BENSON LAND - farm usage, urban development... Known as the “City of Parks,” Benson serves as the county seat of Swift County and is home to several of the region’s largest employers. This primarily level site offers excellent accessibility and long-term development potential. The City of Benson borders the property along its west boundary, where Montana Avenue and Oregon Avenue are planned for future extension through the parcel according to the City’s transportation plan. The east boundary fronts 20th Ave NE / County Road 57, located just off U.S. Highway 12—providing strong transportation access and multiple development possibilities. With continued growth in Benson and strategic planning for expansion within Swift County, this property is well positioned for a variety of uses permitted within the Urban Development zoning district. Permitted uses include agricultural activities, home occupations, and automobile dealerships. Conditional uses within the district allow for a wide range of additional opportunities, including non-farm dwellings, motels, truck rest stops, gas stations, restaurants, commercial and industrial buildings, wind turbines, adult-use businesses, and manufactured home parks. Benson’s local economy is supported by diverse sectors including manufacturing, health care, education, finance and insurance, and food and beverage retail. Air transportation is available nearby at both Benson Municipal Airport and Lorenz Airport, each with a runway capable of accommodating regional aviation needs. In addition to its proximity to U.S. Highway 12, the property benefits from regional access via Minnesota State Highway 9 and Minnesota State Highway 29, connecting Benson to key regional centers including Willmar and the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.
