(1) as defined in chapter 297A or in Minnesota Rules, chapter 8130; or

(b) This subdivision does not apply to terms that are defined by the authorizing special law.
(c) This subdivision applies notwithstanding whether a local government unit or group of units adopts consistent definitions into local law.
