Minnesota HF3625 repeals an alternative approval process for zoning ordinance changes in first class cities.

Minnesota HF3625 repeals the alternative approval process for certain zoning procedures in first class cities. This change affects the adoption or amendment of zoning ordinances that reclassify residential areas to commercial or industrial use. Previously, a two-thirds vote by the city's governing body, after a survey by the planning commission or planning board and a public hearing, could suffice without written consent from property owners. The repeal removes this exception, requiring the standard process for all zoning changes in these cities.
