The bill, authored by Nash and Igo, seeks to modify the regulations surrounding the use of planned unit developments (PUDs) by municipalities in Minnesota. Here are the key points of the proposed legislation:

1. Limiting Municipal Requirements: Municipalities would no longer be able to require a planned unit development agreement if a proposed residential development already meets the existing city zoning ordinances or subdivision regulations, or qualifies as a conditional use.

2. Public Availability of Agreements: The bill mandates that any planned unit development agreement must be made publicly accessible. This is to be done by posting the agreement on the municipality's website at least seven days before the municipal governing body reviews the agreement. If a municipality does not have a website, a copy of the agreement must be made available for public review at the city hall.

3. Modification of Agreements: Once a planned unit development agreement is approved, it cannot be modified unless all parties involved in the agreement agree to the changes.

This legislation is intended to streamline the process for approving residential developments and increase transparency for the public regarding planned unit development agreements. It aims to set clear guidelines for when these agreements are required and how they can be accessed and changed.
