Section 15-601. Purpose and Intent. St. Louis Park is faced with the problem
of providing a sound and fair means for guiding and controlling development and
redevelopment of land and buildings in designated redevelopment districts. The City
hereby establishes this ordinance for, the purpose of aiding and cooperating in the
fulfillment of redevelopment and financial planning by the Authority and other City
agencies, undertaking construction or development of property or buildings located in
projects designated by the Authority as redevelopment projects and for the purpose of
providing a procedure for implementation of redevelopment plans and objectives.
Section 15-602. Definitions. The following definitions shall apply in the
interpretation and enforcement of this ordinance, and the following words and terms
whenever they occur in this ordinance are defined as follows:
1. "Urban Renewal Plan or Redevelopment Plan" means a plan
approved by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and the
City Council, which plan provides an outline for the development
or redevelopment of a designated redevelopment district and
indicates general land uses and general standards of development
and redevelopment and includes provisions for financing.
2. "Housing and Redevelopment Authority or Authority" means the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
Section 15-603. Effect. After a Redevelopment Plan has been adopted by the
Authority and City Council, the issuance of building permits by the City for property
located within the designated redevelopment district shall be subject to the provisions
of this ordinance. The City officer responsible for issuing building permits shall not
approve such applications for permits in excess of $5,000 during a 12 month period to
expand an existing building or structure or to establish new buildings or structures; nor
shall any new uses of land within the boundaries of a redevelopment project covered by
a Redevelopment Plan be approved unless the Authority has adopted a resolution finding
that the proposed expansion, new structures and/or new land use is consistent with the
adopted Redevelopment Plan. Permits for interior remodeling of existing uses are
excluded from the provisions of this section.
If the Authority finds the proposal is not consistent with the Redevelopment Plan but
finds that upon evidence and arguments presented to it—(a) that the property for which
a permit is sought cannot yield a reasonable return to the owner unless such a permit
is issued and (b) that balancing the need for compliance and adherence to the
Redevelopment Plan and interest in preserving the integrity of the Redevelopment Plan
and the interest of the owner of the property in the use of the owner's property and in
the benefits of ownership, the granting of such permit is required by considerations of
justice and equity, then the Authority shall have six (6) months from the date of such
findings to institute proceedings to acquire such land or interest therein. If no such
proceedings are started within six (6) months, the officer responsible for issuing buildings
permits shall issue the permit if the application otherwise conforms to all local ordinances.
