NEW SECTION. 367.10 EFFECT OF GROWTH PLAN. 14 7 A growth plan approved by the city development board shall 14 8 be the basis for the comprehensive plan of each county 14 9 required pursuant to section 335.5, if the county has adopted 14 10 a zoning ordinance, and for the comprehensive plan of each 14 11 city in the county required pursuant to section 414.3. The 14 12 county and each city shall amend its comprehensive plan to 14 13 conform to the growth plan approved by the city development 14 14 board. After a growth plan is approved, all land use 14 15 decisions made by the governing body of each city and county 14 16 and the city's or county's planning commission shall be 14 17 consistent with the growth plan. 14 18 Sec. 22.

The judicial review provisions of this 14 24 section and chapter 17A shall be the exclusive means by which 14 25 a person or party who is aggrieved or adversely affected by 14 26 action of the city development board may seek judicial review 14 27 of that board action. 14 28 2. Appeal must be filed within sixty days after the growth 14 29 plan is recorded upon final approval of the city development 14 30 board. In accordance with the Iowa rules of civil procedure 14 31 pertaining to service of process, copies of the petition shall 14 32 be served upon the city development board, the county, and 14 33 each city located in the county. 14 34 3. The court's review on appeal of a decision is limited 14 35 to questions relating to jurisdiction, regularity of 15 1 proceedings, and whether the decision appealed from is, by a 15 2 preponderance of the evidence, arbitrary, unreasonable, or 15 3 without substantial supporting evidence. The court may 15 4 reverse and remand a decision of the city development board 15 5 with appropriate directions to the county and the cities in 15 6 the county in order to identify and obtain adoption or 15 7 approval of a growth plan in conformance with the procedures 15 8 set forth in this chapter. 15 9 4. The filing of a petition for review does not stay the 15 10 effectiveness of the growth plan and the urban growth areas, 15 11 planned growth areas, and rural areas identified in the plan. 15 12 However, the court may order a stay upon appropriate terms if 15 13 it is shown to the satisfaction of the court that any party or 15 14 the public at large is likely to suffer significant injury if 15 15 a stay is not granted. If more than one petition for review 15 16 regarding a single board decision is filed, all such petitions 15 17 shall be consolidated and tried as a single civil action. 15 18 5.

Determine and report on the need for additional land 20 2 suitable for high-density industrial, commercial, and 20 3 residential development, after taking into account all areas 20 4 within the current boundaries of cities, that can be used, 20 5 reused, or redeveloped to meet such needs. 20 6 d. Determine and report on the likelihood that the 20 7 territory under consideration for inclusion within the planned 20 8 growth area will eventually incorporate as a new city or be 20 9 annexed. 20 10 e.

The 23 4 conversion of an application to a petition shall not prejudice 23 5 the status of the applicant. Judicial review of a board 23 6 decision under this subsection may be requested by an 23 7 aggrieved party. 23 8 c. Notwithstanding paragraph "a", if an application 23 9 proposes to annex territory that is not located within the 23 10 boundaries of the annexing city's urban growth area, the 23 11 application shall be dismissed. The board shall file for 23 12 record a statement of the dismissal and the reason for it, and 23 13 shall promptly notify the parties to the proceeding of its 23 14 decision. In the alternative, and if the offending area 23 15 comprises less than five percent of the total territory 23 16 proposed to be annexed, the board may amend the application to 23 17 sever such area from the territory to be annexed. 23 18 Sec. 31. Section 368.12, Code 1999, is amended to read as 23 19 follows: 23 20 368.12 DISMISSAL. 23 21 The board may dismiss a petitiononlyif it findsthat the23 22 one of the following: 23 23 1.

MORATORIUM ON ANNEXATION BY A CITY. 26 15 Notwithstanding chapter 368, division III, from the effective 26 16 date of this Act until July 1, 2001, the city development 26 17 board shall not accept a petition for a voluntary annexation 26 18 or a petition for an involuntary annexation of territory to a 26 19 city. The board shall also discontinue any actions or 26 20 proceedings relating to a hearing, approval, or election on a 26 21 petition or plan for an involuntary annexation of territory 26 22 pending before the board during the moratorium from the 26 23 effective date of this Act until July 1, 2001. On or after 26 24 July 1, 2001, the board may proceed with the implementation of 26 25 petitions and plans relating to involuntary annexations of 26 26 territory pursuant to chapter 368, division III. 26 27 Sec. 36. MORATORIUM ON CERTAIN DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS BY 26 28 COUNTIES. Notwithstanding chapter 354, from the effective 26 29 date of this Act until July 1, 2001, a county shall not issue 26 30 any permits, authorizations, or approvals necessary for the 26 31 subdivision and partitioning of, or construction on, any land 26 32 located in the unincorporated areas of the county. On or 26 33 after July 1, 2001, a county may proceed with issuance of any 26 34 permits, authorizations, or approvals necessary for the 26 35 subdivision and partitioning of, or construction on, any land 27 1 located in the unincorporated areas of the county. 27 2 Sec. 37. Sections 368.9 and 368.10, Code 1999, are 27 3 repealed. 27 4 Sec. 38. This Act, being deemed of immediate importance, 27 5 takes effect upon enactment. 27 6 EXPLANATION 27 7 This bill makes several changes relating to city 27 8 development, annexation, city and county land use planning, 27 9 and state land use planning. The bill enacts a new chapter 27 10 366 which establishes the city development board, a state land 27 11 use strategic development council, and the land use planning 27 12 commission for development management and farmland and natural 27 13 area protection. 27 14 The bill provides that the state land use strategic 27 15 development council is the state's principal agency overseeing 27 16 planning of major state sponsored projects. The council is a 27 17 consultative body that reviews policies regarding major 27 18 development initiatives undertaken by state agencies. The 27 19 council must establish, maintain, and revise a state strategic 27 20 development plan that provides for development by member state 27 21 agencies. The council has members representing major agencies 27 22 involved or interested in development, including the state 27 23 department of transportation, the department of natural 27 24 resources, the department of agriculture and land stewardship, 27 25 and the department of general services. 27 26 The land use planning commission for development management 27 27 and farmland and natural area protection is comprised of the 27 28 same membership as was represented on the legislative 27 29 commission. The commission is charged to monitor the 27 30 administration of the chapter and the extent to which the 27 31 purposes of the chapter are being satisfied. The commission 27 32 sunsets on July 1, 2003. 27 33 The bill requires each county and each city within a county 27 34 to establish a land use committee to develop a proposed growth 27 35 plan for the county and each city in the county. The land use 28 1 committee is composed of local government representatives, a 28 2 representative from the largest school district in the county, 28 3 a representative from the county's soil conservation district, 28 4 and representatives of the general public. The land use 28 5 committee in each county must develop a recommended growth 28 6 plan designating urban growth areas, planned growth areas, and 28 7 rural areas in the county. 28 8 The recommended growth plan must be ratified by the county 28 9 and each city in the county, with the exception of those 28 10 cities whose boundaries are also the boundaries of other 28 11 cities or of other cities and another state. If the county 28 12 and cities cannot agree on ratification of the recommended 28 13 growth plan, it is sent to the city development board for 28 14 resolution of the dispute. Any changes made by the board may 28 15 be ratified by the county and cities in the county. However, 28 16 if not ratified, the amendments made by the city development 28 17 board are still effective. After a growth plan is ratified, 28 18 it is submitted to the city development board for its 28 19 approval. The growth plan approved by the city development 28 20 board takes effect upon recording with the county recorder. 28 21 An approved and recorded growth plan remains in effect for 28 22 five years before it may be reviewed for changes, absent a 28 23 showing of extraordinary circumstances necessitating a change 28 24 in the plan. The bill requires that cities and counties, if 28 25 applicable, shall conform their comprehensive plans to the 28 26 growth plan. 28 27 The bill allows for judicial review of a growth plan 28 28 approved by the city development board. Appeal must be filed 28 29 within 60 days after the growth plan is recorded with the 28 30 county recorder and the appeal may be taken by the affected 28 31 county, an affected city, a resident of the county, or an 28 32 owner of real property located in the county. The filing of 28 33 an appeal does not stay effectiveness of a growth plan unless 28 34 it is shown that a party or the general public is likely to 28 35 suffer significant injury if a stay is not granted. 29 1 The bill amends the law on annexation by requiring 29 2 dismissal of a voluntary annexation application or an 29 3 involuntary annexation petition if the application or petition 29 4 identifies territory to be annexed that is not within the 29 5 urban growth area of the annexing city. However, if the 29 6 territory that is not located within the urban growth area of 29 7 the annexing city comprises less than 5 percent of the 29 8 territory to be annexed, the city development board may amend 29 9 the application or petition to sever the offending territory. 29 10 The bill also provides that an annexation or severance of 29 11 territory to or from a city shall be approved by a majority of 29 12 the city voters voting on the issue and by a majority of the 29 13 voters voting and residing in the territory to be affected by 29 14 the annexation or severance. The city voters and the voters 29 15 of the affected territory must separately approve the 29 16 proposal. Under current law, the proposal is authorized if a 29 17 majority of the combined votes of the city voters and the 29 18 affected territory voters approve the proposal. 29 19 The bill provides that, effective July 1, 2001, certain 29 20 specified loan and grant programs shall be unavailable in 29 21 those counties and cities that do not have growth plans 29 22 approved by the city development board and shall remain 29 23 unavailable until growth plans have been approved. 29 24 The bill places a moratorium on annexation by a city from 29 25 the effective date of the bill until July 1, 2001. The 29 26 moratorium also applies to annexation agreements between 29 27 cities. The bill also imposes a moratorium on counties 29 28 prohibiting them from issuing any permits, authorizations, or 29 29 approvals necessary for the subdivision and partitioning of, 29 30 or construction on, any land located in the unincorporated 29 31 areas of the county. The moratorium on counties is also in 29 32 effect from the effective date of the bill to July 1, 2001. 29 33 The bill takes effect upon enactment. 29 34 LSB 1057HH 78 29 35 sc/gg/8.1
