As a kickoff to the 1989 MN APA/MPA Conference, the cities of Brooklyn <br />Park, Champlin, Blaine and Maple Grove will host a training session for <br />your Planning Commissioners, City Councils and Staff. This session is <br />modeled after the Planning and Law Conferences that are held throughout the <br />country by the American Planning Association. <br /> <br />As you are aware, there are a host of issues that lay persons need to have <br />answers for during the public decision-making process. These include: <br /> <br />Procedures, testimony and exhibits as evidence for potential <br />litigation <br /> <br />Non-conformities <br /> <br />-- "Taking" issues <br /> <br />-- Spot zoning <br /> <br />-- Grounds for denial of Special or Conditional Use Permits <br /> <br />Making findings of fact for variances and rezonings <br /> <br />Validity of Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br />-- Use of legal opinions <br /> <br />-- Extractions from developers <br /> <br />A panel of municipal attorneys will be addressing these and other issues <br />presented by the audience. <br /> <br />If you have had recent turnovers on your Planning Ccmmission and/or City <br />Council ... or if planning recommendations are not quite on target with the <br />law ... or re-emphasis on legal matters is needed ... or updating members <br />on various l~gal issues is in order -- this training should be very <br />beneficial. <br /> <br />Please clear your calendars to allow your Ccmmissioners/Councils/Staff to <br />attend this complimentary workshop. <br /> <br />APRIL 5, 1989 <br /> <br />7:30 P.M. <br /> <br />BNDOKLYN PARK ~ ACTTVITY <br /> <br /> 5600 - 85~ AW~I~ NOR~ <br />(Between Zane & Regent Avenues) <br /> <br />Come for a cup of coffee and have what should prove to be a very <br />informative evening. <br /> <br /> <br />
