Metropolitan Land Planning Act requirements and authority amended.
HF 1134 amends Minnesota's Metropolitan Land Planning Act to update housing goal requirements and planning compliance rules for municipalities in Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott, and Washington counties. It requires the Metropolitan Council to negotiate annual affordable housing goals with each municipality, which must then outline specific actions to meet these goals by June 30 each year. The bill clarifies that local zoning and fees must align with comprehensive plans and metropolitan system plans, prohibiting conflicts while allowing more specific commercial/industrial use rules. These changes apply to all participating municipalities in the seven-county metro area, focusing on ensuring planning consistency without altering housing policy outcomes.
