§ 15.039

Rockford Township v. City of Rockford · 2000 1 citation

Until June 1, 1999, the Minnesota Municipal Board was authorized to oversee the alteration of municipal boundaries. Minn. Stat. § 414.01, subd. 1 (1998). The legislature terminated the municipal board by sunset provision effective June 1, 1999. Minn. Stat. § 414.11 (1998 & Supp.1999). It transferred the board’s duties and budget to the office of strategic and long-range planning. Id. Because the act providing for the transfer of powers from the Minnesota Municipal Board did not direct otherwise, the office of strategic and long-range planning carries out the municipal board’s transferred responsibilities as if it were continuing rather than assuming new responsibilities. Minn. Stat. § 15.039, subd. 2 (1998). Thus, we continue to use the statute’s term “municipal board” to refer to the governing agency whether the reference applies to the governing agency before or after June 1,1999.
