061118P.pdf 01/10/2007 Minnesota Towers v. City of Duluth
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 06-1118
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Beam and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Zoning. Interpreting the provisions of Minn. Stats. Sec.
15.99, the court holds that when a city council denies a zoning request
previously approved by the city's planning commission, the requirement
that the city provide written notice of the denial within 60 days does not
apply, and the district court erred in finding the city had violated the
statute and in ordering that the application be deemed approved. Judge
Beam, dissenting.
