           An act relating to zoning; providing for filing

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA: 
    Section 1.  Minnesota Statutes 1986, section 462.36, 
subdivision 1, is amended to read:  
    Subdivision 1.  [REQUIRED DOCUMENTS.] A certified copy of 
every ordinance, resolution, map, or regulation adopted, or 
variance granted under the provisions of sections 462.358, 
462.359, and 462.3595 shall be filed with the county recorder of 
the county or counties in which the municipality adopting it is 
located.  A certified copy of every variance to abstract or 
registered property granted under section 462.358 shall be filed 
with the county recorder or the registrar of titles of the 
county or counties in which the municipality granting it is 
located; except that the requirement to file a variance is 
satisfied if a certified copy of the resolution citing the 
existence of the variance is filed identifying the location 
where the variance documents are available for inspection.  
Ordinances, resolutions, maps, regulations or variances 
filed with the county recorder pursuant to this subdivision do 
not constitute encumbrances on real property.  The order issued 
by the governing body or board of appeals and adjustments as the 
case may be, shall include the legal description of the property 
involved.  Failure to file an ordinance, resolution, map, 
regulation, variance, or order shall not affect its validity or 
enforceability. 
    Sec. 2.  [EFFECTIVE DATE.] 
    Section 1 is effective August 1, 1988, for variances 
granted on or after that date. 
    Approved April 21, 1988
