In order to determine which specific uses are allowed in Community Business and <br /> Regional Business areas,more than just use must be considered. Other factors such as where the <br /> store or facility is located,where the customer base is drawn from,the physical size of the store <br /> or facility,the uniqueness of the product sold or produced,the other uses and stores in the area, <br /> whether similar stores or facilities are located nearby, and other factors deemed relevant by the <br /> Community Development Department need to be reviewed to determine whether a use falls into <br /> a Community Business use area or a Regional Business use area. Consequently, each proposed <br /> use, together with the scope and extent of the use, the facilities associated with the use and the <br /> manner in which the use is to be implemented on the property must be evaluated by the <br /> Community Development Department on a case by case basis using the foregoing factors to <br /> determine whether it constitutes a Community Business or a Regional Business use. Until this <br /> determination has been made and whether such use is allowed or prohibited in the Community <br /> Mixed-Use District under the Zoning Code can the question of whether a particular use results in <br /> a conflict between the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code be answered. To the extent that a <br /> Regional Business use is allowed in a Community Mixed-Use District under the Zoning Code, <br /> there is an apparent conflict between the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code. <br /> Answer to Question No. 2: Minnesota Statutes § 473.865 states that a local <br /> governmental unit shall not adopt any official control or fiscal device which is in conflict with its <br /> Comprehensive Plan or which permits activity in conflict with metropolitan system plans. If an <br /> official control conflicts with a Comprehensive Plan as a result of an amendment to the plan,the <br /> official control shall be amended by the governmental unit within nine months following the <br /> amendment to the Comprehensive Plan so as to not conflict with the amended Comprehensive <br /> Plan: Minnesota Statutes § 473.858 provides that Minnesota Statutes §473.865 shall supercede <br /> the provisions of the applicable planning statute wherever a conflict exists. Therefore, the <br /> general Me is that in the event of a conflict between the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning <br /> Code, the Comprehensive Plan controls. While the courts generally adhere to this rule, the <br /> Minnesota Court of Appeals in the case of PTL, LW v. Chicago County Board of <br /> Commissioners, 656 N.W. 2d 567 (Minn. App. 2003) decided that a County Board of <br /> Commissioners cannot deny approval of a plat solely on the basis that it does not comply with <br /> the comprehensive plan. In the PTL case, the court determined that the comprehensive plan is <br /> only a guide to setting zoning standards and that where a land owner complies with all of the <br /> requirements of a platting ordinance, the comprehensive plan does not provide an independent <br /> source of discretionary authority for denying approval of a preliminary plat. While the PTL case <br /> appears to be very narrow in its application, under certain limited circumstances a zoning code <br /> may prevail over a comprehensive plan. This means a conflict between a zoning code and <br /> comprehensive plan can matter. <br /> Answer to Question No.3: Since Minnesota Statutes §473.865 requires that the Zoning <br /> Code and Comprehensive Plan do not conflict, I would recommend that to the extent the <br /> Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code may conflict as described in Answer to Question No. 1 <br /> above, the City Council amend either its Zoning Code or Comprehensive Plan to eliminate the <br /> conflict. <br /> CRB/alb <br /> • <br />
