Country Joe, Inc. v. City of Eagan

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• concluding that the assessment at issue was a revenue-raising measure benefiting the public in general in part because the court found it significant that the revenue collected was not earmarked for certain projects, but instead used to fund all major street construction
• concluding a charge was not a valid “impact fee” because there was no showing that it was imposed in proportion to costs necessitated by the payers of the charge
• noting that the Legislature’s' grant of broad planning powers to municipalities did not include a similarly broad power to finance city planning through “road unit connection” fees imposed as a condition for a building permit
