STEP FOUR PUBLICATION REQUIREMENTS AFTER ADOPTING THE MBC  


Latest version.
  • Once the City Council has voted to adopt the MBC by adoption of the Model MBC Adoption Ordinance, all normal publication requirements under M.S. § 412.191 must be met. The entire MBC is not published, only the ordinance adopting the MBC. The Model Adoption MBC Ordinance must be published within 45 days of passage. The MBC will become effective upon publication in statutory cities. Home rule charter cities may have a different effective date in their charter and should consult their City Attorney on this issue.
