the City and Township cannot agree on the County commissioner member to
serve on the JPB, the City and Township shall alternately strike members
serving on the County Board until only one County Board member remains.
The remaining County Board member not stricken shall be the member
appointed to serve on the JPB.
b. The JPB shall serve as the "governing body" and "board of appeals and
adjustments" for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, sections 462.357 and 462.358
within the OAA and shall have all of the powers contained in sections 462.351

to members serving on the JPB or retaining consultants to provide services to
the JPB shall be approved and equally paid by the members' respective
governing bodies.

e. Except as otherwise provided, any action of the JPB to exercise its authority as
specified herein must be preceded by a majority vote (at least 3 out of the 5
members) of the members of the JPB voting on the prevailing side.
f. As soon as practicable after execution of this Joint Resolution, the JPB shall
review the area included in the OAA, existing comprehensive plans in the City,
Township and County, and determine whether the JPB should develop a joint
land use plan for the OAA. If a joint plan is developed, the City and Township
shall thereafter review and comment on the plan. The City and Township shall
consider incorporating the developed plan or plan elements into the City's and
Township's respective comprehensive plans.
g. The JPB shall require that the existing Township zoning or Wright County
zoning, whichever is applicable and more restrictive, in effect within the OAA
on'the effective date of this Joint Resolution, remain in full force and effect and
unchanged during the term of this Joint Resolution, unless said area or portion
thereof is either first annexed or said zoning change is otherwise approved by a
M
supermajority vote (4 out of 5 members) of the JPB. Any decision by the JPB
to zone or rezone portions of the OAA shall be subject to review and comment
by the City and Township prior to such zoning or rezoning becoming effective.

entitlement transfers for agricultural lot splits and property transfers between
family members under the current Wright County Zoning Ordinance, as
adopted by the Township.
h. Failure of the JPB to exercise any of its authority as described herein shall not
render this Joint Resolution or any other provisions contained herein invalid or
unenforceable, and the terms and conditions contained in this Joint Resolution
shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and binding upon the parties
hereto.
I. Each member serving on the JPB shall serve a period of one year ending
December 31. Members shall serve at the discretion of their respective
governing bodies and members may be removed at any time prior to the

in violation of this Paragraph 3 be submitted to binding arbitration.
The aggrieved party shall contact the Bureau of Mediation Services for a list of
five (5) qualified arbitrators and the City and Township shall, within ten (10)
days of receipt of said list, alternately strike from the list until only a single
arbitrator remains. The City and Township may alternately jointly agree to an
arbitrator. The City and Township shall be the parties to any arbitration related
J
to a decision of the JPB. The JPB itself shall not act as a parry to the
proceeding. The selected arbitrator shall hold a hearing on the matter within 60
days of selection and issue a binding decision regarding whether the
requirements of Paragraph 3 have been met within 3 0 days of the hearing.
Failure of either party to participate in the arbitrator selection process shall
result in the participating parry selecting the arbitrator. Failure of the City or
Township to appear at arbitration shall result in default judgment for the party
appearing. The cost of the arbitrator shall be bome equally by the City and
Township.
4. Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City and Township shall combine in their
entirety under the following circumstances: l) at such time as the Township and the City
adopt a joint resolution so providing; or 2) at such time as seventy-five percent (75%) of
the Township, as the Township exists on the effective date of this Joint Resolution, is
annexed to the City, whichever comes first. Annexation by the City of the remainder of
the Township shall be accomplished in accordance with Paragraph 13. The City shall
hire any remaining Township personnel following the effective date of annexation of the
remainder of the Township. As soon as practicable following the effective date of
annexation resulting in the merger of the City and Township, the City will hold municipal
elections for all of the City Council and Mayor positions.
5. Adopt and Enforce Regulations. The City and Township agree to enact, adopt, and
strictly enforce all such resolutions, ordinances, or regulations, as may be or shall be
necessary to give full effect to the stipulations contained in this Joint Resolution.
6. Tax Reimbursement. Upon the annexation of land located within the OAA pursuant to
Paragraph 13 of this Joint Resolution, the City shall reimburse the Township for the loss
of taxes from the property so annexed in accordance with the following:
a. In the year when the City could first levy on the annexed area, the City shall
make a cash payment to the Township in an amount equal to four (4) times the
property taxes distributed to the Township in regard to the annexed area in the
last year that property taxes from the annexed area were payable to the
Township.
b. Thereafter, the City will no longer reimburse the Township. The City shall
make payment as _contemplated herein no later than December 31 of the first
year following the year when the City could first levy on the annexed area and
for any subsequent years.
7. Provision of Services. After annexation of land located within the OAA, the Citv shall be
responsible for providing municipal governmental services to the annexed area. Sanitary
sewer or water services, in the City's discretion, shall be provided to an area annexed
with existing or proposed residential development within three (3) years after the
I
effective date of the annexation. Sewer or water services, in the City's discretion, shall
be provided to an area annexed with existing or proposed commercial, industrial,
governmental or institutional development within five (5) years after the effective date of
annexation. In the event that the City extends trunk sewer and/or water lines across a
portion of the OAA remaining in the Township in order to serve an area annexed by the
City, the individual properties remaining in the Township that abut the City trunk sewer
and/or water line extended shall not be charged any trunk sewer or water line charges,
fees or assessments by the City for the trunk sewer and/or water line abutting said
properties until said properties are annexed by the City and are platted and developed.
A failure on the part of the City, not due to circumstances beyond the City's control, to
provide either of such sewer or water services within the time period specified following
the effective date of annexation may subject the area so annexed to be deemed null and
void by resolution of the Township adopted at a regular meeting of the Township, and the
Township may thereafter petition the Department of Administration Municipal Boundary
Adjustments Office, or its successor agency, for detachment of the area in accordance
with Minnesota Statutes, Section 414.06. The City shall not oppose the Township's
petition for detachment provided it meets the conditions contained in this Joint
Resolution.
As an alternative to initiating a detachment proceeding, the Township may elect, by
resolution adopted at a Township Board meeting, to have the City reimburse the
Township for taxes lost on the applicable property anriexed by the City at the Township's
tax rate applicable in the year of annexation until the services required under this
Paragraph are provided to the annexed property by the City.
In order to act under this Paragraph, the Township shall make an election by resolution at
a meeting of the Township Board to either; 1) initiate a detachment proceeding, or 2) seek
tax reimbursement as provided in this Paragraph, and provide notice to the City of the
election, within ninety (90) days of the City's failure to provide said service as required
under this Paragraph, or the Township may only seek tax reimbursement as provided in
this Paragraph and waives the election to initiate a detachment proceeding under Section
414.06.
For purposes of this Paragraph, the City will be deemed to have met the obligation to
provide sanitary sewer or water service to an annexed area if within the timeframes
specified herein following an annexation of an area, the City awards a contract to a
contractor to construct a sewer or water service project making municipal sanitary sewer
or water service available to an area annexed under the terms of this Joint Resolution.
Every Annexation Resolution adopted under Paragraph 13 of this Joint Resolution
resulting in the annexation of land located within the OAA shall be treated separately for
purposes of compliance with this Paragraph 7.
VA
In the event that the City annexes land in accordance with a triggering event contained in
this Joint Resolution and said land is identified in the City's comprehensive plan for open
space or park preservation, the requirements contained in this Paragraph do not apply to
said annexation since the intent is that said areas would remain as open space or park land
and would not need City sewer or water service.
S. Township Maintenance of Services. The Township agrees that it will be responsible for
normal and regular maintenance of all Township roads, streets, bridges, drainage facilities
and other public rights-of-way that it is currently maintaining within the designated OAA
prior to annexation thereof. Maintenance of Township infrastructure within the
designated OAA by the Township shall be consistent with other standard maintenance
practices employed by the Township elsewhere in the Township.
9. Line Roads. For any Township roads that become the boundary line for the City and
Township as a result of an annexation, the City shall assume responsibility for road
maintenance and improvement for the entire section of the Township road that becomes
the boundary line adjacent to the City.
10. No Annexation Outside the OAA. The parties agree that the City will not initiate any
annexations outside the OAA while this agreement is in effect. Notwithstanding the
forgoing, the City may initiate an annexation under Chapter 414 if the City is ordered by
the State Pollution Control Agency or the Department of Health to provide sewer or water
service to a portion of the Township for the protection of the public health and safety
and/or because of environmental concerns. Further, the City will not file any petitions for
a contested case annexation within the OAA or the remainder of the Township outside the
OAA during the term of this Joint Resolution, provided that the Township does not seek
to incorporate during the term of this Joint Resolution.
11. Expansion of OAA. For purposes of expansion of the OAA under this Paragraph, the
OAA designated herein shall be divided into five sections shown on Exhibit C. The
individual sections of the OAA as designated in and shown on Exhibit C shall be
expanded at such time as: 1) 75% of the land (excluding wetlands, the named
subdivisions reference in Paragraph 2.b. of this Joint Resolution and lakes) within an
individual section of the OAA is annexed; or 2) the City and Township jointly agree to
expand a section, whichever comes first. In the event that one or more of the above
conditions exists, the City and Township agree that the boundary line of the section of the
OAA meeting the condition contained herein shall be expanded outward one-half section
along the entirety of that section of the OAA boundary line as it exists at that time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City and Township may agree in writing to a different
expansion area greater than or less than the one-half section expansion area provided for
herein.
The City shall notify the Township in the event that any of the conditions stated in this
Paragraph exist. Thereafter, the City shall file the appropriate adjustments to the OAA or
0
any section thereof, within ninety (90) days of January 1 of each year, with the
Department of Administration, or its successor agency, including a new Amended Exhibit
A, Amended Exhibit B, and Amended Exhibit C. which shall replace the Exhibit A,
Exhibit B, and Exhibit C filed with this Joint Resolution, along with a letter so providing
describing the adjustments to each section of the OAA and referencing this section of this
Joint Resolution.
12. Withdraw Contested Case Petition. The City agrees to withdraw its pending annexation
petition, File No.A-6979, as soon as practicable after execution and filing of this Joint
Resolution with the State.
13. No Hearing Required. All annexations contemplated by this Joint Resolution in the OAA
shall not require a hearing or any consideration by the State Department of
Administration, or its successor agency. The City and Township agree that, upon the
occurrence of an event triggering annexation as provided herein for any land located
within the OAA, the City shall provide written notice of such occurrence to the
To and upon receipt of a resolution of the City (referred to as the "Annexation
Resolution") describing such area along with a copy of this Joint Resolution, the
Department of Administration or its successor agency, may review and, comment, but
shall within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Annexation Resolution and a copy of this
Joint Resolution, order the annexation of the area designated in the Annexation
Resolution in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Joint Resolution. The City
and Township agree that no alteration of the stated boundaries as described in the
Annexation Resolution is appropriate, that no consideration by the Department of
Administration, or its successor agency, is necessary, and that all terms and conditions for
annexation are provided for in this .Joint Resolution. Provided that the requisite terms
and conditions have been met as contained in this Joint Resolution, the Township shall
not object to an annexation initiated by the City filing an Annexation Resolution with the
Department of Administration, or its successor agency. As of the effective date of this
Joint Resolution, there is no election requirement in the law to effect or accomplish an
annexation. No such election shall be required or apply to any annexation provided
herein either now or during any period during which this Joint Resolution is in effect.
