by the House on May 22, and reported out of the Senate Agriculture Committee on June 11. This Act replaces House Bill No. 117 to do all of the following: (1) Correct the bill title to ensure adequate notice that this Act is intended to apply to land owned by a political subdivision of this State, not just land owned by this State. (2) Make technical corrections consistent with the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual. (3) Clarify that under § 2002(b) of Title 3 the land referenced is intended to be land owned by this State or a subdivision of this State. Otherwise, this Act is substantively identical to House Bill No. 117 and so, like House Bill No. 117, this Act requires this State and any political subdivision of this State to notify the Farm Bureau when land owned by this State or any political subdivision of this State is listed for bidding for agricultural use. This requirement applies to land that is at least 10 acres in size and is used or intended to be used for agricultural use. The requirement to notify the Farm Bureau is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other notice required by law.
