Minnesota Statutes § 469.172 - DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT POWERS

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law or charter, any city that contains a border city enterprise zone may, in addition to its other powers, exercise the powers granted to a governmental subdivision by sections 469.001 to 469.047, 469.048 to 469.068, and 469.109 to 469.113. Section 469.059, subdivision 15, applies to the city in the exercise of the powers granted pursuant to this section. It may exercise the powers assigned to redevelopment agencies pursuant to sections 469.152 to 469.165, without limitation to further the purposes of sections 469.001 to 469.047, 469.048 to 469.068, and 469.109 to 469.133. It may exercise the powers set forth in sections 469.001 to 469.047, 469.048 to 469.068, and 469.109 to 469.164 without limitation to further the purposes and policies set forth in sections 469.152 to 469.165. It may exercise the powers granted by this subdivision and any other development or redevelopment powers authorized by other laws, including sections 469.124 to 469.133 and 469.152 to 469.165, independently or in conjunction with each other as though all the powers had been granted to a single entity. Any project undertaken to accomplish the purposes of sections 469.001 to 469.047 that qualifies as single-family housing under section 462C.02, subdivision 4, is subject to the provisions of chapter 462C. Upon expiration of the designation of the enterprise zone, the powers granted by this subdivision may be exercised only with respect to any project, program, or activity commenced or established prior to that date. The powers granted by this subdivision may only be exercised within the zone.
