 10.34     Subd. 12.  [OFFICIAL MAP.] "Official map" means a map 
 10.35  adopted in accordance with section 394.361, which may show 
 10.36  existing county roads and county state-aid highways, proposed 
 11.1   future county roads and highways, the area needed for widening 
 11.2   existing county roads and highways, and existing and future 
 11.3   state trunk highway rights-of-way.  An official map may also 
 11.4   show the location of existing public land and facilities and 
 11.5   other land needed for future public purposes, including public 
 11.6   facilities such as parks, playgrounds, schools, and other public 
 11.7   buildings, civic centers, airports, and travel service 
 11.8   facilities.  When requested in accordance with section 394.32, 
 11.9   subdivision 3, an official map may include existing and planned 
 11.10  public land uses within incorporated areas. 
 11.11     Sec. 14.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 394.361, 
 11.12  subdivision 1, is amended to read: 
 11.13     Subdivision 1.  [FUTURE PUBLIC USES.] Land that is needed 
 11.14  for future street and highway purposes, or for aviation 
 11.15  purposes, and as sites for other necessary public facilities and 
 11.16  services is frequently diverted to nonpublic uses which that 
 11.17  could have been located on other lands without hardship or 
 11.18  inconvenience to the owners.  When this happens, public uses of 
 11.19  land may be denied or may be obtained later only at prohibitive 
 11.20  cost or at the expense of dislocating the owners and occupants 
 11.21  of the land.  Identification on official maps of land needed for 
 11.22  future public uses permits both the public and private property 
 11.23  owners to adjust their building plans equitably and conveniently 
 11.24  before investments are made which that will make such 
 11.25  adjustments difficult to accomplish.  
 11.26     Sec. 15.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 394.361, 
 11.27  subdivision 3, is amended to read: 
 11.28     Subd. 3.  [EFFECT.] After an official map has been adopted 
 11.29  and filed, the issuance of land use or zoning permits or 
 11.30  approvals by the county shall be is subject to the provisions of 
 11.31  this section.  Whenever any street or highway is widened or 
 11.32  improved or any new street is opened, or interests in lands for 
 11.33  other public purposes, including aviation purposes, are acquired 
 11.34  by the county, it is not required in such proceedings to pay for 
 11.35  any building or structure placed without a permit or approval or 
 11.36  in violation of conditions of a permit or approval within the 
 12.1   limits of the mapped street or highway or outside of any 
 12.2   building line that may have been established upon the existing 
 12.3   street or within any area thus identified for public purposes, 
 12.4   including aviation purposes.  The adoption of official maps does 
 12.5   not give the county any right, title, or interest in areas 
 12.6   identified for public purposes thereon, but the adoption of a 
 12.7   map does authorize the county to acquire such these interests 
 12.8   without paying compensation for buildings or structures erected 
 12.9   in such those areas without a permit or approval or in violation 
 12.10  of the conditions of a permit or approval.  The provisions of 
 12.11  This subdivision shall does not apply to buildings or structures 
 12.12  in existence prior to the filing of the official map. 
 12.13     Sec. 16.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 462.352, 
 12.14  subdivision 10, is amended to read: 
 12.15     Subd. 10.  [OFFICIAL MAP.] "Official map" means a map 
 12.16  adopted in accordance with section 462.359, which may show 
 12.17  existing and proposed future streets, roads, and highways, and 
 12.18  airports of the municipality and county, the area needed for 
 12.19  widening of existing streets, roads, and highways of the 
 12.20  municipality and county, and existing and future county state 
 12.21  aid highways and state trunk highway rights-of-way.  An official 
 12.22  map may also show the location of existing and future public 
 12.23  land and facilities within the municipality.  In counties in the 
 12.24  metropolitan area as defined in section 473.121, official maps 
 12.25  may for a period of up to five years designate the boundaries of 
 12.26  areas reserved for purposes of soil conservation, water supply 
 12.27  conservation, flood control, and surface water drainage and 
 12.28  removal, including appropriate regulations protecting such those 
 12.29  areas against encroachment by buildings, or other physical 
 12.30  structures or facilities. 
 12.31     Sec. 17.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 462.355, 
 12.32  subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
 12.33     Subd. 4.  [INTERIM ORDINANCE.] If a municipality is 
 12.34  conducting studies or has authorized a study to be conducted or 
 12.35  has held or has scheduled a hearing for the purpose of 
 12.36  considering adoption or amendment of a comprehensive plan or 
 13.1   official controls as defined in section 462.352, subdivision 15, 
 13.2   or if new territory for which plans or controls have not been 
 13.3   adopted is annexed to a municipality, the governing body of the 
 13.4   municipality may adopt an interim ordinance applicable to all or 
 13.5   part of its jurisdiction for the purpose of protecting the 
 13.6   planning process and the health, safety and welfare of its 
 13.7   citizens.  The interim ordinance may regulate, restrict, or 
 13.8   prohibit any use, development, or subdivision within the 
 13.9   jurisdiction or a portion thereof for a period not to exceed one 
 13.10  year from the date it is effective.  The period of an interim 
 13.11  ordinance applicable to an area that is affected by a city's 
 13.12  master plan for a municipal airport may be extended for such 
 13.13  additional periods as the municipality may deem appropriate, not 
 13.14  exceeding a total additional period of 18 months in the case 
 13.15  where the Minnesota Department of Transportation has requested a 
 13.16  city to review its master plan for a municipal airport prior to 
 13.17  August 1, 2004.  In all other cases, no interim ordinance may 
 13.18  halt, delay, or impede a subdivision which that has been given 
 13.19  preliminary approval, nor may any interim ordinance extend the 
 13.20  time deadline for agency action set forth in section 15.99 with 
 13.21  respect to any application filed prior to the effective date of 
 13.22  the interim ordinance.  The governing body of the municipality 
 13.23  may extend the interim ordinance after a public hearing and 
 13.24  written findings have been adopted based upon one or more of the 
 13.25  conditions in clause (1), (2), or (3).  The public hearing must 
 13.26  be held at least 15 days but not more than 30 days before the 
 13.27  expiration of the interim ordinance, and notice of the hearing 
 13.28  must be published at least ten days before the hearing.  The 
 13.29  interim ordinance may be extended for the following conditions 
 13.30  and durations, but, except as provided in clause (3), an interim 
 13.31  ordinance may not be extended more than an additional 18 months: 
 13.32     (1) up to an additional 120 days following the receipt of 
 13.33  the final approval or review by a federal, state, or 
 13.34  metropolitan agency when the approval is required by law and the 
 13.35  review or approval has not been completed and received by the 
 13.36  municipality at least 30 days before the expiration of the 
 14.1   interim ordinance; 
 14.2      (2) up to an additional 120 days following the completion 
 14.3   of any other process required by a state statute, federal law, 
 14.4   or court order, when the process is not completed at least 30 
 14.5   days before the expiration of the interim ordinance; or 
 14.6      (3) up to an additional one year if the municipality has 
 14.7   not adopted a comprehensive plan under this section at the time 
 14.8   the interim ordinance is enacted. 
 14.9      Sec. 18.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 462.359, 
 14.10  subdivision 1, is amended to read: 
 14.11     Subdivision 1.  [STATEMENT OF PURPOSE.] Land that is needed 
 14.12  for future street purposes or for aviation purposes and as sites 
 14.13  for other necessary public facilities and services is frequently 
 14.14  diverted to nonpublic uses which that could have been located on 
 14.15  other lands without hardship or inconvenience to the owners.  
 14.16  When this happens, public uses of land may be denied or may be 
 14.17  obtained later only at prohibitive cost or at the expense of 
 14.18  dislocating the owners and occupants of the land.  
 14.19  Identification on an official map of land needed for future 
 14.20  public uses permits both the public and private property owners 
 14.21  to adjust their building plans equitably and conveniently before 
 14.22  investments are made which that will make such adjustments 
 14.23  difficult to accomplish.  
 14.24     Sec. 19.  Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 462.359, 
 14.25  subdivision 3, is amended to read: 
 14.26     Subd. 3.  [EFFECT.] After an official map has been adopted 
 14.27  and filed, the issuance of building permits by the municipality 
 14.28  shall be is subject to the provisions of this section.  Whenever 
 14.29  any street or highway is widened or improved or any new street 
 14.30  is opened, or interests in lands for other public purposes, 
 14.31  including aviation purposes, are acquired by the municipality, 
 14.32  it is not required in such proceedings to pay for any building 
 14.33  or structure placed without a permit or in violation of 
 14.34  conditions of a permit within the limits of the mapped street or 
 14.35  outside of any building line that may have been established upon 
 14.36  the existing street or within any area thus identified for 
 15.1   public purposes.  The adoption of an official map does not give 
 15.2   the municipality any right, title, or interest in areas 
 15.3   identified for public purposes thereon, but the adoption of the 
 15.4   map does authorize the municipality to acquire such interests 
 15.5   without paying compensation for buildings or structures erected 
 15.6   in such those areas without a permit or in violation of the 
 15.7   conditions of a permit.  
 15.8      Sec. 20.  [PARKING LOT LEASE.] 
 15.9      Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the commissioner 
 15.10  of administration shall negotiate a lease with a prospective 
 15.11  tenant regarding the use for fair market value of the parking 
 15.12  lot of the state-owned building at 222 East Plato Boulevard in 
 15.13  the city of St. Paul.  Money received by reason of the lease 
 15.14  must be deposited in the state airports fund. 
 15.15     <h>[EFFECTIVE DATE.]</h> This section is effective the day 
 15.16  following final enactment. 
 15.17     Sec. 21.  [REPEALER.] 
 15.18     Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 360.59, subdivisions 4 and 
 15.19  9, are repealed.
