Subd. 2. Uncontaminated property in environmental contamination remediation areas; feasible alternatives. In taking property to remediate environmental contamination, a condemning authority must not take uncontaminated parcels in the area unless there is no feasible alternative to the taking of the uncontaminated parcels in order to complete remediation of the contaminated parcels and all possible steps are taken to minimize the taking of the uncontaminated parcels.
Subd. 3. Contribution to condition by developer disallowed.
