  7  1 board of supervisors and each city council shall by
  7  2 resolution either ratify or reject the recommended
  7  3 strategic development plan.  A city or county that

  7  6 plan on the last day of the sixty-day period.  If the
  7  7 strategic development plan is ratified, the committee
  7  8 shall submit the plan to the land management planning
  7  9 board for approval.

  8 13 STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.
  8 14    After the board has approved a strategic

  8 16 plan on file and shall forward a copy to the county
  8 17 auditor who shall record the plan in the office of
  8 18 county recorder no later than five days after

  8 20    Sec.    .  NEW SECTION.  366.9  DURATION OF PLANS
  8 21 – REVIEW AND AMENDMENT.
  8 22    After a strategic development plan has been
  8 23 recorded with the county recorder, the plan shall
  8 24 remain in effect for not less than five years absent a
  8 25 showing of extraordinary circumstances necessitating a
  8 26 change in the plan.  After expiration of the five-year
  8 27 period, the county or a city in the county may propose
  8 28 an amendment to the strategic development plan or may
  8 29 propose a review of the plan by filing notice with the
  8 30 county board of supervisors for the county and the
  8 31 city council of each city in the county.  Upon receipt
  8 32 of such notice by the county and each city, the county
  8 33 board of supervisors shall promptly reconvene the
  8 34 local strategic planning committee.  The burden of
  8 35 proving the reasonableness of a proposed amendment to
  8 36 the plan shall be upon the party proposing the
  8 37 amendment.  The procedures for amending the strategic
  8 38 development plan shall be the same as the procedures
  8 39 set forth in this chapter for creating the original
  8 40 strategic development plan.
  8 41    Sec.    .  NEW SECTION.  366.10  JUDICIAL REVIEW.
  8 42    1.  The county, a city in the county, a resident of
  8 43 the county, or an owner of real property located in
  8 44 the county may seek judicial review of a decision of
  8 45 the board relating to the strategic development plan
  8 46 presented to the board for its approval.  The judicial
  8 47 review provisions of this section and chapter 17A
  8 48 shall be the exclusive means by which a person or
  8 49 party who is aggrieved or adversely affected by action
  8 50 of the board may seek judicial review of the action of
  9  1 the board or of a local government.
  9  2    2.  A petition for judicial review must be filed
  9  3 within sixty days after the strategic development plan
  9  4 is recorded with the county recorder.  In accordance
  9  5 with the Iowa rules of civil procedure pertaining to
  9  6 service of process, copies of the petition shall be
  9  7 served upon the board.
  9  8    3.  The court's review is limited to questions
  9  9 relating to jurisdiction, regularity of proceedings,
  9 10 and whether the action of the board is, by a
  9 11 preponderance of the evidence, arbitrary,
  9 12 unreasonable, or without substantial supporting
  9 13 evidence.  The court may nullify an action of the
  9 14 board and return the plan with appropriate directions
  9 15 to the board.
  9 16    4.  The filing of a petition for judicial review
  9 17 does not stay the effectiveness of the strategic
  9 18 development plan or recognition of strategic
  9 19 development areas and strategic preservation areas
  9 20 identified in the plan.  However, the court may order
  9 21 a stay upon appropriate terms if it is shown to the
  9 22 satisfaction of the court that any party or the public
  9 23 at large is likely to suffer significant injury if a
  9 24 stay is not granted.  If more than one petition for
  9 25 judicial review regarding a single board action is
  9 26 filed, all such petitions shall be consolidated and
  9 27 tried as a single civil action.
  9 28    5.  The following portions of section 17A.19 are
  9 29 not applicable to this chapter:
  9 30    a.  The portion of subsection 2 relating to where
