Pursuant to sections 9(a) and 9(b) of article IX of the Missouri
Constitution, the state university is hereby incorporated and created as
a body politic and shall be known by the name of "The Curators of the
University of Missouri", and by that name shall have perpetual
succession, power to sue and be sued, complain and defend in all courts;
to make and use a common seal, and to alter the same at pleasure; to
take, purchase and to sell, convey and otherwise dispose of lands and
chattels, except that the curators shall not have the power to subdivide,
sell or convey title to any land contained within a university campus or
to subdivide, sell or convey title to any portion of any parcel of land
containing in excess of twenty-five hundred contiguous acres unless such
transaction is approved by the general assembly by passage of a
concurrent resolution signed by the governor. The curators shall not
sell, trade or otherwise convey or permit the severance of timber,
minerals or other natural resources, unless the curators comply with
bidding procedures established by rule that mandate notice of the
transaction be provided in a manner reasonably calculated to apprise
prospective purchasers. Such rule or rules must at a minimum require at
least one notice of the transaction be published in a newspaper of
general circulation where the resources are located. The curators may act
as trustee in all cases in which there be a gift of property or property
left by will to the university or for its benefit or for the benefit of
students of the university; to condemn an appropriate real estate or
other property, or any interest therein, for any public purpose within
the scope of its organization, in the same manner and with like effect as
is provided in chapter 523, RSMo, relating to the appropriation and
valuation of lands taken for telegraph, telephone, gravel and plank or
railroad purposes; provided, that if the curators so elect, no assessment
of damages or compensation under this law shall be payable and no
execution shall issue before the expiration of sixty days after the
adjournment of the next regular session of the legislature held after
such assessment is made, but the same shall bear interest at the rate of
six percent per annum from its date until paid; and provided further,
that the curators may, at any time, elect to abandon the proposed
appropriation of property by an instrument of writing to that effect, to
be filed with the clerk of the court and entered on the minutes of the
court, and as to so much as is thus abandoned, the assessment of damages
or compensation shall be void. (RSMo 1939 § 10783, A.L. 1977 S.B. 47,

inventories. (RSMo 1939 § 10792)

Prior revisions: 1929 § 9635; 1919 § 11532; 1909 § 11106

1. The curators of the University of Missouri may establish
research, development and office park projects, in order to promote
cooperative relationships and to provide for shared resources between
private individuals, companies and corporations, and the University of
Missouri, for the advancement of the university in carrying out its
educational mission and such projects are declared to be in furtherance
of the purposes of the university.

2. The curators may, in connection with such projects, enter into
written, mutually binding leases or agreements with individuals,
businesses, corporations, and professional firms participating in the
project for the purpose of expanding business and professional
opportunities for students, faculty and graduates of the university and
of the area it serves, and for making available to the university the
resources and expertise of the business and professional entities
participating in the project.

3. The curators may purchase necessary land and may purchase and
construct or arrange for or permit the construction of any necessary
facilities for such projects, may utilize the power of eminent domain,
and may in any other manner acquire and accept in the name of the
curators of the University of Missouri suitable land and facilities for
such projects, and may enter into business arrangements, including
long-term leases, for the development thereof. The curators may also
acquire options upon lands to be purchased. Lands and improvements
utilized as a part of such projects, so long as they remain a part of a
project, shall not be subject to local zoning or local regulatory
ordinances; provided that if the project is located within a city or
county, the university is required to consult with the city or county,
prior to board of curators' approval of the master development plan or
substantial amendments thereto. The city or county plan commission may
hold and complete a public hearing on such plan within forty-five days of
submission to the city or county and the city or county within fifteen
days thereafter may issue its advisory recommendations to the curators.
The curators may in their sole discretion require that project
development conform to the planning, transportation, environmental,
health and safety requirements of such city or county. Interests in
property included in such projects may be conveyed as needed, without
passage of a concurrent resolution as provided by the provisions of
section 172.020. The utilization of the real property, as provided in
subsection 1 of this section, is hereby deemed to be a public purpose and
in furtherance of the purposes of the university. Provided such land is
owned by the university, no leasehold or other interest therein, by
whomsoever held, shall be separately assessed or taxed, and such real
property as a whole shall be deemed the property of the curators of the
University of Missouri and be exempt from all forms of property tax.

4. For the purpose of developing and operating the project, the curators
may enter into cooperative agreements, including leases, in the same
manner and to the same extent that political subdivisions are authorized
to enter into such agreements by the provisions of section 70.220, RSMo.

5. Whenever the curators' acquisition of land for such a research,
development and office park project will result in displacement,
relocation assistance and monetary benefits identical to those provided
by subchapter II of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, 42 U.S.C. 4621 et seq., and its
implementing regulations shall be afforded to each displaced occupant or
entity.

6. Notwithstanding the exemption of the curators of the University of
Missouri from municipal regulation and the provisions of subsection 3 of
this section, any entity acting pursuant to a lease or cooperative
agreement with the curators may request that permits, licenses and
certificates be issued by a city or county where a project is to be
located in order to aid in the construction, operation and financing of
such project. Such permits, licenses and certificates may be issued by
the city or county after review and approval of plans submitted by an
architect or engineer licensed to practice in the state of Missouri. Any
entity may also request that inspections be conducted by such city or
county if such activities are normally performed by the city or county in
the enforcement of its building code.

7. Such doctrines of sovereign and official immunity and the public duty
doctrines as now exist for the issuance of permits, licenses,
certificates and performance of inspections shall apply to any city,
county or official or employee thereof issuing permits, licenses, and
certificates or performing inspections pursuant thereto with respect to
any claim brought for damages as a result of the wrongful or negligent
issuance of such permit, license or certificate or the performance of
inspections.

8. The exemption from assessment and taxation provided by subsection 3 of
this section for leaseholds in property owned by the university in a
research park project shall not be available for leases entered into from
and after August 28, 1996. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any
provision of this section to the contrary, all leaseholds in property in
such parks leased by the university to tenants for research, development,
office or any other nonrecreational use prior to August 28, 1996,
including leaseholds created after August 28, 1996, under options or
similar rights which were granted prior to January 1, 1996, shall be
exempt from assessment and taxation for the term of such lease, provided
that leaseholds in property used for recreational purposes shall be
subject to assessment and taxation as determined by the assessor of the
local political subdivision, and all lands and improvements in such
parks, by whomsoever owned. (L. 1986 S.B. 657 § 1, A.L. 1988 H.B. 1456
merged with S.B. 820, A.L. 1996 H.B. 1237)

(1997) St. Charles County Board of Equalization must presume that statute
is constitutional and determine the exemption issue accordingly. Missouri
Bluffs Golf Joint Venture v. St. Charles County Board of Equalization,
934 S.W.2d 752 (Mo.App. E.D.).

(2000) Exemption from property tax of leasehold interests in research,
development and office park projects leased by University of Missouri
violates article X, section 6 of the Missouri Constitution. St. Charles
County v. Curators of the University of Missouri, 25 S.W.3d 159 (Mo.banc).

(2003) Property formerly exempted by section declared unconstitutional
were omitted properties under section 138.380, RSMo, and could also be
assessed for taxes for the year in which the decision declaring the
section unconstitutional was issued. Nike IHM, Inc. v. Zimmerman, 122

thereof, such degrees as are known to and usually granted by any college
or university. (RSMo 1939 § 10808)

1. The University of Missouri shall annually request an
appropriation under capital improvements, subject to availability of
funds, for a program of grants established for the engineering colleges
of the University of Missouri for the purpose of assisting such colleges
in the purchase of teaching and research laboratory equipment exclusive
of laboratory or classroom furniture. The amount granted for each
engineering college may not exceed the lesser of an amount equal to one
thousand two hundred dollars per each such bachelor's degree awarded in
the previous fiscal year in all engineering programs currently accredited
by the accreditation board for engineering and technology, or the dollar
value of new funds for equipment purchase which such colleges may obtain
from sources other than state appropriations for laboratory equipment.

2. For purposes of this section, the fair market value of in-kind
contributions of laboratory equipment to the colleges may be included as
funds for equipment purchase from sources other than state
appropriations. In the event that new funds for laboratory equipment
purchase obtained by any college of engineering from such nonstate
sources exceed the amount necessary to reach the maximum dollar limits
herein specified, such excess amounts will be carried over to the
following fiscal year and considered the same as that year's new
equipment funds from nonstate sources.

3. In the event that the appropriations for this grant program are
insufficient to fund all grants approved for a given fiscal year, all
such grants shall be reduced pro rata as necessary.

4. The provisions of this section shall terminate on June 30, 2007. (L.

1. (1) The purpose of this section is to grant to the curators
of the University of Missouri additional powers in the use of the land
acquired by the state under the provisions of the act of February 24,
1870, establishing the agricultural and mechanical college, including the
right to transfer title thereto as herein provided. The act of 1870 was
enacted to comply with the provisions of the act of congress of July 2,
1862, the Morrill Act, which provided that in order for a state to
qualify for a land grant it must establish and maintain an agricultural
and mechanical college. The general assembly of Missouri, to assure
continuance of the college in compliance with the Morrill Act, provided
that the land should be used for the purposes of the agricultural and
mechanical college. Since the college has now been in existence for more
than ninety years and has been firmly and permanently established, the
purpose of the general assembly in directing the land to be used for the
purposes of the agricultural and mechanical college has been fully
accomplished.

(2) It is further found that, due to change in character of use of
adjacent areas and due to change in the needs and methods of operation of
the agricultural and mechanical college, this land has become unusable
for the purposes intended in 1870, and the board of curators of the
University of the State of Missouri has made available and allocated to
the agricultural and mechanical college, for its exclusive use, other
lands now adaptable and useful for the purposes contemplated under the
original act, and in acreage far exceeding the land originally conveyed
pursuant to the act of 1870.

(3) It is hereby found and determined by the general assembly that it is
to the best interest of the agricultural and mechanical college, the
university, and the public that the permissible uses of the land be
enlarged.

2. All lands acquired by the state of Missouri for the use of the
agricultural and mechanical college pursuant to the act of the general
assembly of February 24, 1870, may be used for such purposes as the board
of curators of the University of Missouri determines are in the best
interest of the university including the power to transfer title thereto
as provided by subsection 3.

3. The curators of the University of Missouri, if it determines that the
intended use of the land is in the best interests of the University of
Missouri, is authorized and empowered to transfer and convey title in fee
simple to any portion or portions of the land to any department, agency,
subdivision or instrumentality of the state of Missouri or to the United
States or any department thereof for such consideration as it deems
proper. The consideration need not be monetary but may be benefits to be
derived by the university from the use of the land by the grantee.

4. Any such conveyance of the land shall be executed in the name of the
curators of the University of Missouri, signed by the president of the
board of curators with the seal of the corporation attached thereto, and
attested by the secretary of the board of curators. (L. 1963 p. 349 §§ 1
to 4)

Violations shall have the same effect as though such had occurred on
public roads, streets or highways of this state. (L. 1985 H.B. 288, et
al. § 1)

For the purpose of promoting public safety, health and general
welfare and to protect life and property, the board of curators of the
state university may establish regulations to control vehicular traffic,
including speed regulations, on any thoroughfare owned or maintained by
the state university and located within any of its campuses. Such
regulations shall be consistent with the provisions of the general motor
vehicle laws of this state. (L. 1985 H.B. 288, et al. § 2)

The regulations established by the board of curators shall be
codified, printed and distributed for public use. Adequate signs
displaying the speed limit shall be posted along such thoroughfares. (L.
1985 H.B. 288, et al. § 3)

Violations of any regulation established under sections 172.743
to 172.750* shall have the same effect as a violation of municipal
ordinances adopted pursuant to section 304.120, RSMo, with penalty
provisions as provided in section 304.570, RSMo. Points assessed against
any person pursuant to section 302.302, RSMo, for a violation of sections
172.743 to 172.750* shall be the same as provided for a violation of a
county or municipal ordinance. (L. 1985 H.B. 288, et al. § 4)

*Words "this act" appear in original rolls. Sections 302.160, 304.010,
304.050, 304.070, 304.155, and 304.157 were also included in H.B. 288, et
al. enacted in 1985.
