ZONING APPLICATION, PETITIONS AND AFFIDAVITS PACKET
A zoning amendment changes the zoning classification of property from one primary zoning district to another,
or adds or deletes an overlay zoning district classification. The procedure for changing the zoning of a property
is regulated by Minnesota Statutes section 462.357, and by the Minneapolis Zoning Code. The following
information is provided only as a general guide to the process. Please consult with staff to discuss your
particular situation. Staff does not recommend a specific zoning classification and the information provided to
you should not be considered as support for your zoning request.
Many of the steps explained here are required in order to comply with state statute and court cases that govern
how property owners can seek zoning of their property.
In addition to submitting the required information contained in the General Land Use Application Packet the
following is required for a rezoning application:
(1) Complete FORM A found in the Zoning Application, Petitions and Affidavits Packet.
(2) If the applicant is not the owner of the property to be rezoned, an affidavit (FORM B) must be
submitted by the property owner(s) authorizing the applicant to seek the rezoning. This affidavit
must be notarized.
(3) If the property to be rezoned is subject to a contract for deed, an affidavit (FORM C) must be
submitted by the contract for deed purchaser(s) and seller(s). This affidavit must be notarized.
(4) If the applicant is proposing to change zoning from a residential zoning district to a commercial or
industrial zoning district the applicant must seek the consent of owners of the real estate located
within 100 feet of the subject site and any property contiguous to the property to be rezoned that is
currently owned, or that has been sold within the past year, by the same ownership as the subject
site (FORMS D AND E and possibly FORMS F AND G). Streets break contiguity, alleys do not. See
Table 1 for further details. Applicant obtains a list of property owners within 100 feet of the subject
property and a map showing these properties (mailing labels not required). The 100-foot radius
must be from the boundaries of the entire property and all contiguous property under the same
ownership as the property in question. The list and map must be purchased from Hennepin County
Taxpayer Services, A-600 Government Center, 4th Avenue S., Phone 612-348-5910. The applicant
must request that the map include underlying platted lots.
(a)
The applicant must identify any property contiguous to the property to be rezoned that
is currently owned, or has been sold within the past year by the same ownership as the
subject site. An affidavit (FORM D) must be submitted by the applicant. This affidavit
must be notarized.
(b)
The applicant takes the consent petition to the property owners on the list for their
signatures (FORM E). The rezoning cannot proceed and no public hearing on the
rezoning petition may be held, unless the owners of 2/3rds of the descriptions of real
estate within the 100-foot boundary consent to the rezoning by signing the petition.
The consent of the owners of the property for which rezoning is sought counts towards
fulfilling the 2/3rds consent provision.
