The bond shall be authorized, issued, sold, executed, and delivered in the manner provided by Minnesota Statutes, chapter 475, including submission of the proposition to the electors under Minnesota Statutes, section 475.58. After authorization by the electors under Minnesota Statutes, section 475.58, a resolution of the board levying taxes for the payment of bonds and interest on them and pledging the proceeds of the levies for the payment of the bonds and interest on them shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, chapter 475, with respect to the levying of taxes for their payment.

Subd. 2. [APPROPRIATION.] There is annually appropriated from the distribution of taconite production tax revenues to the taconite environmental protection fund pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 298.28, subdivision 11, and to the northeast Minnesota economic protection trust pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 298.28, subdivisions 9 and 11, in equal shares, an amount sufficient to pay when due 80 percent of the principal and interest on the bonds issued pursuant to subdivision 1. If the annual distribution to the northeast Minnesota economic protection trust is insufficient to pay its share after fulfilling any obligations of the trust under Minnesota Statutes, section 298.225 or 298.293, the deficiency shall be appropriated from the taconite environmental protection fund.

Subd. 3. [DISTRICT OBLIGATIONS.] Bonds issued under authority of this section shall be the general obligations of the school district, for which its full faith and credit and unlimited taxing powers shall be pledged. If there are any deficiencies in the amount received pursuant to subdivision 2, they shall be made good by general levies, not subject to limit, on all taxable properties in the district in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 475.64. If any deficiency levies are necessary, the school board may effect a temporary loan or loans on certificates of indebtedness issued in anticipation of them to meet payments of principal or interest on the bonds due or about to become due.

Subd. 4. [DISTRICT LEVY.] The school board shall by resolution levy on all property in the school district subject to the general ad valorem school tax levies, and not subject to taxation under Minnesota Statutes, sections 298.23 to 298.28, a direct annual ad valorem tax for each year of the term of the bonds in amounts that, if collected in full, will produce the amounts needed to meet when due 20 percent of the principal and interest payments on the bonds. A copy of the resolution shall be filed, and the necessary taxes shall be extended, assessed, collected, and remitted in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 475.61.

Subd. 5. [LEVY LIMITATIONS.] Taxes levied pursuant to this section shall be disregarded in the calculation of any other tax levies or limits on tax levies provided by other law.

[BONDING LIMITATIONS.] Bonds may be issued under authority of this section notwithstanding any limitations upon the indebtedness of a district, and their amounts shall not be included in computing the indebtedness of a district for any purpose, including the issuance of subsequent bonds and the incurring of subsequent indebtedness.

Subd. 7. [TERMINATION OF APPROPRIATION.] The appropriation authorized in subdivision 2 shall terminate upon payment or maturity of the last of those bonds.

Subd. 8. [BOND ISSUE REQUIREMENT.] No bonds may be issued under this section after March 1, 2000, unless they are issued under a contract in effect on or before March 1, 2000.

Subd. 9. [LOCAL APPROVAL.] This section is effective for independent school district No. 712, Mountain Iron-Buhl, the day after its governing body complies with Minnesota Statutes, section 645.021, subdivision 3.

Sec. 17. [BONDS PAID FROM TACONITE PRODUCTION TAX REVENUES.]

Subdivision 1. [REFUNDING BONDS.] The appropriation of funds from the distribution of taconite production tax revenues to the taconite environmental protection tax fund and the northeast Minnesota economic protection fund made by Laws 1988, chapter 718, article 7, sections 62 and 63; Laws 1989, chapter 329, article 5, section 20; Laws 1990, chapter 604, article 8, section 13; Laws 1992, chapter 499, article 5, section 29; and Laws 1996, chapter 412, article 5, sections 18 to 20; and by section 16, shall continue to apply to bonds issued under Minnesota Statutes, chapter 475, to refund bonds originally issued pursuant to those chapters.

Subd. 2. [LOCAL PAYMENTS.] School districts that are required in Laws 1988, chapter 718, article 7, sections 62 and 63; Laws 1989, chapter 329, article 5, section 20; Laws 1990, chapter 604, article 8, section 13; Laws 1992, chapter 499, article 5, section 29; and sections 18 to 20, to impose levies to pay debt service on the bonds issued under those provisions to the extent the principal and interest on the bonds is not paid by distributions from the taconite environmental protection fund and the northeast Minnesota economic protection trust, may pay their portion of the principal and interest from any funds available to them. To the extent a school district uses funds other than the proceeds of a property tax levy to pay its share of the principal and interest on the bonds, the requirement to impose a property tax to pay the local share does not apply to the school district."

Page 129, line 7, after the period, insert "Up to $10,000 of the appropriation in section 30 may be used for the planning of a multipurpose community education and recreation center at a northeast park adjacent to a northeast school."

Amend the title as follows:

4A.08 [COMMUNITY-BASED PLANNING GOALS.]

The goals of community-based planning are:

(1) [CITIZEN PARTICIPATION.] To develop a community-based planning process with broad citizen participation in order to build local capacity to plan for sustainable development and to benefit from the insights, knowledge, and support of local residents. The process must include at least one citizen from each affected unit of local government;


Journal of the House - 84th Day - Wednesday, March 4, 1998 - Top of Page 7950

(2) [COOPERATION.] To promote cooperation among communities to work towards the most efficient, planned, and cost-effective delivery of government services by, among other means, facilitating cooperative agreements among adjacent communities and to coordinate planning to ensure compatibility of one community's development with development of neighboring communities;

(3) [ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.] To create sustainable economic development strategies and provide economic opportunities throughout the state that will achieve a balanced distribution of growth statewide;

(4) [CONSERVATION.] To protect, preserve, and enhance the state's resources, including agricultural land, forests, surface water and groundwater, recreation and open space, scenic areas, and significant historic and archaeological sites;

(5) [LIVABLE COMMUNITY DESIGN.] To strengthen communities by following the principles of livable community design in development and redevelopment, including integration of all income and age groups, mixed land uses and compact development, affordable and life-cycle housing, green spaces, access to public transit, bicycle and pedestrian ways, and enhanced aesthetics and beauty in public spaces;

(6) [HOUSING.] To provide and preserve an adequate supply of affordable and life-cycle housing throughout the state;

(7) [TRANSPORTATION.] To focus on the movement of people and goods, rather than on the movement of automobiles, in transportation planning, and to maximize the efficient use of the transportation infrastructure by increasing the availability and use of appropriate public transit throughout the state through land-use planning and design that makes public transit economically viable and desirable;

(8) [LAND-USE PLANNING.] To establish a community-based framework as a basis for all decisions and actions related to land use;

(9) [PUBLIC INVESTMENTS.] To account for the full environmental, social, and economic costs of new development, including infrastructure costs such as transportation, sewers and wastewater treatment, water, schools, recreation, and open space, and plan the funding mechanisms necessary to cover the costs of the infrastructure;

(10) [PUBLIC EDUCATION.] To support research and public education on a community's and the state's finite capacity to accommodate growth, and the need for planning and resource management that will sustain growth; and

(11) [SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT.] To provide a better quality of life for all residents while maintaining nature's ability to function over time by minimizing waste, preventing pollution, promoting efficiency, and developing local resources to revitalize the local economy; and

(12) [PROPERTY RIGHTS.] To ensure that private property shall not be taken, and to provide that when a new law, rule, regulation, land use plan or ordinance, as applied, unfairly affects real property, the owner of that real property is entitled to relief for the actual loss to the fair market value of the real property caused by the action."
