§ 40a-12-14-1

40A:12-14.1 Lease of certain farmland to prior lessee. 2. Whenever a county or municipality acquires real property that, immediately prior to acquisition, was leased from the prior owner by a private person for agricultural or horticultural use, and the county or municipality determines that, until such time as the real property is needed for public use, the temporary continuance of the private agricultural or horticultural use would not compromise that public use, it may lease the real property to the prior lessee for agricultural or horticultural use for such period, consideration, and other terms and conditions as shall be mutually agreed upon.
