This bill aims to limit the powers of municipalities in Minnesota regarding the requirement of planned unit development (PUD) agreements for residential developments. Specifically, it stipulates that municipalities cannot mandate a PUD agreement if the proposed residential development adheres to existing zoning ordinances or qualifies as a conditional use. This change is intended to streamline the development process and reduce unnecessary regulatory burdens on residential projects.

Additionally, the bill establishes new regulations for the handling of planned unit development agreements. It requires municipalities to publicly post these agreements on their websites at least seven days before the governing body reviews them. In cases where a municipality lacks a website, the agreement must be made available for public review at the city hall. Furthermore, once a PUD agreement is approved, it cannot be modified without the consent of all parties involved. These provisions aim to enhance transparency and ensure that all stakeholders are in agreement before any changes are made to the development agreements.
