§ 103E.745 — Cost of Repair Exceeding Benefits in Anoka County

Plain-Language Summary

A city that is part of a drainage system can petition to modify the system within city limits if changes are needed for urban development. The city must pay for modifications that primarily benefit municipal purposes.

Practical Notes
Growing cities sometimes need to modify drainage systems to accommodate development. The city bears the cost of changes made for its benefit, protecting rural property owners from subsidizing urban growth.
