On May 25, 2010, Farmington Township received a favorable decision from the Minnesota Court of Appeals affirming dismissal of a case filed by two landowners who asserted their zoning certificate request must be automatically approved because the Township did not respond to their letter within 60 days. The Court found the “60-Day Rule” in Minnesota Statutes Section 15.99 never triggered because the landowners did not use the Township’s application form or submit the required application fee. Paul D. Reuvers and Andrea B. Wing represented Farmington Township.
