Cities that meet the requirements for the <br />incentive will earn a savings of as much as $3,750 per land use claim. Cities that do not meet the <br />requirement will pay a higher rate. The online training is available now through the League of <br />Minnesota Cities website under City Learning Point. The League stated they are working <br />towards a series of three online training courses over the next couple years. There is one training <br />course available now on the website "Land Use Basics: Grasping the Ground Rules".
